Would you like to know what the TV schedule
i
s for today and even for the whole week? This
way, you can be sure you won't miss any of
your favourite shows by planning your
evenings or making pre-scheduled recordings.
The EPG information is part of the broadcast
data and, when avai lable, this rec eiver c ompiles
the programming details for the upcoming 7
days and lists it in an easy-to-read format for
your reference. The EPG can be accessed via
the menu, or by simply pressing the EPG
button on the remote control.
Euphoria User Interface
Easy navigation through the menu structure.
Automatic install and update
With the launch of digital terrestrial TV,
addition
al broadcast channels are made
available. Also, the channel numbering can
often be temporarily reshuffled during digital
switchover. To ensure that you always have
the access to all available channels, it is
important that the product is able to scan and
install new channels automatically. A very
sensitive tuner in this product scans through
the broadcasting network for new channels
whenever the product is switched off.
Whenever a new service is detected, it will be
automatically updated and saved onto the
channel list.
Parental lock
Do you want to limit access to certain
p
rogrammes or channels to protect your
children from objectionable content? This
receiver allows you to automatically block
access to specified channels or programmes
either according to maturity ratings or your
own preferences. This content can only be
viewed after entering the PIN code.
