Vibe TV Setup on Mac

Set up your Vibe TV over WiFi. USB-C is only used for power.

What you need

  • Your Vibe TV
  • A USB-C power cable or power adapter
  • A Mac with internet access
  • Your home WiFi password

Setup

  1. Plug in your Vibe TV.
    Connect it to power. You do not need to connect it to your Mac.
  2. Connect to the setup WiFi.
    Open WiFi settings on your Mac or iPhone and connect to VibeTV-Setup.
  3. Open the setup page.
    The setup page should open automatically. If it does not, open http://vibetv.local. If that does not work, use the fallback IP shown on the Vibe TV screen.
  4. Connect Vibe TV to your home WiFi.
    Select your home WiFi, enter the password, and save. Vibe TV restarts and joins your WiFi.
  5. Install the Mac app.
    After Vibe TV is connected to your WiFi, open http://vibetv.local. Click the copy button for the Mac setup command, paste it into Terminal, and press Enter.
  6. Done.
    Vibe TV should show the Mini theme automatically once the Mac app is running.

What success looks like

  • Vibe TV shows the Mini theme.
  • Your usage numbers update automatically.
  • You do not need USB after setup.

If something does not work

  • If vibetv.local does not open, use the fallback IP shown on the Vibe TV screen.
  • If Vibe TV says it is waiting for the Mac app, open http://vibetv.local and run the Mac setup command again.
  • If the setup WiFi does not appear, unplug Vibe TV, plug it back in, and wait for the setup screen.
  • This setup flow is currently for macOS only.

Important: Do not flash firmware manually during normal customer setup. Your Vibe TV is already prepared before shipping.
