Read the Programme Guide
OpenStream TV shows programme information for a channel when the active provider returns a schedule. You can check what is on now and what comes next without leaving the live player.
- Open Channels and select an available channel.
- Find the Program guide section beside or below the player, depending on your screen size.
- Look for the current programme marked as playing now. Future programmes appear in order, with a scheduled start time.
- Move your pointer over the video or tap the player to show its controls and current programme details. The overlay hides after inactivity; move or tap again to bring it back.
- If the guide is empty or says No guide for this channel, try another channel. The programme guide depends on provider data.
Expected result: You see the current show title and a list of upcoming programmes when schedule data is available. A new-programme notification appears briefly when the live schedule advances.
Can I watch a past programme?
The current Svelte interface does not offer a catch-up browser or a button to play past EPG items. Some backend routes support catch-up streams, but their presence does not establish a supported end-user workflow. The on-screen guide is for current and upcoming information.
