8.4.4 After the scan

You can follow the progress of the programme scan on screen while it is still in progress. When the scan is comple- ted, the total number of programmes found as well as the number of new programmes found will be indicated. In addi- tion, a prompt will be displayed, asking you whether you wish to save the programmes found automatically in the TV or Radio list. If you wish to accept the programme list automati- cally, you can then decide whether the programmes should be added to the Favourites list in sorted or unsorted formn.

Sorted

The programmes found will be sorted into the Favourites list in accordance with a pre-programmed list. The order in which programmes are listed will depend on the audio language selected in Point 6.3.2 resp. the country selected in Point 6.2.2.

Unsorted

The newly found programmes will be added to the end of the Favourites list in unsorted form.

No

The newly found programmes will not be added to the Favourites list, and will only be added to the Total list.
