You can search for any program, and (other than with zdfmediathek.app) high-quality mp4’s (not Flash-files) are offered.
Of course, it can’t hold a candle to Mediathek; however, it gets the job (somewhat) done.

I'm still on Snow Leopard, so I have Java installed by default. For newer versions of OS X I found this link on MU:
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/44788/java-se-runtime-environment-7
I did not try this Java installation, though. The app itself works for me, at least - but it is extremely poor compared to the original "Mediathek".

My system is still the Mac OS X 10.5.8 PPC, so I cannot use the Java version you suggested. My old Mediathek 2.6.4b simply stopped working last night, and I have uninstalled it. When I try to install it again, it informs me that there is no connection with the server, and that I have to check the settings of my network.
+24
I don't have any idea for a workaround for 10.5 PPC.
There are a few recorders for TV programmes on the internet like onlinetvrecorder, save.TV, Bong.TV and others.

today I have received an e-mail from the developer. It says that they had to close down the server because of copyright issues, which I have feared ever since I found and installed this software. This means, if anyone else would run such a server and develop a similar software, the same thing would happen again.
+23
I installed it successfully on 10.6.8 and, apparently, downloading works. However, VLC refuses to play the file ("undefinable format").
As far as I can figure it out, the file (or the transfer?) is an Adobe RMTP/Flash-file (Real Time Messaging Protocol). That is why, apparently, there is the application flvstreamer involved. Still, this doesn’t seem to work for me.
Moreover, could RMTP be the culprit that "Mediathek" stopped working? Any proprietary Adobe stuff/licenses involved?
On Twitter, the two German broadcasters ARD and WDR explicitly refused responsibility as regards the demise of "Mediathek". Of course, everybody is free to be skeptical about their assertions. But it could mean that the "legal issues" claimed by the developer do not have to do with the broadcasters (as far as right holders of the content) but with the (with the new year apparently changed) technical infrastructure of the broadcasters. Just an idea.

Ansonsten ein tolles Programm! Ich würde es sehr vermissen!

And now it is impossible to go back to old version of Mediathek. Someone can help?
Bonjour, la dernière version de Mediathek ne fonctionne plus sur mon mac 10.5.8 :(
Le programme me dit que je ne suis plus relié au web ou que le serveur est innaccessible alors que tout marche nickel.
Et à présent, il est impossible de remettre l'ancienne version de Mediathek (obligation de la quitter car j'aurais créé une banque de donnée avec Mediathek mis à jour, et ce même en mettant cette nouvelle database à la poubelle). Quelqu'un peut aider?

Thanks for the info, though.
Must be something else then. Never had any problems with "Mediathek" before switching to ML.

The database in "~/Library/Application Support/Mediathek" must have been corrupt.
After deleting this folder the app runs fine again.
Thanks again for pointing out that it wasn't related to ML.
