WATCHWORD™
The WATCHWORD popup is used to specify up to
eight different words that can be used to identify
programming of interest to you. The HD receiver will
search the program titles and descriptions in the
guide for programs that contain matching words.
These matches will be displayed when you select the
RESTART button. Some matches will be displayed
as soon as they are found, and others will be added as
the search continues in the background.

General On-Screen Guide Features
While there are different ways the guides can appear, there are some things they have in common.
The guide name will always appear in the upper left corner. It may be something simple like
"PROGRAM GUIDE." If you have filtered the guide, it could be more descriptive such as
"COMEDY MOVIES GUIDE." (See the "Filtering the Guides" subsection later in this chapter.)
