Using our Progressive Web App (PWA)


What is a Progressive Web App?

A Progressive Web App is an application built to run inside a web browser, which takes advantage of modern technology to allow you to have an app-like experience on a wide range of devices.

To keep TrilbyTV available to hardware which cannot run the TrilbyTV Player app, such as ChromeOS and a wide range of smart televisions, we have created a TrilbyTV Player PWA. This means there is nothing to install and update. It's updated every time it restarts.

NOTE

  • We suggest using a dedicated Player App where possible as this can allow additional options within the Player Settings.
  • As caching on a PWA is limited by the browser configuration and device we cannot confirm how much storage is available, which may affect playback if the device goes offline.
  • We cannot guarantee that our PWA will work on every device, especially older hardware, so be sure to test performance before a larger deployment.

How to create a PWA Player

  1. On your device, open a web browser and go to https://player.trilbytv.co.uk
  2. Click Start and make note of the 8-digit Player Code
  3. Open Players and click Add Player
  4. Enter the 8-digit Player code and give the Player a name
  5. Set the Default Playback as required, whether a Category, Playlist or Single Item
