Viewing Live Television
Interactive Channels
Interactive channels are unique because in addition to video and audio, they
also contain a software application that lets you interact with what you see on
the screen. When accessing these channels you will have to wait a few seconds
for the software to download.
Press the ACTIVE button on your remote to get the latest weather,
horoscopes, lottery results and more. The channel is ready to interact when
the yellow highlight box appears.
When you want to exit an interactive channel, simply press GUIDE and pick the
channel you want to move to or you can type in the new channel number while
in the interactive channel.
Other interactive channels can be found in the guide from channels 100 to
115. The News Mix and Sports Mix channels let you see up to eight of the
hottest channels on one screen. Move the yellow highlight box around using
the direction arrows on your remote to hear the audio associated with each
channel. If you want to see one of the channels full-screen, simply move the
yellow highlight box on top of it and press SELECT.
