Title bar: the data source, the bouquet, the page number (
Page: 1/4) and the number of channels (Services). While data is loading it says Loading...; if nothing is available for the page, No event data available. -
Day selector (top right): the chosen day, as
< Wednesday, 21. Oct 2026 >. - Prime-time row: one cell per column.
- Programme lists: one list per column, five rows tall.
- Colour buttons: More ..., 20:15, 22:00, Now, plus Menu and Info at the bottom.
The channels of your bouquet are laid out six per page, in bouquet order. LEFT and RIGHT move between columns; at the edge they turn the page and wrap around at the end. CHANNEL+ and CHANNEL- turn a whole page. The bouquet is the one set in Settings. Only channels that the plugin has an entry for, and that the chosen data source can deliver, are shown (see Channels).
At the top of each column:
| Part | Content |
|---|---|
| Picon | The channel's logo (Enigma2's standard picons) |
| Picture | A picture of the programme that runs at 20:15 on the chosen day |
| Channel name | In yellow |
| Time and title | Start time and title of the 20:15 programme |
It always shows the 20:15 programme (the one starting closest to that time), not the one you are looking at in the list. Changing the day changes it. The picture appears a moment after the page, once it has been downloaded.
Each column shows five programmes: the one before, the selected one, and three following (for the first programme of the day, the selected one is in the top row, followed by four). Each cell shows
| Part | Content |
|---|---|
| Start time | HH:MM |
| NEU | A badge under the time for a new episode (TV Spielfilm only) |
| Title | The programme title, wrapped |
| Grey line | The episode title / subtitle |
| Grey line | The production year (TV Spielfilm: country and year) |
The highlighted cell is the selected programme of the active column.
The columns are aligned on time. When you press DOWN or UP in the active column, the selected programme changes, and every other column scrolls to the programme that is running at the time of that one. So you read the evening across all channels.
The three colour buttons jump all columns to a time on the chosen day:
| Button | Jumps to |
|---|---|
| Green | 20:15 |
| Yellow | 22:00 |
| Blue | The current time of day (Now) |
On first opening, the columns are at 20:15.
NEXT and PREVIOUS change the day. The range is yesterday up to 14 days ahead, 16 days in all. Going past either end wraps around. After a change the columns are reloaded for the new day; data for days you have not looked at is fetched as needed.
When you open a page or a day for the first time, the programmes of its six channels are downloaded. The columns fill as the data arrives; the title bar says Loading.... With TV Spielfilm, programme details (picture, NEU badge) are fetched in the background for the programmes on screen, so the badges and the prime-time pictures appear a moment later.
Press 0 to reload the view.
- OK or INFO on a programme opens the event details.
- RED (More ...) opens a menu to zap, add a timer or search.
- MENU opens the settings.
- EXIT closes the plugin.
