  2. Rez the TVStand, Feet or Wall: pick the one for your room.
  3. Touch the TVYour remote link comes in local chat. Or wear the Remote HUD: it finds your nearest TV by itself.

There are no pop-up menus: every setting is on the remote.
THE REMOTE

One remote for everything

Wear the Remote HUD, or open your remote link on your phone or in a browser. The same remote, the same buttons. The HUD finds your nearest TV; the TV name at the top switches between your TVs.

The remote's Playing tab
The Sync TV picks on the Lists tab

Playing

  • Search YouTube, paste a video or photo link, or import a whole playlist. Live streams play too.
  • Paste with Ctrl+V (Mac: Cmd+V) after you click the search box. In Second Life, right-click does not paste: it opens the viewer's menu.
  • After pasting a video or photo link, choose Play now to show it immediately and keep the existing queue, or Queue it to add it without interrupting the current item. Pasting alone starts nothing. A playlist link has its own Add the playlist and Replace the queue buttons.
  • Local chat: near your TV, the owner can type /7 and a link (Ctrl+V works there too). A playlist or a YouTube mix plays whole; /7 q and a link adds it to the queue.
  • The main row is From the start, 10 seconds back, Play/Pause in the centre, 10 seconds forward, and Next. Below are Shuffle, Stop and Repeat (the whole queue, one item, or off). Photos have no pause or timeline; restart is also disabled for live streams.
  • The heart keeps a video in your Favourites. The clock at the top shows every video played on this TV.
  • The cast icon All my TVs at the top right of the picture shares this channel with all your other TVs. Tap it again to restore their own channels. It appears for owners with multiple TVs, not guests or a TV already following another. To control a different TV instead, use the TV name at the top.

Video and photo links

Paste a public Gyazo photo/video link, a direct HTTPS JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF or AVIF link, or a supported video-file link. Choose Play now or Queue it. There are no file uploads: pictures load from their original host, so keep links public and available.

YouTubeGyazoDropbox.mp4.webm.jpg / .png
Your own video: put it in Dropbox, copy the link of the file and paste it in the remote. A phone video in HEVC (H.265) does not play in Second Life: save it as H.264 (iPhone: Settings > Camera > Formats > Most Compatible).

Queue and lists

  • Queue: up to 500 items, including photos and videos. Move one to the top, remove one, or clear all. Search the queue finds items by words in their titles.
  • Sync TV picks: ready lists for every Sync TV: Neon Nights, Chill, Party, Cosy, Nature, Sunset House, Jazz Lounge, Space Journey, and World and US Top 100 lists, new every day. The card starts closed; tap its title to open it.
  • Your lists: Save the queue keeps the current item and everything after it. Open a saved list to add video or photo links directly. Photo-only and mixed lists work; a cover beside the name helps you recognise each list. In Favourites, Play all plays items in sequence.
HOME

Free TV, games and radio

Home turns your Sync TV into a home screen, like a smart TV's. Watch free TV and live channels, listen to the radio, play games together or open a website. Everyone near the TV sees it.

The TV's home screen: rows of tiles with the logos of free TV, live channels, radio, games and websites

The home screen on the TV. A tile with an arrow in its corner opens the site on the whole screen.

  1. Tap Home on the remoteThe house button at the top. Or click the TV's screen: Home is in the bar at its top.
  2. Pick on the TV's screenClick a tile on the TV itself. The people who may change the TV can pick (Settings > Access). Everyone else watches.
  3. Come backTap Sync TV on the TV, or the lit Home button on the remote: from a game or a site to the home screen, from the home screen to Sync TV. The video waits, paused, and goes on from the same moment. Playing a video also brings the TV back.

On the home screen

  • Watch: YouTube (back to the player, with the TV's search open), Lofi Girl (live, in sync for everyone), and free TV on Plex, Stirr and Pluto TV.
  • Live and music: Twitch, Kick, Radio (pick a kind of music or search a station), Radio Paradise and Lofi Cafe.
  • Play together: Poki, CrazyGames, Kosmi, skribbl.io, BombParty, Codenames and Colonist.
  • Web: type an address or words to search, or open Google, Wikipedia, Reddit, Pinterest or the Second Life Marketplace.

Good to know

  • Tiles without an arrow open on the home screen, under a bar with Home and Sync TV. Pluto TV is not in every country.
  • A tile with an arrow fills the whole TV with its site, without buttons of ours: come back with the lit Home button on the remote. These sites need the latest TV script (v0.5.9 or newer).
  • While the TV goes to a site or comes back, the remote shows a blurred "please wait" screen for a few seconds.
  • While the TV is on Home, the lights show their Home light.
Each person sees their own copy of a page. Second Life shares only the address of the page: scrolling, typing and the game stay on each person's screen. To play together, everyone joins the same room in the game. Netflix and other copy-protected sites do not play.
AMBILIGHT

The wall follows the picture

A Sync TV on the wall: the colours of the sunset on the screen glow on the wall around it
  • Glow behind the TV (Room tab): on Video, 8 zones of the wall take the colours of the picture, live. Or pick one colour: White, Warm, Rose, Violet, Ice, Mint or Amber. Off turns it off.
  • Strength sets how strong the glow is.
  • The TV's room light adds Second Life's own light in the same colours. It shows best on a light wall.
THE LIGHT FAMILY

The whole room plays along

Every light follows the video while it plays, and shows a home light when nothing is on. They link to your nearest Sync TV by themselves, also when you put them out before the TV.

Three Sync Neon floor lamps: Noir, White and Aluminium

Sync Neon - Floor Lamp

The colours of its side of the picture run down the lamp, top to bottom. Noir, White or Aluminium.

On the remote

  • What they show: The video, Home light or Off - one switch for every device at once.
  • Your room shows every device by its side of the TV. Tap one to set it on its own.
  • Follows: Auto takes the side of the picture where the light stands, seen from the TV. Move the light and it follows. Or pick a side yourself.
  • Brightness is the light itself; Light on the room is Second Life's light on the walls and the floor (with Reach and Softness).
  • Home light for when nothing plays: Warm white, Cool white, any colour, Aurora, or Off.
  • Look: Colour gradient and the Finish (Noir, White, Aluminium) on a neon lamp; Wall glow on a Wall Bar.
  • The pencil next to its name renames it. Find them shows every device with its name; Find it shows one. Same as all gives a device the settings of all devices again.

Where to put them

  • Floor lamps: one on each side of the TV, close to the wall.
  • Wall Bar: above the TV (the top edge) or below it (the bottom edge). Let its wall plates touch the wall.
  • Orbs: at TV height, 0.5 to 1 m from a wall. Light walls show the colours best.

Track BPM and adding from Queue

Owner: open a saved list and tap BPM beside a video, or use the BPM button on the playing track or a queued video. Enter 60–200 BPM (one decimal allowed) and Save. This tempo is remembered for that track across your TVs and lists, and used automatically when it plays. Use room tempo removes it. Tracks without a saved BPM keep each room’s manual tempo. Enable Pulse in Room separately; BPM controls tempo, not audio analysis or automatic beat detection. Tap the beat and +/- update the remembered value when that track has one. Photos have no BPM. Refresh the remote; no script replacement is needed.

Queue now has Filter queue and Add items. Filter still searches the existing queue. Add items offers the same YouTube search, video/photo links, Play now, Queue it and playlist actions as Playing. Switching modes keeps your text; adding does not leave an old filter hiding new items.

A Sync TV on its stand with the Sync Soundbar, a Sync Subwoofer and a Sync Speaker on each side
The sound plays from your Sync TV. The speakers do not play or hear the music: they show it in light and motion. Second Life can not split a video's sound into speakers, and a speaker that played the video itself would echo with the TV.

SYNC BOX

A box for the console

A set-top style box with the SYNC mark, and its aluminium remote. It plays nothing itself: the light strip round its base and the small light on its front take the colours of the picture, and a touch gives you your remote's link. An add-on for Sync TV, sold separately: get it on the Marketplace.

An architect LED lamp: two arms on platinum joints, two coil springs and a slim head. It gives Second Life's own light - on your desk, your keyboard and you - and its thin light lines take the colours of your Sync TV. Black and Pink are both in the box.

A real light

The light comes from the head, with a soft pool on the desk under it. Turn the lamp any way: the head still lights the desk.

The light lines

A light pipe under the base, a ring round the button and a line round the head: SYNC, Match or Off.

The pink desk lamp

Black or Pink

The owner picks Colour in the menu. Each colour has its own texture.

The same lamp four times: warm, neutral, cool and violet light

The menu

  • Light: Warm, Neutral, Cool or SYNC (the colours of your Sync TV's video).
  • Bright: Low, Medium or High - its light reaches 3, 4.5 or 6 m.
  • The owner also has Power, Lines, Spot (the pool on the desk), Colour and Access (Only me, Group or Everyone).
The pool on the desk needs Advanced Lighting (always on in today's viewers) and shows best in a dark room.
SYNC RING LIGHT

An 18-inch ring light that lights your face

A ring light on a 175 cm tripod, with a phone holder in the middle. Its light is Second Life's own light from the ring's centre: it lights what is in front of it. Its thin light lines take the colours of your Sync TV. Black and Pink are both in the box.

It is a Second Life point light: it shows best in a dark room or at night.
SYNC AROMA DIFFUSER

Mist and light for a calm corner

A ribbed ceramic drop on a lacquer base. A soft mist rises from it and fades away, and its light takes the colours of your Sync TV. It is decor: the mist is Second Life particles, and there is no scent. Black and Pink are both in the box.

The mist

Soft puffs rise just over the outlet, widen and fade away. They take a touch of the light's colour.

The base with its lit band

The light

The diffuser three times: no mist, a soft mist and a strong mist

The menu

  • Mist: Off, Soft (a thin, slow wisp) or Strong (a tall, dense cloud).
  • Light: SYNC follows your Sync TV's video. With no TV: a slow violet, pink and cyan drift.
  • The owner also has Power, Colour and Access (Only me, Group or Everyone).
Rez it upright: the mist rises along the diffuser's own up direction.
MORE

Every room, every guest

Two rooms, two Sync TVs showing the same picture

All your TVs

Settings > TV > Channel: "Show this on all my TVs". Your other TVs play the same video at the same moment. "Sound only on this TV" stops an echo between rooms.

Watch here, or on your phone

"Watch here" moves the video onto your Remote HUD. "Watch on your phone" gives a link and a QR code: friends watch along in their browser.

The Access settings on the remote

Access and guests

Everyone can always watch. Who can change it: Everyone, With the PIN, Group, or Only me. VIPs control it in every mode. Guests who may change it touch the TV for their own remote link.

The Look settings on the remote

Look and size

10 finishes, sizes from 55 to 200 inch, and what the screen shows when nothing is on: a clock, Aurora, stars, waves, black or your own picture.

HELP

Tips and fixes

The TV

Nothing on the screen?

Turn on media (Set up, step 1) and click the screen once: "Tap to join". The owner can also use Settings > TV > Reload the screen.

Cannot paste a link?

Click the search box, then press Ctrl+V (Mac: Cmd+V). Right-click opens the viewer's menu, not Paste. Or, near your TV, type /7 and the link in local chat.

One video does not play?

Its owner keeps it off other sites. The TV goes on to the next video by itself.

A video link does not play?

The remote says why. Use the link of the file itself, not of a web page or a folder. Gyazo photos can also be shown. HEVC phone videos do not play: save them as H.264.

No sound?

Check the remote's volume and your viewer's media volume. On a channel, "Sound only on this TV" keeps your other TVs quiet (Settings > TV > Channel). On Watch here the sound starts off the first time: tap the speaker button.

Lost the remote link?

Touch the TV: a new link comes in local chat. A link that says it is not valid any more: touch the TV for a new one.

Someone else controls my TV?

Settings > Access > Only me (or With the PIN), and set a new PIN: it closes the old guest screens.

A guest cannot change the TV?

With the PIN: they click the screen and type the PIN. Group: they wear your group tag and touch the TV's frame, not the screen; no PIN. VIPs always can.

The screen says only the owner can change it?

The screen shows a 4-digit code and your Remote HUD asks "A screen asks for your controls". Tap Allow if the code is the same, and that screen is yours. In Second Life every screen is its own browser: it can not know you by itself.

The size does not change?

Second Life limits the size of a linked object. Pick a smaller size.

The Sync TV picks are gone?

In Lists, tap the Sync TV picks title to expand the card. If the card itself is missing, turn it on in Settings > TV > Sync TV picks.

Lights and speakers

A light or speaker does not link?

It must be in the same region as the TV and have the same owner. Rez it again, or tap "Count again" on the Room tab.

A light stays on when the others change?

It was touched on its own. Pick "What they show" again, or touch it.

The rings stay one colour?

Turn on Colour gradient in the speaker's Look box, and check that a video plays.

No sound from the speakers?

That is how they work: the sound plays from your Sync TV, and the speakers show it in light and motion.

No kick on the beat?

Room tab > Music pulse must be Tap the beat, Picture energy or Both. Tap the beat again when the song changes.

Lights seem late on long videos?

The colours come from YouTube's preview frames: about every second on short videos, every 2 to 10 seconds on long ones. Video links: every 0.5 to 2 seconds.

The lights and the glow stopped?

The video and the sound play, but the lights do not follow the remote or the picture any more, and Reload the screen does nothing. The TV lost its line to our server: this happened to some TVs when we moved our servers on 17 October 2026. Take the TV into your inventory and rez it again, or Edit it and use Build > Scripts > Reset Scripts (it keeps its place). Your PIN, queue, lists and settings stay.

An Orb Light's dome is invisible?

"Hide the dome" is on (Room tab, tap the orb). Turn it off.

The Sync Box gives no link?

The TV must be out and running in the same region. Touch the TV itself: its link comes the same way.

Cinema

The screen does not roll down?

Room tab, tap the projector: check Auto in the Screen box, or tap Down.

No beam from the projector?

The beam shows only while the screen is down and a video plays. Check Beam in the projector's Look box, and that the projector is on.

The projector links to the wrong TV?

Room tab, tap the projector: Linked TV, pick the right one.

Party lights

No spot where the beam lands?

The spot shows on walls and floors near the beam, best on light surfaces in a dark room.

Clicks on the TV do nothing while the laser is on?

Its lit beams cross the screen. Change its Aim, or move the laser so its beams do not cross the picture.

Mirror Ball

No dots on the walls?

Your viewer needs Advanced Lighting (on in today's viewers), and Light dots must be on in the ball's Look box. Raise Dots for brighter dots.

The ball keeps speeding up and slowing down?

Scene cut drop is on: it spins fast at every cut in the video. Turn it off on the ball's panel.

Cafe and Clock

A guest's touch does nothing?

Access is Only me. The owner opens the settings on the screen and picks Group or Everyone.

The light does not take the TV's colours?

Glow must be Sync, and the Sync TV must be in the same region, with the same owner, and playing. Nothing playing: a soft violet.

The Clock shows the wrong time?

In the settings on the screen: Time zone (SLT, or your UTC) and 24 or 12 hours.

My photos do not show on the Clock?

They must be textures in the clock's own Content tab, and their names must not start with hub_.

Sync Club

A club part did not get to its place?

It reached the region's edge or a parcel it may not enter. Move the Builder box, then Pack and Build again.

Can I use less LI?

After Build, delete any part you do not need, like the shade sails, the palms or the lounge. Keep the stage: its LED wall holds the club's brain and the DJ panel.

The club is up in the sky: what about the outside steps?

Edit the arch, tick Edit linked, select the steps and delete them.

Sync Gaming Set

A piece of the set follows another TV?

Each piece stays with the TV it linked to. Take it and rez it again next to the right TV: it links to the nearest one.

The set's lights show one colour, not the video?

On the Sync TV's remote, the lights must show The video, and the piece's own Light must be SYNC.

I cannot type in the monitor's browser?

Another media HUD may take your typing: take it off. A yellow outline after a click is your viewer's selection: press Esc.

Sync Turntable

Does the turntable play music?

No. It is decor: the arm and the platter move like a real one. Its only sound is a soft vinyl crackle (menu: Sound).

I hear no crackle?

Pick Sound > On in its menu. It sounds only while the needle is on the record, and quietly.

A guest's touch does nothing?

Access is Only me. The owner touches the turntable and picks Access: Group or Everyone.

Sync Desk Lamp and Sync Ring Light

I see no pool of light on the desk?

The lamp's menu: Spot must be on. The pool needs Advanced Lighting and shows best in a dark room.

The ring light does not light my face?

Turn the ring to face you and pick a higher Bright. It lights what is in front of the ring.

Sync Aroma Diffuser

Does the diffuser have a scent?

No. It is decor: the mist is Second Life particles, and Second Life has no scent.

The mist goes sideways?

Rez the diffuser upright. The mist rises along its own up direction.

Home

How do I play a game on the TV?

Tap Home on the remote, then click a game in the Play together row on the TV's screen. Everyone who plays joins the same room in the game: share its room link or code in chat.

My friend sees another page?

Second Life shares only the address. Each person scrolls, types and plays on their own screen. Live channels and the radio are the same for everyone.

The TV stays on a website?

A website fills the whole TV, so it has no buttons of ours. Tap the lit Home button on the remote of that TV (the TV name at the top switches TVs), or play a video.

A site with an arrow does not open?

The TV says the site opens after the TV update: that TV needs TV script v0.5.9 or newer. LECASTLE's assistant sends the update (the new TV and HUD) to everyone who bought it. The games inside the TV, the radio and the player work on every TV.

Clicks on the screen do nothing?

Something in front of the screen catches the clicks, like another object or an old projector beam. Move it away from the screen.

Netflix does not play?

Netflix and other copy-protected sites do not play in Second Life's media.

A guest cannot open Home?

Only the people who may change the TV can use Home. The owner sets who in Settings > Access: Everyone, With the PIN, Group or Only me.

Updates are free: new features come to your remote by themselves. Still stuck? IM LECASTLE Assistant (lecastlemodel Resident).
