General information
The following describes the basic functions of your Mediamaster
that can be used while watching satellite TV or listening to sat-
ellite radio.
Some of the functions described here are dependent on the
Service Provider and can only be used if they are included
in the transmitted programme information.
Please note that during the Channel Search procedure, the
Mediamaster may download a large number of channels. This
may include channels from various Service Providers, including
those to which you do not have access unless you have a smart
card from one of those Service Providers.
If you select a programme to which you do not have access, you
will see a message on the screen. This message may vary de-
pending on the Service Provider and the smart card/CA Module
that you are using.
In addition to the normal functions such as switching the Media-
master in/out of standby mode, changing the volume etc., there
are other useful functions which will be explained in this part of
the manual.
You can always exit a menu at any time, without affecting any
settings, by pressing back.
If you are listening to a radio station and do not press any but-
tons on the remote control, the picture fades after 2 minutes.

Programme information

Every time you change channels, you will receive programme in-
formation for a few seconds. (In the “User preferences” menu
of the Control folder, you can select the time period during which
this information is shown.)

The current time.
A channel list.

mation available” will be shown.
