Download one available programme
Select a matching result and start a manual download. The portal coordinates the job; autofetch does not store or relay the media file.
Find programmes, watch for episodes and download locally
Automate media-library downloads
autofetch searches media libraries through MediathekViewWeb. Send an available programme directly to your client or create a watch that detects an episode published later.
How a media-library download works
- Search the integrated MediathekViewWeb provider for a title, programme or episode.
- Start a one-off download for an available result or save the search as a watch.
- autofetch creates a traceable download job when a result matches.
- Your connected client downloads directly from the source to your selected folder.
Detect new episodes automatically
A watch remains active for series or recurring programmes, checks the source again and sends a later match to your client.
What autofetch handles
- Search and preview through the connected media-library provider
- Repeated checks for saved watches
- Creation and status display of download jobs
- Dispatch to your selected local client
What still depends on the source
Availability, publication windows, regions, quality and file formats are controlled by the media library. autofetch can only process results exposed by the provider.
