Search
Search capabilities allow you to either search for a full title
of a program or for a word or two within a title. You can use
the Search feature in the guide to find all instances of a
program by title, or you can use the Search feature to enter
a partial name and search for all instances of the word to
locate the desired program. This works well if you can’t
recall the full name of a program or movie. All of the search
functions will give you search results from On-Demand
library, TV Airings, and Recordings.
