Use the Themes and Search feature to find exactly what you want to watch. This section
shows you how to use Themes to find your favorite programs by type (such as movies,
sports, or news), or by keyword (if you're looking for a particular actor or description).
You can list and choose programs by the theme of their contents, for example, just movies
or just sports. Use Themes and Search to quickly find programs based on the following:
Theme and Sub-Theme. Search for programs by category (such as Movies or
•
Sports). Use sub-theme to narrow the type of program. The Sub-Theme feature is
different for each Theme category.
Keyword. Use this selection to be even more specific (for example, actor or
•
description). You can even search for something to watch just by Keyword. This
feature also categorizes programs on off-air channels (if an over-the-air antenna is
connected to the receiver as described on page 96). You can search for events two
ways:
Select Title to search for the words that appear in the title of a program.
–
Select Info to search for words that are in the program description or title.
–
Enter the Keyword(s) in the Search Criteria Field in one of two ways:
