What can I paste?
Any web link. YouTube, Twitch, Kick, Rumble, Vimeo and Dailymotion links are converted to their
player versions automatically; everything else is loaded as a page. Several links at once work too —
separate them with spaces, commas or new lines, and each becomes a tile.
Where is this tile from?
Right-click a tile, press I, or use the info button in its hover
pill. The panel shows the type, host, source and player URLs, framing status and audio. The
Headers tab shows what the browser allows (cross-origin frames hide their
response headers); View switches tile headers on or off — they are off by default.
Why is a tile black, or showing an error?
The site refuses to be embedded — it sends X-Frame-Options or a CSP rule that blocks
framing, and no web page can override that. Some sites go further and show only their chat or a
blank box when framed. Use More → Window wall (W) to open every tile as a real
window. A few known sites (StreamCorner, DamiTV, CXtv, IPTV Web, TVNow and the other aggregators)
skip the tile entirely and open straight in a window; any other site that redirects out of a tile
is detected the first time and remembered.
Direct stream files (.m3u8, .mp4) play in the built-in player instead
of a frame, but the server has to allow cross-origin reads — if it doesn't, the tile says so.
What about ads and pop-ups?
Every tile is sandboxed, so a site inside it cannot open pop-up windows, redirect this page,
trigger a download or spam alert boxes. Ads painted inside a stream come from that site and
can't be removed from outside the frame — a browser ad blocker (uBlock Origin) is the only way to
kill those, and it covers pop-out windows too.
How do I move a tile?
Hover a tile and drag it by the grip in its top-right corner, or press V (or the
four-way arrow in the toolbar) to arrange, then hold anywhere on a tile and drag it. Drop it on
another tile to swap the two.
Why is everything muted?
Browsers block autoplay with sound, and four streams talking at once is chaos. Unmute the one you're
watching with the speaker button in its header. That only works on YouTube, Twitch, Kick, Rumble,
Vimeo and Dailymotion — on other sites use the mute control inside their own player.
How do I listen to just one game?
Hover a tile and press the headphones button. That tile becomes the audio source
and every other tile whose player accepts a mute setting is muted. The selected tile gets an
AUDIO chip so it is clear which one was chosen.
On sites the app cannot control, muting has to happen inside their own player — the toast says so
instead of pretending it worked.
Can I get captions?
On YouTube tiles the CC button in the tile controls turns YouTube's own captions
on or off — most live news and major sports streams ship them. Turn it on once and new YouTube tiles
start with captions already on. For Twitch and everything else, use the captions button inside that
player; the streamer has to provide them.
Sites that supply no captions at all can't be captioned from inside the page — a web page has no
access to another site's audio. Use what's built into your machine instead:
Chrome Live Caption (Settings → Accessibility → Live Caption) or macOS Live Captions
(System Settings → Accessibility → Live Captions). Both caption any audio playing in the browser,
iframe included, with nothing to set up here.
Why did a stream stop working after a while?
Live aggregators rotate domains and rate-limit, so a page can start answering 403 or
simply go blank. Reload the tile, or grab the site's current address from the Embeds panel.
Where are my boards saved?
In this browser's localStorage, per address. Same browser, same address — same boards.
A private window, a different port or a cleared cache starts empty. Nothing is uploaded.
Can I download it for my computer?
Yes. Use Download for computer on Home or in Plan, unzip the folder and
run the start script. It runs locally, keeps working offline, and there is no install
prompt or home-screen app.
Why are the YouTube controls missing?
YouTube tiles run in a clean mode: the site's own pause/fullscreen bar is
hidden and the frame ignores the pointer, so hovering never brings it back. Use
the tile's hover pill for mute, audio focus, captions, reload, focus and
fullscreen — or pop the tile out if you want YouTube's player.
Live streams don't need seeking; this is deliberate.
Can I go bigger than 9 tiles?
9 per board is the cap. Layouts are screen counts: picking 2-up shows the first two
tiles and hides the rest until you choose a larger layout; the Demo board fills itself
with live channels when you pick more screens. Make a second board with
Shift+N — tabs keep their own layout and links, so "NFL" and
"F1" never interfere.
Can I watch on two monitors?
Yes. Use More → Window wall (W) and drag the windows wherever you like; each one
keeps its own URL. Or pop out individual tiles and leave the board on the second screen.
Does this get around a login or paywall?
No. Tiles are just frames — if a site needs an account, you sign in with your own, and paid content
still needs the subscription. The app itself stores nothing anywhere.
Paid services — Hulu, Disney+, Netflix, Prime Video, Max, Fox, Peacock, Paramount+ and Apple TV —
use DRM and refuse to be framed. Paste one and it opens in its own window, where you sign in
normally; it cannot be tiled. YouTube videos and live channels embed; YouTube TV does not.
