How do I use the mini-guide and categories in the player?
From the player, open the mini-guide to see what's on other channels and switch category, without leaving live playback.
Nipo doesn’t provide, sell or host any channel, movie or playlist: it plays what you already own.
The mini-guide stays free, no Premium needed: it's a shortcut to what's on other channels right now, without opening the full-screen TV Guide.

Tip
The mini-guide shows what's on right now, not upcoming times: to see the full programme grid across several hours, open the TV Guide from Home (the remote's green key on devices that have one).
