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 (7-02-2024)

  • Press F1 to view keyboard shortcuts; the close button in the window title bar will take you back to the TV or you can press back on your browser.
  • Number keys on the numpad can be used to change channels as well as the number keys at the top of your keyboard now. The Keymaster library providing shortcuts was updated to a fork with extended functionality.
  • Added Video Game engine that supports NES, SNES, Genesis and Game Boy emulation using Nostalgist.js; there's an example at the bottom of the provided config file.
  • Line inputs (defined by negative channel numbers) are now hidden from the channel guide.
