Search By Title
Search By Title finds programs, even if you just know the first part of the title.
To find a specific program:
1. If you wish, you can first narrow the search with a category and subcategory.
2. The next screen has a grid with numbers and
letters. On the keypad screen, spell out the title
by using the arrow buttons to move around,
then pressing select on each letter you want.
(Skip “a,” “an,” or “the.”) As you select letters,
an alphabetical list of programs appears to the
right of the keypad. Keep selecting letters until
you see your program.
(The CLEAR button on the remote erases
everything; the BACK button erases one letter at a time; FWD inserts a space.)
3. When you see your program, press RIGHT arrow until the highlight is in the list. To
move the highlight within the list, press the UP and DOWN arrows. You can also press
CHAN UP/DOWN to quickly move up or down the list.
4. Press SELECT when the title you want is highlighted. The Program Information
screen will appear. Then you can view upcoming episodes, set up a Season Pass, or
record an individual showing.
To browse a category of upcoming programs: Choose a category and subcategory.
Numbers come before letters, so to start from the top, enter a zero.
Replace hyphens ( - ), slashes ( / )
and periods ( . ) with spaces. For
example, use 20 20 to search for the title
“20/20”. Any other marks, such as
apostrophes ( ’ ), asterisks ( * )
ampersands ( & ) and dollar signs ( $ ) are
ignored. For example, you would use
6 OCLOCK NEWS to search for the title
“6 O’Clock News.”
If you only know one word in the
title, use a Title Wishlist to find the
program. See page 40 for more
information.
