I usually scroll through the guide, go forward, then scroll again. Anyone use a different method?

Click to expand...

Hit skip or type in the hours that you want to jump ahead and hit the right arrow.

Using theme will not only fine tune the type of program you may be looking for, but you would mostly need to only scroll down or you can advance to the next day.

Just made me try Themes.
It's missing program descriptions and ratings direct or on info button
and the times because most of those are repeated.
Descriptions are given for PPV and some other choices. Which?
I never bothered with it before. The tiles work well here for cover art.

Hit the pound key to do a search - hit clear - type the shows name on the numeric keypad.

Much faster for me than searching through the guide (I never know the channel #'s).
