8.4 USING THE ON-SCREEN TV GUIDE
Your digital receiver has the ability to display details of programmes currently being broadcast
and those being broadcast immediately afterwards. You can change channels on your digital
receiver whilst the information is displayed on your TV.

information will be displayed on your TV. At any of the following stages, you can return to
normal viewing by pressing the INFO or EXIT button. Make the banner text in the
photograph consistent with the menu tree on page 10 : Channel 1 / BBC ONE.
The top half of the screen will display the current channel number, channel name, the name
of the current programme and the time.
The bottom half of the screen will initially show the same information and additionally, the
name and start time of the programme currently being shown as well as that of the next
programme. It will also show options to view more information about the programmes.
2. Whilst this information is displayed on-screen, you can press the UP and DOWN arrow
buttons, or number buttons 0 to 9 on your remote to see programme information for other
channels, without actually changing the channel you are currently watching.
As you change channels, the top part of the screen will continue to display information for
the channel you are currently watching.
3. If you want to change channels whilst this screen is displayed, you can do so by pressing
the SELECT button on your remote when the information for the channel you require is
displayed.
4. As part of this feature, you also have access to additional information about both the current

information about the current programme and the BLUE button for the next programme.
Pressing the same button a second time will return to the standard programme information.
Note:
The channel cannot be changed by pressing the SELECT button if you are viewing
information for the next programme.
5. When viewing the additional programme information you may find that it is not all displayed
on one screen. In this case, use the UP and DOWN arrow buttons as indicated on screen to
display this information.
The lower section of the on screen TV guide also indicates whether subtitles are available on a
particular programme, whether it is broadcast in mono or stereo and also the type of programme.
