# Control a TV with Meta Muse: digital signage from Meta's AI agent > Canonical HTML: https://screenrig.ai/guides/control-tv-with-muse Yes, Meta Muse can control a TV. Add screenRIG from Muse's connectors directory, send one message, and Muse pairs the screen, puts content on it and checks a screenshot. You need the Muse app, a screen running the screenRIG Player and one sentence saying what to show. Updated November 11, 2026. ## Live card previews - [Announcement](https://screenrig.ai/docs/cards/announcement.md): Rotating messages with an icon, a headline and a line or two of body text, in sync on every screen. ## What is Meta Muse, and where do I get it? Muse is Meta's personal AI agent. Everything here happens in your conversation with it, on your phone, with no terminal. | What you need | Where it comes from | | --- | --- | | The Muse app | The [App Store for iOS](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/muse-from-meta/id6760173601) or [Google Play for Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.facebook.aura). [Meta's download page](https://ai.meta.com/muse/download/) lists current availability | | The screenRIG connector | Muse's connectors directory | | The Player | The [Downloads page](https://screenrig.ai/downloads.md), or the web Player in any modern browser | Your Muse login is separate from your screenRIG account, and Muse never needs your screenRIG password. ## How do I connect Meta Muse to a TV? 1. **Add screenRIG from Muse's connectors directory.** 2. **Send Muse this message:** ```text Set up screenRIG using its official Muse connector. Install the official screenRIG plugin it provides, verify the bundled CLI, and help me set up my first screen. ``` 3. **Review what Muse asks for.** It asks for account, installation and tool-access approvals in the conversation. The connector gives Muse the plugin, so you paste no address. Muse confirms the plugin works before it goes on. 4. **Give it your email.** Muse creates your screenRIG project and emails you an invitation to the dashboard. Nothing waits on that email, so Muse goes straight on to pairing. 5. **Open the Player on the TV and send Muse the code.** Keep the web Player in the foreground while you try it. 6. **Say what to show.** Muse publishes, asks the screen for a screenshot and tells you what it saw. Check the glass yourself too. Already have the code? Say it all at once: "Use screenrig.ai for my lobby screen. My pairing code is [code]. Create a welcome board using my events calendar. Ask me for anything else you need." [Set up screenRIG in Meta Muse](https://screenrig.ai/docs/start/muse.md) has every step. ## What can I ask Muse? This is a first run from a recorded session on a test screen. The venue is made up. > **You:** Use screenrig.ai to pair this screen. The code is ABC 234. Call it Devices TV. > > **Agent:** Paired. Devices TV shows PAIRING COMPLETED and is online. > > **You:** Put up a board with two messages. Tonight: open house at 5 pm, doors open at five, coffee and tours start at the front desk. This week: free Wi-Fi in the lounge, ask at the front desk for the network name. > > **Agent:** Done. Devices TV is showing the board, the open house first and the Wi-Fi message after it. It was on the screen about two seconds after I published it, and I checked a screenshot. ![The first board on the screen: an amber door icon and the word TONIGHT above the headline Open house at 5 pm, with a line of body text and a 1 of 2 page counter](https://screenrig.ai/static-resources/images/screenshots/landing/devices-hub-first-board-d0cffb7a.webp) *The board from that conversation, on a test screen (the Player running in a browser). The Wi-Fi message follows it. A TV, stick or Pi draws the same board.* The same conversation keeps going. Ask Muse to change a line, add a closing notice or put the board on a second TV, and it does it in the same project. ## What can Muse do with my screens? - **Publish.** Posters, menus, photos, video, web pages, live streams and the 200+ ready-made [apps](https://screenrig.ai/apps.md), on one screen or many. - **Schedule.** Breakfast, lunch and dinner menus, or a closing notice, each in the screen's own time. - **Take over.** One request puts a notice on every screen with a tag, for a set time up to 7 days or until it is cleared. - **Check.** A screenshot of one screen or of every tagged screen, and the Player's own report that it is playing. - **Wait for you.** With Require review for agent changes, or Propose access, each change waits for your approval in the dashboard. Every agent has its own record in the dashboard. ![The dashboard Agents view: three connected agents, one selected with its capabilities and an activity log whose newest row is Pickup specials published.](https://screenrig.ai/static-resources/images/screenshots/dashboard/screenrig-dashboard-agents-1200-547c3950.webp) *The Agents page of a demo project: Muse Agent, Claude Code and Grok Bot, each with its own capabilities and its own log. Reads are not recorded, and the log lasts as long as the project's event history.* ## What limits should I know about? - **The Player must be open on the device that drives the screen.** Muse publishes whenever you ask, and the screen plays it only while the Player runs. - **A chat reply alone does not install the plugin.** If Muse cannot install or run it, ask what access or capability is missing, or use [Claude Code](https://screenrig.ai/guides/digital-signage-with-claude-code.md) or [ChatGPT Codex](https://screenrig.ai/guides/control-tv-with-chatgpt.md). - **Availability is Meta's.** Meta's download page lists where Muse is offered. - **Share only what the screen needs.** When Muse reads a sheet or a calendar, identify the source and approve only the access you want it to have. ## Meta Muse questions ### Can Meta Muse control a TV? Yes. Muse runs the official screenRIG plugin, which pairs the screen, publishes content and checks a screenshot of the screen. ### Do I need a computer for Meta Muse? No. You set it up and run it from the Muse app on your phone. The TV or stick needs the Player installed, or any screen can open the web Player in a browser. ### Can Muse see what is on the TV? It can ask the screen for a screenshot and look at it. Publishing also waits for the Player to report the new playlist, up to two minutes, and says whether it is playing. ### Can Muse run several screens? Yes. Tag the screens, and one request changes, schedules or takes over every screen with the tag. The answer reports each screen's own result. ### Does Muse need my screenRIG password? No. Muse signs in with its own credentials. Never paste passwords, invitation links or tokens into the conversation. ## Related - [Meta Muse Digital Signage Setup](https://screenrig.ai/docs/start/muse.md): Install the official screenRIG plugin in Meta Muse, connect your screenRIG account, pair a Player, and let Muse publish your first screen. - [How Can My AI Agent Put Content on a TV?](https://screenrig.ai/guides/ai-agent-on-tv.md): Your AI agent puts content on a TV with the official screenRIG plugin: it pairs the screen, publishes and checks it.
