About TV-Browser
TV-Browser ...
- ...is an Electronic Program Guide (also known as an EPG). That means, it downloads the latest, up-to-date information about television programs from the internet and displays the information in a clear, understandable way - similar to the way that a standard paper TV Guide works. Your internet connection is only in use while downloading information about new programs.
- ...downloads information for more than 140 different broadcasters and this number is not limited. You can even supply data for other channels not currently offered by TV-Browser which other usres can then share.
- ... is totally free. It costs nothing to download the program or the information about TV programs. TV-Browser is not made for financial gain - we just enjoy working on this project in our freetime. TV-Browser also contains no banner advertising or hidden software. We are really not trying to make any money out of this!
- ... is Open Source software. If you're not convinced that TV-Browser contains no hidden software such as spyware, backdoors or viruses - download the sourcecode and see for yourself!
- ... is platform independant - it runs on any system for which there is a Java-Runtime environment. This is the case for most modern desktop systems whether Windows, Linux, MacOS or many other systems. All you need is the latest Java runtime environment.
- ... is fully configurable. There are skins and icons that allow you to change the appearance of TV-Browser to suit your desktop. As well as this, you can add extra functionality to TV-Browser in the form of downloadable plugins a detailled list of which can be found [1].
