Receiving TV guide info

The TV guide receives information (data) from broadcasters or from the Internet. In some regions and for some channels, TV guide information might not be available. The TV can collect TV guide information for the channels that are installed on the TV (e.g. the channels you watch with Watch TV). The TV cannot collect the TV guide information from channels viewed from a digital receiver or decoder.

The TV comes with the information set to From the broadcaster.

If TV guide information comes from the Internet, the TV guide can also list analogue channels next to the digital channels. In the TV guide menu, you can view the current channel you are watching in a small screen.

Set the TV guide information

If the TV is connected to the Internet, you can set the TV to receive the TV guide information from the broadcaster.

To set the TV guide information, press h, select S Setup and press OK.

Select TV settings > General settings > TV guide. Select From the broadcaster or From the Internet.

Missing recordings

When some recordings seem to have disappeared from the list of recordings, the TV guide info (data) might have changed. Recordings made with the setting From the broadcaster become invisible in the list if you switch the setting to From the Internet or vice versa. The TV might have switched to From the Internet automatically.

To make the recordings available in the list of recordings, switch to the setting that was selected when the recordings were made.
