About
Glotze is a GNOME-native desktop client for searching videos across ARD, ZDF, 3sat, arte and the other German public broadcasters via the MediathekViewWeb API. Episodes can be downloaded to the local Videos folder for offline viewing. Playback and streaming are intentionally out of scope — Glotze hands you the file and steps out of the way. Features: - Search the combined MediathekViewWeb catalogue across every German public broadcaster - Choose a download quality — low, medium or high — per result - Download episodes to your Videos folder with a live progress indicator - Per-broadcaster channel logos for quick visual scanning of results
