General Information
The following describes the basic functions of your Mediamaster
while watching satellite TV or listening to satellite radio.
Some of the functions described here are dependent on the
Service Provider and can only be used if they are included in
the transmitted programme information.
Please note, that during the Channel Search procedure, the
Mediamaster may download a large number of channels. This
may include channels from various Service Providers, also those
to which you do not have access unless you have a Smartcard
from one of those Service Providers.
If you select a programme to which you do not have access, you
will get a message on the screen. This message may vary, de-
pending on Service Provider and used Smartcard/CA Module.
While viewing, the current channel number will be shown on the
front panel display.
In addition to the normal functions like switching the Media-
master in/out of stand-by, changing the volume etc. (ref. to the
overview of the remote control) there are some other useful func-
tions which will be explained in this part of the manual.
