TVTV EPG and Timer

The

EPG is a latest-generation Electronic Programme Guide.

It provides all the EPG information for around 60 TV channels at no

charge, without you having to change channel, and also offers schedule

information up to a week ahead (depending on programme provider).

Accessing the TVTV EPG for the First Time

Press

to access the

EPG. The first time you access it (if you

have not yet run an ASTRA satellite scan and the

data have not

yet been updated!) you see the following on-screen display:

To safeguard the functionality of

the EPG, the satellite scan

must be run on the ASTRA satellite

(in multifeed reception mode for

“All satellites”). In this operation

the necessary signal identifiers for

the

EPG are downloaded

(SID, TSID and OID).

Press

to cancel the display. Exit the

EPG by pressing the

button. You now have two options for updating the

data:

- To get the data immediately, switch the receiver off by the

button.

The receiver first displays the message “Receiving tvtv”, then the

download status as a percentage (Downloading tvtv ...%). As soon

as the display no longer indicates this message, you can switch the
receiver back on by pressing the

button and begin using the

EPG.

- To download the data at a specific time when you will not be using the

receiver, you can set a download time on the receiver as described

under “User Preference” - “EPG Grabbing Setup”.
