Will your TV run GhostScreen?

Most shops need nothing new. Check each screen on your wall and we'll total up the hardware, if there's any at all.

Question 1 of 3

What brand is the TV?

Tip: the brand is usually on the bottom edge of the frame or on the remote.

This is your TV. Let's set it up.
30sStanding by the TV? Open ghostscreens.com/play in its browser. If a six-digit code appears, it works.

All a screen needs is four things.

1

A web browser

If it can open a website, it can show your menu.

2

Internet

Cable or Wi-Fi. Menus are saved on the TV, so a dropout won't black it out.

3

Power

On a timer is fine. It reconnects by itself when it wakes up.

4

HD or better

Portrait or landscape. Menus resize to fit.

TV too old? Plug this in.

Any screen with an HDMI port becomes a GhostScreen. One-off cost, and you can buy it anywhere.

Most older TVs

Streaming stick

A Fire TV Stick or similar. Plug into HDMI, done.

~$70

Wired mini player

Same idea with an ethernet port, for screens that never switch off.

~$120
Board walls & chains

Pro player

Keeps a five- or six-screen wall perfectly in sync.

Questions

No. If your TVs work as they are there's nothing to buy. If one needs a stick, buy it wherever you like and we'll tell you which one.

Still not sure? Send us a photo.

A snap of the TV and the label on the back is enough. We'll tell you if it works before you spend anything.
