Programme guide and time · Samsung Smart TV

For Samsung Smart TV, check the device clock, local time zone and channel mapping separately. A playable channel can still have a missing or shifted schedule.

Programme guide and time on Samsung Smart TV

Guide data connects programme entries to channel identifiers. A time-zone problem shifts otherwise useful listings; a mapping problem can leave only a few channels without listings.

Android APKs are not native Tizen apps. App availability can differ by TV model, software release and store region.

Check the Samsung TV setup

Platform to identify: Tizen or the operating system shown for the exact Samsung model
Controls used in this guide: The samsung television remote
Keep privately: Any supported app export and a private record of the account route

Use the installed TV app and model-specific Samsung settings. Keep a full Smart Hub or TV reset as a later support-led action.

Samsung TV checklist for programme guide and time

Identify the stage
Compare the programme guide time with the device clock and the actual programme being shown on one channel.
Use the Samsung TV route
Check the clock and time zone on Samsung TV, then use the installed player’s own guide refresh or offset control if it provides one.
Compare one useful result
Use the player’s guide refresh once. If a supported per-playlist offset exists, record its original value before comparing a change.
Confirm the outcome
The schedule matches the correct channel and time, or you have a precise example of a missing or shifted listing.

A detour to avoid for programme guide and time

Do not change the system clock to compensate for one incorrectly mapped channel. Repeated guide downloads do not repair an unsupported mapping.
