Will your TV run GhostScreen?
Most modern screens already have everything they need — a browser and a network connection. Pick yours below for a straight answer, and what to do if the answer is no.
Step 1 — what kind of screen is it?
Step 2 — roughly how old is it?
Step 3 — how is it connected?
Known platforms
Browser-first · player optionalLG webOS
SupportedwebOS 4.0 and newer. Earlier sets we'd pair with a player.
Amazon Fire TV
SupportedRuns in Silk, or as a dedicated player on any HDMI screen.
Google TV / Chromecast
SupportedChrome-based, so playback and fonts behave predictably.
Android TV (Sony, Philips, TCL)
VariesBrowser quality differs by manufacturer — we test before rollout.
Commercial signage panels
SupportedSoC browsers on pro panels run the player without extra hardware.
Four requirements. That's the whole list.
A browser
Anything modern. If it loads a website, it can load the player.
A network
Wired or Wi-Fi. Media caches locally, so a dropout doesn't black the screen.
Power that stays on
Screens on a timer are fine — they re-pair themselves on wake.
1080p or better
Portrait or landscape. Layouts render per orientation.
If it isn't compatible
A player turns any screen with an HDMI port into a GhostScreen. One-off cost, no contract attached to it.
Streaming stick
Fire TV Stick or Android player. Keep the one you have or add one where the TV's browser won't do.
About £60Wired mini player
Same idea, but on ethernet — better where the Wi-Fi is patchy or the screen never sleeps.
About £100Professional player
For five- or six-panel walls that must stay frame-perfect, and estates with an AV contractor.
From £250Questions we get asked
Do I have to buy hardware from you?
No. If your screens pair stickless, there's nothing to buy. If they need a player, you can source it yourself — we'll tell you exactly what to get.
What happens when the internet drops?
The player keeps showing the cached playlist and re-syncs when the line comes back. A dropped connection never leaves a black screen.
Can I mix compatible TVs and players in one site?
Yes. The dashboard doesn't care how a screen is paired — they group and schedule together either way.
Does the TV need to be a signage model?
No. Commercial panels are sturdier for all-day use, but a consumer smart TV with a browser runs the same player.
How long does pairing take?
About a minute per screen: open the player page, read the six-digit code, type it into the dashboard.
Still not sure? Send us a photo of the screen.
Tell us the make, model and where it's mounted. We'll confirm whether it pairs stickless or needs a player before you commit to anything.
