There is a chapter about it in the manual. In short, TV defines new 
registers while parsing TS inside DS. So you can access properties of 
record from pages or tt_content table.

Example from the manual:

<TypoScript>
10 = TEXT
10.data = register:tx_templavoila_pi1.parentRec.uid
10.wrap = “uid” field of parent record is |
</TypoScript>

Btw, there is also dedicated templavoila mailing list.
