Morphology

teleview = view (semi-transparent) = tele + view

The broadcast/program sense is understandable as something meant to be viewed on television, though the TV-related prefix is specialized.

Etymology

Teleview is built from tele- 'far' and view 'to see', the same parts you find in television, which makes it easy to remember. So a teleview is a broadcast or program meant to be seen on TV.
