Introduction

The Moxi Menu is the easiest, most intuitive way to browse and com- mand the expanding range of programming content and services.

The Emmy® Award-winning dual-axis navigation (see figure 1) puts content choices right at the top of the menu instead of forcing you to dig through several levels of menus.

Vertical band with subcategories or selections

Center focus is the active card

Horizontal band with category or filter selections

Powerful browsing and search tools

Searching through hundreds of channels one by one is no way to find shows. With the mini-TV window, you can browse the menu without interrupting what you are watching.

Total access — Integrated menu displays cable programming and media applications, such as Jukebox, Photos, and Games.

Intuitive action menus — Choices (such as watch, record, or close) are presented in clear pop-up menus.

Integrated On Demand and Pay Per View — Listings available from multiple locations.

Browse while viewing — The mini-TV window and Moxi Flip Bar make it easy to browse program information and set pro- grams to record without leaving the current show.

Powerful search — Search two full weeks of guide data, includ- ing On Demand and Pay Per View listings, by title, keyword, and category.

Category filters — Browse by category – HDTV, movies, sports, kids, news, music, and more.

Parental controls — Block shows by TV rating, movie rating, or channel, and set On Demand and PPV purchase options.
