4. EPG (Electronic Program Guide)

The EPG (Electronic Program Guide) is a table which displays current

and upcoming TV programs. The FV-L1 stores up to 7 days of EPG

data. The data can be provided in one of the following ways;

Transmitted by the TV service broadcasters.

Supplied by IceTV subscription service (requires internet connection –

see “Ice Guide” section in Chapter 4).

The data can be presented in two different styles, showing multiple

services or showing a single service. To display the EPG, press the

GUIDE button. The service you are currently viewing will continue to

be shown in a small window in the top right corner of the screen. Press

the

RED button to swap between the two EPG styles. To hide the EPG,

press the

GUIDE button again, or press EXIT.

NOTE

The EPG always opens in the style you last used, with the current

time or current program showing as the first entry.

If you are currently viewing a service using the favorite group

function, the EPG will only show the services contained in the current

favorite group, and in the order you selected when you set it up (see

“Favorite Group” section earlier in this chapter).

When using the EPG data transmitted by the TV service broadcasters,

the FV-L1 cannot provide a full 7-day EPG if some broadcasters do

not provide this information.

4-1. EPG with Multiple Services

This EPG shows multiple services simultaneously in a timeline format.

Services are listed vertically in the left column, and their corresponding

programs appear in the same row underneath the appropriate time

columns. Each program title is contained in a cell, and the position and

width of each cell indicates the program’s scheduled broadcast time and

duration. The program you are currently viewing is shaded in medium

blue, and programs currently broadcasting on other services are shaded

in light blue. The upper left section of the screen displays detailed

information for each program, including scheduled start and finish times

and program synopsis.
