Read this first!
Get started quickly:
- Put the files in the root directory of a web server. For now we require serving out of the root directory.
- Visit index.html and it should load the example configuration.
Basic keyboard controls:
- M toggles mute
- Up / Down control channels
- Left / Right control volume
In the browser you need to un-mute when the page loads because of autoplay restrictions.
Edit the example configuration file (config.tvs.yml
) and make it your own.

Update Notes (7-08-2024)
- Added screen bevels; 2 different types are present by default. They can be enabled or disabled using "alt + 6" and the type can be changed with "shift + alt + 6". You can also default this type via the config file:
bezel: flat
# or
bezel: cylindrical
- Fixed the help page to add some missed keyboard shortcuts.
- Started the process of reorganizing resources so that eventually TVS will be able to run from a subdirectory.
