AnalogTV for TV

Your living-room screen, reborn as a glowing CRT with colour bars, teletext pages, snow and vintage looks, all rendered from a real analog broadcast signal.

Turn your Apple TV into a glowing analog television.

AnalogTV is a real-time analog broadcast simulator: every picture is built from an actual composite video signal encoded, sent down a simulated RF path, and drawn onto a virtual CRT with scanlines, phosphor glow, bloom and tube geometry. Nothing is faked with filters.

• TEST CARDS: the classics, faithfully reproduced: SMPTE & EBU colour bars, the Philips PM5544, BBC Test Card F, RCA Indian Head, USAF-1951 and more. • TELETEXT: a genuine SAA5050 teletext interface, the same character generator used by Ceefax and ORACLE. Browse the whole app as nested teletext pages, or leave a ticking teletext clock on the wall. • VINTAGE LOOKS: nine curated era "rooms", from a 1950s Rediffusion set to 1990s Hi-Vision, each with its own noise, colour, bloom and scanline character. • STREAMS & LIVE VIDEO: pipe FTP, HLS or RTSP streams through the analog pipeline, or receive NDI sources from your network. • PLAY: a rack of built-in arcade games rendered through the same authentic signal path. • AMBIENT MODE: a screen saver that leaves a teletext clock, snow, or colour bars glowing on your TV. • SEND TO APPLE TV: push a saved look straight from the iPhone or Mac app over the local network, and sync your look library across devices with iCloud.

Designed for the 10-foot experience: the whole thing is a set of nested teletext pages you drive with the Siri Remote, with on-screen settings for overscan, picture fit, sound and the screen saver.
