6.8 How to Run MHP Interactive
Applications
Your receiver supports downloading and running MHP interactive
applications. Some applications are run automatically on tuning to a
respective channel. Other applications will be launched manually.
If you tune to a channel on which interactive applications are broadcast,
you will see the
[ mhp ]
icon on the
Channel Banner
. This icon is
displayed alternately with the
[ OK ]
icon prompting you to press the
OK
key. Pressing
OK
brings up the
Applications
window allowing you
to select the application you want to run. Once you select the
application, press
OK
again. However, if you are not interested in
running interactive applications, press
EXIT
to remove the
Applications
window from the screen.
To quit the interactive application, press and hold the
EXIT
key for at
least 2 seconds. You can also quit the application by following the on-
screen descriptions brought to you by the application itself or tuning to a
different channel by pressing
P+

Please note that if you do not want any interactive applications to be run
automatically, set the

6.9 Reminders and Timers
6.9.1 Difference Between Reminder and Timer
The aim of the reminder/timer is to remind you that the program you
scheduled for viewing is about to start. The main difference between a
reminder and a timer is that you set reminders from the
Channel
Banner
. To set a reminder, select one of the future programs in the
Channel Banner
and press
OK
. Then you are prompted to decide
whether you want to set a viewing or a recording reminder.
Setting a Reminder
Timers are independent from the broadcast schedule. You will set timers
from the
Timer Manager
. To get access to the
Timer Manager
, select
the
Timer Manager
item from the
Main Menu
.
Timer Manager
contains all timers and reminders defined so far. It allows you not only to
set timers but also to delete or modify selected timers/reminders. You
will be asked to enter
Timer Manager
each time any conflicts between
reminders/timers occur. You will find more information on
Timer
Manager
later in this manual.
