Movie Night: Streaming Sites That Shine in TV Browsers

Most streaming sites work inside a browser tab — once you get rid of the signup overlays and the cramped players. That's exactly what web2tv does for the biggest video destinations: it forces players full-width, enables native controls, and hides the walls between you and the play button.

How to get the best picture

  1. Use the remote's play/pause key in fullscreen — it maps to native controls.
  2. If a site starts with autoplay disabled, press OK on the big play button while it's focused.
  3. For long watches, favourite the page so it's one click from the web2tv home screen.

Worried about HDMI quality? Streaming sites in a modern TV browser output full resolution — the browser isn't the bottleneck, the site's player is. When the player goes fullscreen inside web2tv, you get the same bitrate you'd get on a laptop.
