A TV-Browser installation consists of the following files and directories:

| plugins/ | This directory contains the plugins. If you download plugins from the internet, move them into this folder. TV-Browser will automatically detect them. |

| tvdataservice/ | This directory contains the TV-DataServices. The default installation contains exactly one TV-DataService, called TvBrowserDataService, which loads the TV listings of TV-Browser. |
