Watching TV & listening to the radio
General
You can watch digital TV or listen to digital radio via satellite with
the Mediamaster receiver.
• If no TV channel is automatically shown after you finish the
installation procedure, press the
P+

P-
button to select a
channel.
• If that does not work, open the Navi Bars with the
navi

• Scroll to the TV channels folder and select a channel.
For more information on Navi Bars, see page 18.
During the Channel Search procedure, the Mediamaster may
download a large number of channels. These may include channels
from various Service Providers, including those for which you may
not have a valid smart card. If you select a program for which you
do not have access, you will see a message saying so on the screen.
Program information
The Mediamaster can display information about TV and radio
programs that are currently being broadcast as well as about those
that will be broadcast next.
Some of the advanced functions described here can only be used if
they are included in the program information transmitted by your
Service Provider.
When you change channels with the
P+/P-
button, a program
information banner is displayed for a few seconds. (For more
information on setting the duration of the banner, see page 19).
You can also press

- a bar indicating the elapsed time of the current program
- the start and stop times for the next program
By pressing

again, the extended information banner will
appear. Use the
cursor left/right
button to switch between the
current and next program information.
If the text continues on the next page, use the
