TV-Browser

So, you belong to the minority of people who do not simply turn on their box and watch whatever there’s in it? Good. You choose the shows you want to watch carefully, share your opinion with others and have many channels to choose from, and it takes you hours to find the stuff. Here’s the solution: stop buying those TV magazines. The cost money, offer as search function your index finger only, and you will be reminded of a show only if you told your spouse what you want to see.

TV-Browser is an Electronic TV guide, a so called ‘electronic programme guide (EPG)’ which will list you your shows according to your wishes. There are some 500 TV stations and 80 radio channels to choose from, it offers remote control of your hard- and software, is extendable and customizable via plugins, skins, and icon sets.

You can search for your favourite programmes, set reminders, look for reruns, create filters, control external devices, print the programme, and tons of stuff more.

TV-Browser is not only absolutely free, no fee whatsoever, it also comes without any advertisement which is in itself a big advantage over any printed TV Magazine. To help you with any problems you might encounter you will find an online documentation, a wiki, and a support forum.

TV-Browser is a perfect example for the creativity and ingenuity of an Open Source community aiming at providing a service and software created by the community for the community in the highest professional manner, and resisting any commercialization at the same time.
