Let’s dive into how you can craft your own TV in the blocky world of Minecraft.
Short Form Answer: You Can’t, But…
Interestingly, Minecraft doesn’t have a direct way to make an electronic TV because it’s based on blocks and natural elements. But, don’t lose hope! Players have come up with clever ways to create something that looks like a TV.
These imaginative solutions involve using blocks like black wool or obsidian for the screen and then framing it with other materials, like wood or stone, to mimic a TV stand or wall-mounted TV. Some players even use paintings or item frames to represent a screen, while others go further by creating Redstone contraptions that simulate a moving image.
