I'm running Tumbleweed.
MediathekView 11.0-13.2 does not start.

Error message is: 

@noname:/usr/bin>  MediathekView.sh
/usr/bin/MediathekView.sh: Unable to determine Java version
Java virtual machine used: /usr/lib64/jvm/jre/bin/java

"/usr/lib64/jre" (there is no "usr/lib/jre/bin/java"!) 
is pointing to:
"/etc/alternatives/jre".

"etc/alternatives/jre" 
is pointing to
"/usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.9.0-openjdk"

This is the wrong java version. 
If i change "usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.9.0-openjdk" to
"/usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk" it is running.

There are always problems, as version 1.9.0 is the default on Tumbleweed.
When I work with the zip version, I have to do this:

noname:~ #  update-alternatives --config java
There are 3 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).

  Selection    Path                                       Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------

  3            /usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.9.0-openjdk/bin/java   1905      manual

Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 2
update-alternatives: using /usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk/bin/java to provide
/usr/bin/java (java) in manual mode

to make it run. Sometimes after an update, I have to repeat it.
