Films on Lem's books

Hi Karel,
nice link, but ... this is the English forum, you see? Could someone shed some light on the list of films mentioned there? Thanks!
re. Ikrai: I watched this series on TV when I was a child in GDR TV. The problem is: These fantastic SF films were synchronized by GDR TV and the films now rest on some archive shelf. I don't know who the rights has to broadcast them. Maybe the regional stations MDR or RBB in Germany. But I don't have satellite nor cable TV.
re "Der schweigende Stern": I actually own the DVD (German soundtrack)). Surely, it's a high qualitiy production for the end of the 50s and the technical quality of the DVD is surprisingly good. The story is rather political and goes about peaceful cooperation between the East and the West, the aftermath of a nuclear war, and so on. Nevertheless worth watching for those who understand German. I also watched this when I was a teenage kid. We used to play Kosmokrator, after the name of the starship. There's also an US version ("First Spaceship on Venus") of that movie with an English soundtrack but the story is totally different. See: http://www.dvdtalk.com/dvdsavant/s138first.html or here: http://tesla.liketelevision.com/liketelevision/tuner.php?channel=1007&format=movie&theme=guide or do you own google search.
