Getting the Most Out of It
Watching Video Tape
To watch a videotape, perform steps 1 and 2 as described in Watching DVD. Instead of
selecting the DVD as the applicable source, select the VCR . In the combined
control screen for TV-VCR, choose the desired function.
Watching a Program Using EPG
Let’s go back to the situation where you want to watch a movie on your flat screen TV
in the living room. In the event that you don’t know what is on, you may want to use
the Electronic Program Guide (EPG) to find out tonight’s program schedule.
The EPG displays television program information on the RC9800i. For example, you can
check which programs Station XYZ is broadcasting today between 7 and 9 pm.
Likewise, you can search for a sports program in any given time slot in the upcoming 7
days.
In order to be able to use the EPG, you must first perform some EPG service-related
settings, see ‘Electronic Program Guide (EPG)’ beginning on page 46.
Attention! Some service-related settings are to be performed on a PC using a Web
browser, NOT on the RC9800i. You must first perform these settings before you can use
the EPG on the RC9800i.
After you have performed the service settings, you can activate the EPG on your
RC9800i, download the television program data and start consulting them.
To access the EPG information on your RC9800i, proceed as follows:
1 On the Homepage of your RC9800i, choose Watch.
2 Select the internal tuner , the cable box or the satellite box
as the applicable broadcast source. A combined control screen will then
appear.
3 Choose the Guide button.
The EPG screen will appear.
Note Make sure your date, time and time zone are correctly set. For further information on
Date & Time Settings, please see page 17.
Good To Know: Electronic Program Guide
The EPG application uses lists (US) or grids (Europe) to display the program listings.
