StarShare viewing guide: Germany
Plan the language, programme identity, local time and device questions for your Germany viewing enquiry.
Das Erste and the regional programmes answer different needs
ARD distinguishes the national shared programme Das Erste from the regional programmes offered by its member broadcasters. For a German shortlist, name the regional service when local news or regional programming is important. Add the programme title and edition rather than treating the ARD name as one interchangeable feed. A separate media-library item is also a different request from a live linear programme.
Name the track you need.
Language references for Germany include the names below. Tell support which ones describe your actual dialogue, subtitle or guide requirement. These are language references, not a guarantee of the available tracks on a particular source.
Keep these choices separate.
- Exact programme, channel/feed or title edition.
- Spoken audio and subtitles, stated independently.
- Viewing city and the programme’s date.
- Actual device model, operating system and player.
A capital reference is Berlin. Use your actual viewing location rather than assuming every resident follows the capital’s setup.
One UTC instant, local viewing times.
The table converts 7 November 2026 at 18:00 UTC using IANA 2026f. Location records are not a count of distinct current offsets. Seasonal rules can change the conversion on another date.
| IANA location | Reference area | Local date and time | UTC offset then |
|---|---|---|---|
| Europe/Berlin | most of Germany | 2026-11-07 19:00 | +01:00 |
| Europe/Busingen | Busingen | 2026-11-07 19:00 | +01:00 |
