FAQ

Which cinemas are available for TV-Browser?

Crasline currently offers the schedule from the "Bretwand" cinemas (Starnberg, Seefeld, Herrschin).

From now on all cinemas from "CineStar" in over 80 cities (~100 cinemas) are available. They also cover some small cinemas (ie Lichtspielhaus, Capitol,...). An overview of cities and cinemas is available at the CineStar Homepage.

Also available Cineworld cinema from Mainfrankenpark.

Also the "Hollywood Megaplex" cinemas from austria (2x Vienna, Linz, Innsbruck,...) are available

When is my cinema from my town available?

Perhaps soon, perhaps never.

The situation with the cinema-schedule is the same as with the TV-schedule: The data will be available, when there is someone providing them. But you can do it on your own!

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 error "No mirror found for group"

  • Check you internet connection?
  • Check your firewall?
  • Is the URL typed correctly?

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).
