European culture, documentaries, music and cinema give ARTE a character of its own. Explore language choices, subtitles and the differences between live television and an on-demand programme.
The supplied artwork
Culture across languages
ARTE is known for European cultural programming, documentaries, music and cinema. Those programmes make audio language and subtitles particularly relevant. The logo is a reference to the subject, not a commercial affiliation.
Live schedule or an on-demand item
A scheduled channel programme and a separately listed on-demand documentary are different viewing routes. A guide time identifies a broadcast slot; an on-demand title page identifies an item in a library.
Make subtitles readable
Documentary interviews and foreign-language cinema benefit from clear text. Choose a font size and contrast that remain comfortable from your normal seat. The actual subtitle languages depend on the item.
