SORTING THE GUIDES

Sorting the guide is a way of organizing the guide to show only the types of programs that interest you. There are several on- screen buttons that sort the guide in different ways.

The Sorting buttons appear at the bottom of the

Grid Guide and Detail Guide.

Topics

The Topics button sorts the guide according to the current user’s preferences. Select the Topics button to sort the guide.

The Topics button changes to the Topics Themes button. Press the Topics Themes button to edit the current user’s themes preferences. These preferences are saved in each user’s profile.

Checkmark the themes that interest you.

Select the categories, and checkmark the themes you would like to appear when you select the Topics button in the guides. Programming that fits the description of checkmarked themes will appear in the guide when you sort by the Topics button.
