TV & Car Stereo
Watch YouTube on TVs, start live channels and play music in your car.
What it is
Play YouTube on any TV in the world or from a car stereo. Everyone nearby sees and hears the same thing, louder when they are close.
How it works
TVs
- Stand near a TV and type
/tv. - Pick YouTube and paste a link. The video plays for everyone nearby. Only YouTube links work (youtube.com or youtu.be); other links are refused.
- TV Channels lets you flip through live channels, Set Volume changes only your own volume, Turn Off stops the TV.
Live channels: staff type /broadcast, give a channel name and a YouTube link. Every free TV shows it. Type /broadcast again to stop.
Car stereo
- Buy a Car Radio at Digital Den ($180).
- Sit in a car and use the item. The stereo opens.
- Paste a YouTube link (other sites are refused) and press Play. Use the buttons for pause, skip 10 seconds, loop and volume. The music belongs to the car, so it keeps playing when you get out.
