Searching for programs in the Guide

search the Guide:

or year you type using an on-screen keyboard.
By Title:

an on-screen keyboard.
By Text:
Lets you find programs for which either the credits or the title
match the search term you type using an on-screen keyboard.

categories you select from an on-screen list.
These search techniques are described in the sections that follow.
