Using AutoView to change channels automatically
You can set up the Personal Planner to tune to a programme
automatically rather than showing you a reminder – this is called
AutoView. A reminder banner will still be displayed one minute
before the programme is due to start, and your Sky digibox will tune
to the selected programme at its start time unless you intervene by
pressing back up.
AutoView is particularly useful if you want to record programmes. For
further information on recording satellite TV programmes, refer to
Recording a satellite programme on page 39.
To turn AutoView on or off, highlight the programme in the Personal
Planner, then press the ‘AutoView’ (red) key. An ‘A’ icon is shown
next to the programme, indicating that AutoView is on for that
programme.
AutoView may not be available for certain programmes, such as Box
Office programmes.
If the programme selected for AutoView has a rating higher than your
current Parental Control Restrictions, Sky Guide reminds you to
disable these Restrictions to permit unattended recording of the
programme.
Using Series Link for a series or regular programme
If the Series Link option appears on-screen when you highlight a
programme in your Personal Planner, this means this programme is
one episode of a series on that channel.
Press the ‘Series Link’ (green) key if you want to watch the next
episode. The Series Link icon (see page 16) is then shown next to the
programme indicating that the link is set. You can link only
programmes that are broadcast on the same channel.
When Sky Guide tunes your digibox to the programme, the next
episode will be automatically added to your Personal Planner with the
link set.
If your Sky digibox does not tune to the listed episode (perhaps
because you have chosen to watch something else), the link will be
broken and future episodes of the programme will not be added to
your Personal Planner. You will need to reselect the programme from
the listings to set the link again.
You can link only programmes that are part of a series.
