Finding Programs to Watch

Using Search to Find a Program

USING SEARCH TO FIND A PROGRAM

You can find programs to watch by using the Search feature of the receiver. This feature will search all channels, including over-the-air channels (if an over-the-air antenna is connected to the receiver as described on page 95), and find programs that match keywords that you enter.

Using the Search Feature

You can search for events two ways:

•Select Title to search for the words that appear in the title of a program.

•Select Info to search for words that are in the program description or title.

Enter the search word(s) in the Search Criteria Field in one of two ways (see page 22):

•Use the virtual keyboard.

•Use the letters on the NUMBER PAD.

If you select a program that is on now, the receiver tunes to that program. If you choose a future program, the Create Timer screen will display. See Chapter 8 - Recording Future Programs on page 51 for more information.

Using Search History

After you have searched previously for programs or other information, your receiver builds a history. You can use the Search History to re-search programming instead of typing the information again.

Note: Use the Edit or Delete options to change or delete Search Keywords.
