Navigating your Fusion System
FILTERING FUNCTION:
Like the rest of the commands covered in this chapter, the easiest way to
bring up the Filter function is to press the i or [Menu] button. From there
you will be able to easily access all navigation functions. Once you are in
the main menu, select the [Filter] button. When you do, you will see the
following screen:
Filter is exactly as you would imagine it, select something to filter your
movie collection. For example if you have 1000 movies, it’s a lot to pe-
ruse. By filtering by just the Action genre, you would now only see movies
that are considering ‘action’ type movies. This will give you a much more
manageable amount of movies to look at.
TechTip:
To cancel any sort or filter function, simply hit the
[Back] or exit button.
FILTERING OPTIONS:
The two most common filtering options are Genre (filtering a type of
movie) and Participant (filtering the results by a specific actor or director).
Category is a left purposely blank. This is for users who want to use the
Media Manager to create there own criteria for filtering. An example of
this might be (Dad’s Favorites) if someone tags each movie they like with
that term, they will later be able to filter by it.
Finally, one of the most powerful filter options is the Keyword Search.
When you select keyword, an on-screen keyboard will pop up and you can
type in any phrase you’d like. The system will search the entire movie da-
tabase for that phrase including things like titles, actors, directors, movie
synopsis etc.
