Advanced ON-Screen Program Guides                        

  • Surf Guide
    The Surf Guide brings up seven channels of programs at a time. Surf up and down the guide, viewing the current 30-minute or one-hour time window of programming. You'll never miss out on any of the action of your current show, because it stays active in the background while you explore other channels.
  • SmlGuide.GIF (25442 bytes)
  • Information Guide
    Lists five different channels of programming at a glance. Details on the current highlighted program are displayed in a banner at the top of the screen. Program information changes automatically as the consumer navigates through the guide and highlights different programs.
  • Guide.GIF (25828 bytes)
  • Full Seven-Line Program Guide
    Provides channel and program title information for seven different channels covering a two-hour time window. Arrows help indicate programs that started before or ending after the current time shown on the grid.

    Interactive Channel Banner
    The new translucent, see-through Interactive Channel Banner makes access to the key features of the new DSS System fast and easy. We've taken the most exciting new features, created icons for each of them, and positioned them in the banner for direct access. Banner.GIF (21846 bytes)
