I Already Know What I Want to Record . . .

The following options are useful if you already know the title of the program you want to

record:

Search by Title

Record by Time or Channel

Manually Record by Time or Channel

Search by Title

Use Search by Title if you are looking for a specific program and you know its name.

1. After selecting Search by Title, you have the option of limiting your search to a

category of programs (such as movies or sports). This is useful if you just want to

browse through a list of upcoming programs in a given category and/or subcategory. If

you do not want to choose a category, select “All Programs.”

2. The next screen lets you type the title of the program you are looking for. Use the

arrow buttons on the remote to move around the keypad. Press SELECT on each letter

of your program title. As you select letters, a list of programs appears to the right of the

keypad. Continue entering letters until you see your program in the list. (For a quick

review of how to enter titles using the onscreen keypad, see “Tour 3: Find and Record

Your Favorite Programs” on page 38.)

3. Use the RIGHT arrow to move the highlight to the program list.

4. When you find a program you want to record, highlight it and press SELECT to bring

up the Program Information screen.
