CHANGING THE CHANNEL

You can change the channel from the TV Home screen, or while you’re watching
TV at full-screen size.

To change the channel:

Use the

CH-/CH+

buttons on your remote control or keyboard to move

up or down one channel at a time, or use the number buttons to type a
channel number.

When you change the channel while watching at full-screen size, a channel
banner briefly appears at the bottom of the screen, displaying the following:

• Program name

• Broadcast time

• Current time

• Channel number, network name, and call letters

• Rating, if a rated movie or TV program is showing

Symbols may appear as well: a postmark indicates that you have unread
messages in TV Notices, and a lock indicates that you’ve configured the lock
settings (described later in this section).
