FEATURE · MUSIC & VIDEO
Drop the needle. Name the track.
Paste a YouTube link on a board clue or a pub-quiz question and choose how it plays: audio only with the picture hidden, for guess-the-song, or as a clip everyone watches. The sound comes out of the TV.
How do music rounds work?
A music clue plays a YouTube clip through the TV with the video hidden, so the room hears the song but can't see the title. You choose where the clip starts and ends, so you can drop in at the chorus or stop before the giveaway line.
A video clue plays the clip on screen — the film scene, the goal, the advert — and the question asks about it.
CLIPS
Start at the chorus, stop before the title
Set a start and end time for each clip. On the night, press play from your phone and the TV plays exactly that slice, as many times as you want.
PICTURE ROUNDS
A picture round, the pub-quiz classic
In pub-quiz and quickfire questions you can add a picture by pasting its web address. It appears large on the TV: the flag, the logo, the celebrity as a baby.
Questions about music and video
Where does the sound come from?
From the TV. Tap the TV screen once at the start of the night to allow sound — browsers require that — and every clip after that plays through the television.
Can I upload my own music or pictures?
No. Clips come from YouTube links, and pictures from a web address you paste.
What if a video won't play?
Some YouTube videos can't be embedded on other sites. Check each clip in the editor before the party, and pick another upload of the same song if one refuses.
