Add a Channel
This setting allows you to select a frequency on which you'd like to find a channel. The media
device will scan that frequency to find any available channels, and you can add them to your
channel list.
Channel List
The Channel List is a list of free-to-air channels you are currently receiving, compiled when the
media device performs a channel scan. (The media device performs a channel scan the first time
you set it up; you can re-run a channel scan at any time. See "Channel Scan" below for details.)
The media device adds channels found during the scan to the Channel List, and, in most cases,
selects them as one of the channels you receive. (A channel is selected if it has a check mark
next to it.) At times, the media device may find multiple channels with the same channel
number. When this happens, both channels are added to the channel list, but only the channel
with the higher signal strength is selected as one of your received channels.
Only channels you receive are displayed in the guide and are available for recording programs.
Features such as Search By Title and WishList searches look for programs only on channels
™
you receive.
If a channel is in the list but is not selected as a channel you receive, you can select it manually
(see "Customising Your Channel List" below). Alternatively, you can always tune to it while
watching Live TV by entering the channel number on your remote control and pressing
ENTER.
