the player.
The TV app uses the same design as Pegasus on the desktop. The player shows the record half out of its sleeve, on a moving background in the colours of the cover that reacts to the audio. A key on the remote shows the lyrics next to the record, in time with the song.
browsing with the remote.
Home
A banner of albums, your quick selection, the playlists made for you and rows of albums, as on your computer.
Album wall
Your cloud library as covers, with a search field.
Album pages
Play or shuffle, the tracklist, the start of the Wikipedia article and the genres.

Your own playlists and the playlists rpm makes. New playlists are named with the TV's on-screen keyboard.

Hold OK on a track to add it to your favourites or to a playlist.
Up next
The queue opens next to the player, where you can change what plays next.
At home
computers in your home.
The TV finds computers on your network that run rpm with sharing on. After pairing with a code, the computer's music is added to the library on the TV. Each track plays from the computer when it is reachable, and from the cloud when it is not.
Collections that other accounts share with yours are listed in the collections panel.
radio.
Internet radio with a wheel and a tuner for the remote. It shows the song on air, keeps favourite stations, and reconnects a station that drops. The stations you listen to most are shown first, and your radio listening syncs with the iPhone and your computers.
