Template:MenuBar The setup assistant is started when you first start TV-Browser. It guides you through the most important settings like internet connection and channels.

You can start this assistant at any time using the menu Help -> Setup assistant....

The process

Stage 1
Stage 2
This is the first screen you will see after starting TV-Browser for the first time. The second screen is the network settings screen. It allows you to configure proxy servers and tests your internet connection. If you need to supply proxy settings, do so and click next. Otherwise, simply click next to continue.
Stage 3a
Stage 3b
If step 2 worked correctly this is the screen you will see. Click next to continue the process. If step 2 didn't work correctly, you will see this error message. The most likely reason for this is is a problem with your firewall. Possible solutions to firewall problems are given here

Stage 5
A number of status messages such as the one shown above will be displayed next. Next you will see this screen. This stage is described on the channels settings page.
Stage 6
Stage 7
In the next stage, you select if you want pictures of programs to be downloaded and displayed or not. This process is explained on the picture settings page. This is the final screen you will see as the setup assistant confirms that all your settings have been accepted.

After the process finishes
