The Electronic Program Guide
■In the filter settings you can select the genre, date and time to obtain information about programs in the future. You can choose a day and the time of the day (morning, afternoon, evening and night) from dropdown lists or you
can set the exact time with the + and – buttons.
If you tap the 
button, the EPG data will automatically display the programs currently playing of the genre(s) you have selected.
■In the program overview the list of programs that meet your selection criteria, which you defined in the upper part of the screen, appears.
■The detailed information for the selected program is displayed in the left part of the screen: subject, actors, start and end time, and so on.
For example, tap the Movies button and select Wednesday Evening, 8:00 PM in the filter settings. A list of movies that are playing at that time on Wednesday will appear in the program overview. When you select one of the movies in the list, a detailed description will appear in the left part of the EPG.
The EPG has two power features:
The Watch Feature
When you select a program in the program overview, you can immediately surf to this program with the button. This Watch button only appears when you select a program that is currently playing on TV.
The SmartSurfer |
|
When you are displaying a list of programs that are currently playing in the program overview, the | buttons |
appear. With these SmartSurf buttons you can easily surf through the programs in the list. For example: if you want to
watch sports but not soaps or home shopping, then tap “sports” and flip through only what you want to see: football, soccer, baseball, tennis, car racing. With the SmartSurf buttons your TV will simply surf through the sports shows that are on TV and it will skip channels that do not broadcast sports shows, even during commercial breaks.
