Saba is a Raycast extension that transforms your spotlight search into a virtual TV remote. It lets you browse hundreds of live TV channels and play them in your preferred video player.
Hello! I recently built this Raycast extension that lets me browse and stream live TV in 720p@60fps or 1080p@30fps in VLC or IINA.
It includes over 150 channels, a TV Guide, a movie/tv-show schedule, and a sports guide.
Also included are 24/7 re-runs of popular shows. I mean, guys, I can literally pull up 'the office' in one key press from anywhere on my Mac, and it starts playing instantly in IINA player. The same goes for any sports game! I find myself using this extension more than any streaming service I pay for. Wanna look at the news real quick in the morning or right before a meeting? One key press and bam! I’m watching CNN or BBC. It’s great!
This is obviously a biased review since I’m the developer, but I initially made this tool for myself. A couple of people looked over my shoulder and asked if they could use it too. So, I started to clean it up, got more computing resources behind it, and then I started to walk through my design decisions up to that point. After a few months of building while people used it and v.1.0 is finally live 🎉
This tool brings me so much joy that I thought I’d share it with a few more people. Check out the website to learn more: https://saba.mintlify.app/
EDIT: Limited availability (Only 100 spots open). I don't plan on making this a business, just sharing a handy tool that I built to solve a personal problem. I think I can provide reasonable customer support for about 100 people :)
