Greek television: ERT service names and ERTFLIX programme destinations

Use the current official ERT names ERTFLIX brings several programme types together Greek production and Greek audio are separate attributes Keep original titles and current service context

Greek public television combines general, news, sports and internationally oriented identities with a digital catalogue. ERT’s current service names should be retained when identifying a programme, especially if an older favourite list uses earlier labels.

Use the current official ERT names

ERT’s current frequently asked questions list ERT News, ERT1, ERT2 SPOR, ERT3 and ERT COSMOS within its television offering. Those names distinguish different services; a broad ERT reference does not settle the intended schedule.

A viewer seeking a specific news edition should preserve the programme and service. A sports request needs the event, fixture and date rather than the sports service’s name as a complete rights statement.

ERTFLIX brings several programme types together

The broadcaster describes ERTFLIX with live and on-demand programming, including Greek and foreign fiction, films, documentaries, concerts, children’s content and archives. A programme found there may identify a particular episode without identifying what is currently on a linear channel.

Separate a catalogue choice from live-channel viewing. The same production can be relevant to both while the programme date, transmission and available version differ.

Greek production and Greek audio are separate attributes

A programme made by a Greek broadcaster can include foreign productions or different original languages. Original dialogue, dubbing and subtitles should be checked for the particular episode rather than inferred from a national folder.

A hypothetical family seeking Greek dialogue for regular listening has a different criterion from someone choosing a documentary about Greece with English subtitles. Both interests can be satisfied by Greek-related content without being the same programme-version request.

Keep original titles and current service context

Preserve the original Greek title alongside a Latin-script search form if useful. A translated subject such as Greek history may be too broad to identify one series or episode.

If an old saved entry appears unfamiliar, compare it with ERT’s current official service list before treating it as missing content. A corporate identity, a digital programme page and an external subscription line-up answer different questions; the first two do not establish the third.
