Use Play, Pause, Stop, fast forward
and Rewind
Most On DEMAND programs let you skip forward
and backward through the video using the play,
pause, stop, rewind and fast forward buttons on
the remote control.
• PLAY: This button starts your program
at normal speed.
• PAUSE: You can pause an On DEMAND
program for up to 15 minutes. Pausing
longer than that stops your program
and reopens the On DEMAND Menu. You
can resume watching your program from
the Recently Viewed Menu. PAUSE toggles
between the pause and play functions.
• STOP: This button ends your program and returns you back to the category from where you launched it.
• FAST FORWARD: This button lets you scan ahead in your program. Each successive press increases the speed
until you reach the highest speed. Pressing FAST FORWARD after the highest speed returns the program to
normal speed. You can resume watching at any time by pressing PLAY. If you fast forward to the program's
end, you will be returned to the On DEMAND Menu.
• REWIND: This button lets you scan backwards in your program. Each successive press increases the speed
until you reach the highest speed. Pressing REWIND after the highest speed returns the program to normal
speed. You can resume watching at any time by pressing PLAY. If left to rewind to the beginning, the program
will start playing automatically.
When you press any of these buttons, a progress bar appears at the bottom of your screen. It displays the viewing time
graphically as well as in hours, minutes and seconds.
Fast forward and other actions may be disabled on some programs.
Use Instant Replay
Press the INSTANT REPLAY button – indicated by a curved arrow – to
jump backward in the program seven seconds.
Exit On DEMAND
You can leave an On DEMAND program several ways:
• Press STOP to return to the On DEMAND Menu.
• Press LIVE or LAST to return to the last live television channel you were watching.
• Press CHANNEL UP or CHANNEL DOWN to tune to the next channel up or down on live television.
• Enter a channel number on the keypad (0-9) to tune directly to that live television channel.
• Press FAV to call up the first channel in your Favorite Channels list.
When skipping forward or backward through a
program, this progress bar appears on the screen.
It shows start time, end time and time viewed.
The Instant Replay button looks like this.
It is below the REWIND and Record buttons.
