Confirm the channel under Directos
Open RTVE Play’s live directory and identify the channel and programme by their schedule entries. When looking for a territorial bulletin, check the region shown in the title before saving a favourite. The national channel name may be the same while the bulletin’s edition or insertion time changes.
Check the time zone when comparing schedules
Write down the time as listed and whether it is mainland or Canary Islands time. If a guide listing consistently opens the next or previous programme, check how it converted the time. Test against two published programmes on the same channel and compare their actual starts before changing a manual offset.
Verify captions on the programme you need
If subtitles or a particular audio track matter, open the official programme on your viewing device and look at the active player’s controls. Run one live and one replay check. For programmes in Catalan, Basque or Galician, check the regional broadcaster’s own schedule when RTVE Play does not list the exact edition you were looking for.
Broadcaster and feed references
Check the broadcaster for the current schedule, device requirements and viewing territory.
