What if you want to change the screensavers on your SMART TV?

That is why this website is alive. Uscenes creates TV screensavers that we refer to as ambient scenes. These are real videos of aquariums, fireplaces, and scenery. You can use ours as examples of ones you can film on your phone.

Just add an MP4 video to a USB thumb drive and plug it into your TV. Then press play (and select repeat) and sit back to relax and enjoy soothing sounds. The idea is to disconnect and just glance at the screen occasionally. It is a subtle concept for setting pleasing vibes in your home.

We are near the holiday season. For businesses, try our Fireplace TV screensavers for those cold winter nights. Which come in our download bundle. Home users will probably enjoy our 4K Fireplace video this winter.
