Programming of TV, replicatable in Drupal / Javascript?

Question

I was watching TV and wondering what programming languages get the continuous digital video to the TV. I am assuming it is on the receiver.

But the major question is that could this be reproducible using JavaScript (JQuery) or Drupal? And to be clear, the end result would be a site that simply displays continuous video in full screen to the browser. URL ?= will be used to determine channel.

Answer 1

If you have a TV that can surf the web. You can use jQuery/Drupal on it.

If not, you can't.

Yay!
