Accessing Support From the Help Menu

During a live match, you might need to quickly access support materials or efficiently report a software issue. For this reason, we have integrated these features directly into the NV Play Cricket for Windows software, connecting it with our online support platform: support.nvplay.com.

Access Support Content

The Help menu within the NV Play Cricket software includes several options to access help and step-by-step guidance on scoring, troubleshooting, and learning more about the software.

  • Getting Started: Opens a quick start guide and video that covers the basics of scoring a match: Watch the Quick Start Video.
  • Access Support Documents: Opens the online help, where you can browse through guides and troubleshooting articles: Explore the Knowledge Base.
  • Report an Issue: Opens the Report an Issue dialogue where you can provide details of any software problems you encounter.
  • User Group: Links to our online community forum, where you can engage in discussions with other users and share feedback and feature requests. Join the NV Play User Group.
  • View Log: Opens the Log Viewer dialogue, though this is now largely replaced by the Report an Issue feature.
  • Check for Updates: Checks if a new software update is available. Selecting this will either confirm that you are running the latest version or Prompt you to close and reopen NV Play Cricket to download a newer version. If an update is available, NV Play Cricket will also notify you upon launch, prompting you to update.
  • Release Notes: Opens the Release Notes area of our customer help site, where you can stay updated with the latest changes, enhancements, and bug fixes.
  • About NV Play Cricket: Displays key software information, including the current version number, who the software is licensed to (organisation/user), the machine name, and a shortcut to check for updates.

How to Report an Issue

To report an issue from the help menu:

  1. Got to Help > Report an Issue. The Report an Issue dialogue opens. Your Name and Email Address are auto-filled (edit if needed).
  2. Provide a clear subject and describe your issue in detail.
  3. Click Send to submit the issue.

If support has asked you to send system diagnostics only (without entering details), click the Send Diagnostics Only link in the bottom-left corner of the dialogue.

This process automatically generates a support ticket and sends the necessary computer data for faster troubleshooting. Our team will respond as soon as possible.
