Filtering the Guides
Searching through hundreds of programs can be overwhelming. The digital satellite receiver will help

will display, providing the filtering tools and ways to access other guide styles.
By combining each of these filter options, you can quickly narrow down 210+ channels to those that
meet your viewing interests. Once you exit to view your program, all filters except for the favorite list
will reset to an unfiltered condition.
You should also be aware that some guide styles do not provide access to certain filter options. The
unavailable filters will not appear in the Guide Menu.

Theme Filters

When the Theme Filters button is highlighted and
is pressed, a pop-up menu appears. This
menu offers all the available category groupings of programs. After
choosing a category (other than All), the drop-down menu is
replaced by another menu called Types.
The Category pop-up menu
The Types pop-up menu allows you to break down your chosen theme by type. For example, if you
chose Movies for the category, you can now choose a type of movie
such as Comedy, Drama, Sci-Fi, etc. After selecting one of these, the
guide will be further filtered to show only those channels offering
programs of the selected category and type.
Popular categories can be quickly selected from your remote control
by pressing
followed by a number key. You will see labels on
the remote control for filtering the guide to movies, sports, news, and
all. Press
for movies,
for sports, or
for news and the guide will filter accordingly. Pressing the key
sequence a second time or pressing
will restore the guide
to show all themes.
