Tag a program for future viewing

You can set up your viewing schedule ahead of time, so that

 

 

 

you will be automatically notified of the shows you want to

 

 

 

see.This is called “tagging”. On the Guide, tagged programs

 

 

 

have a checkmark to the right of the program name.You can

 

 

 

tag up to 25 programs.

notification banner displays 3 minutes before the program

 

 

 

starts. Press OK to tune to the channel.

Notification dialog, choose whether you want to tag this

 

 

 

program once, daily, weekly, or Monday-Friday. Remember, you

different time slot, you will want to retag it.

 

 

 

2. Press OK on the Tag for Notification dialog. If the program is in

 

 

 

the same time slot as another tagged program, the system will

 

 

 

prompt you that a conflict exists.
