Programação Telecine

I finally did what I had been meaning to do for a while now: redesign the schedule page of Telecine’s 5 movie channels. Telecine, Brazil’s Cinemax if you will, does have a schedule posted on its website but it’s done in Flash, it’s slow and it’s poorly designed. What’s more, it’s not going away anytime soon since they just completed their grand redesign.

My answer to their non-site is quite simple. I wrote one Python script which parses their monthly schedule file into XML—that operation happens once a month—and one PHP script which displays what’s currently on and what’s showing for the next 12 hours.

Check it out; it’s called programação Telecine.
