FAQ

Which cinemas are available for TV-Browser?

  • Cineplex cinemas (Bad Kreuznach, Bruchsal, Elmshorn, Frankfurt (Main), Friedrichshafen, Goslar, Limburg, Lippstadt, Mannheim, Marburg, Münster (Westf), Naumburg (Saale), Paderborn, Singen, Suhl, Warburg (Westf))
  • Breitwand cinemas (Herrsching, Seefeld, Starnberg)
  • About 100 CineStar cinemas in over 80 cities, among them also many small cinemas - a list of all cinemas can be found at the "CineStar" web pages
  • Hollywood Megaplex cinemas in Austria (Innsbruck, Linz, St. Pölten, Wien (2))
  • Cineworld cinema (in the "Mainfrankenpark")
  • Schillerhof cinema in Jena (Thuringia)

When is my favourite cinema available?

Perhaps soon, perhaps never - it's the same as with the TV data: One (or several) cinema(s) will be available, when there is someone providing them. Also you can settle that - try it!

How can I provide a cinema-guide?

It is the same procedure as if you offer the TV-schedule.

  • Ask your cinema if you are allowed to use and provide the data.

For any problems please use our Forum we will help you!

How can I add the cinema-guide?

If you are using TV-Browser 2.1 or higher, you can use the channel/channel groups refresh buttons within the settings. For older versions please follow this instructions:

  • Click "Settings" -> "TvDataServices" -> "TV-Browser"
  • Open "Channel groups"
  • Click "Add"
  • Now you can type in the URL to the cinema guides
    • Breitwand: http://kinotvbrowser.tagus.de/breitwand
    • CineStar: http://kinotvbrowser.tagus.de/cinestar
    • Cineworld: http://kinotvbrowser.tagus.de/cineworld
    • Hollywood Megaplex: http://tv.hermann.czedik.net/megaplex
    • Jena Schillerhof: http://tvradio.tv.funpic.de/data/JENA
    • Wiesbaden Caligari: http://www.xata.de/tvbrowser/cinevents
  • Activate the channel group
  • Click the "Refresh" button near the channellist - the new cinemas will appear in the left column soon
  • Move the desired cinemas to the right column (list of active channels)
  • At last, click the "Refresh" button in the main menu

I receive the 'No mirror found for group' message

  • Check your web connection
  • Check your firewall
  • Check the channel group's URL

Are there some other hints for me?

Sure! To seperate the TV-Channels from cinemas you can setup a filterrule. So it is quite easy to switch between TV and cinema schedules. For more information have a look at Fitlerrules or Filterrules - Example: Subtitle (to be translated).
