2B. SEARCH TOOLS

With over 400 channels and two weeks of programming information, sometimes it can be difficult to find what you’re looking for using the Guide. By using the Search Tools built into your receiver, you can easily find programs by title, time, or genre.

TITLE SEARCH

Title Search allows you to input the name of the show or movie you’re looking for. Matching results will be displayed on the right side of the screen, where you can tune into the program, see upcoming air dates, set up a recording or reminder, or get information about the show.

After selecting “Title Search” from the Menu Bar, use the DIRECTIONAL ARROWS and ENTER button to type letters into the Search tool. Results will begin to narrow as soon as the first letter is entered. Once you see what you’re looking for, use the RIGHT ARROW to select the list, and the UP or DOWN keys to select the program. Pressing ENTER will give you the Program Options menu on the HDPVR, and the Upcoming Air Dates screen on the HDDSR.

Note: You cannot input accented characters into Title Search. Simply enter part of the title which does not contain any accented characters (for example, “journal” in “téléjournal”) and Search will find the program.

INTERESTS SEARCH

Interests Search is useful when you’re not looking for a specific show, don’t know the title of the show you’re looking for, or just want to find a particular genre to watch or record. Similar to Title Search, as you select the time, category, and genre you are looking for, results will narrow or expand on the right side of the screen.

After selecting “Interests” from the Menu Bar, use the UP and DOWN keys to select the time you would like to search in. Examples include “anytime”, “up next”, or “this week”. Then, use the RIGHT ARROW to select the middle column where you can pick a broad category using the UP and DOWN keys. A variety of choices are available here, including “Movies”, “Sports”, “Children”, and “HD”. Use the RIGHT ARROW again to select the third column, which will show the available genres, such as “Action”, “Musical Comedy”, “Nature”, or “Talk”. Once the genre you’re looking for has loaded, use the RIGHT ARROW to select the list, and the UP or DOWN keys to browse through the available programs. Pressing ENTER will give you the Program Options menu on the HDPVR, and the Upcoming Air Dates screen on the HDDSR.
