Rai 5 programmes and identity
Rai 5 is the cultural television service included in the current RaiPlay live directory. It has a distinct place for readers interested in performance, arts and factual subjects beyond a broad entertainment schedule. The creator, work and type of programme can be as important to that audience as the channel name itself.
A full stage performance, a portrait of an artist and a documentary about a cultural subject are different viewing experiences. Giving the reader that distinction helps them choose between an evening devoted to a work and a shorter introduction to its background. The official programme page supplies the particular production or edition, while the television schedule establishes the actual broadcast time.
From the schedule to your screen
A television channel follows a running schedule. Its broadcaster may also have an app or on-demand collection, but a programme listed in one place does not automatically identify the same edition in another. Keeping the original channel name with a title makes the viewing route easier to recognise.
What to look for in the programme guide
Performing arts, creators, cultural documentaries and full works versus artist portraits.

Following Rai 5 from another time zone
A national television brand can have regional editions, and the household may be watching from another country altogether. The country guide includes a dated time converter so an announced programme start can be connected with the local calendar day.
