#### MediathekSuche Desktop App: search all media centers of German TV stations

This is the MediathekSuche.de app for desktop. Find, browse and play Video-on-Demand content from German Broadcasting Stations.

Please note that most content searchable through this app is IP geo-blocked by the originating media center and might not be accessible if you're outside Germany or Europe.

**All Media Centers in one app**

This app enables you to search all the larger and in sum nearly all German TV catch-up TV portals / media centers (Mediatheken) at once - those of public broadcasters and of commercial stations.

**Videos on Demand**

In most cases, you can start streaming videos right from the app. Yes, streaming can be this easy. Forget about jumping from website to website: ARD Mediathek, ZDF Mediathek, then RTL Mediathek... MediathekSuche for desktop unifies this experience across content providers and gives fast results.

**Missed an airing? No problem!**

Regardless if it was the latest episode of Tagesschau, a politics magazine, talkshows or regional coverage, an issue of Weltspiegel, Tagesthemen, heute Journal, a show, documentaries or regional news: Every single day German public broadcasting and commercial providers are generating tons of up to date informational programming and entertainment for their media centers and most of it is accessible for catch up by you. MediathekSuche is your tap into these vast resources, right at your fingertips.

**This is MediathekSuche**

The app is modeled closely after the experience on the MediathekSuche website: All available channels are displayed in a clickable bouquet. You can search content in fulltext or browse results by station or date.

<https://MediathekSuche.de> - Simply the "betterrr" Media Center.
Alle Mediatheken in einer App.
Sendung verpasst? ARD, ZDF, RTL, PRO7? Kein Problem mehr :)

If you prefer a PPA package based Linux install, you can hop over to our Launchpad version of the app: <https://launchpad.net/~mediatheksuche/+archive/ubuntu/mediatheksuche>

Installing and using this app is subject to the terms outlined on our website and available in the app.

## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install MediathekSuche for Desktop

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.

You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.

Tumbleweed:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
```

Leap 15.x:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
```

If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.

With the repository added, import its GPG key:

```
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
```

Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository:

```
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
```

Snap can now be installed with the following:

```
sudo zypper install snapd
```

You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
```
