USING YOUR GUIDE MENU

Your interactive programming guide is your home base for all of the content available within your BroadStar IPTV package. Search past, current, and future programming airing across all of your HD digital TV channels.

Accessing this menu during viewing is as easy as pressing the “Guide” button on your remote. For Amazon Fire TV device users, this will be your “3 Lines” button. The Main App Navigation can be accessed by pressing “Back” on your remote until it appears at the top of your screen.

Navigate “DOWN” and “UP” to view programming within a time-slot, “LEFT” until your channel logos move to the right of the screen for past programming, and “RIGHT” to view content airing in the future. Current and future programming will always show your channel logos on the left of your guide screen.

SELECTING YOUR PROGRAMMING

Pressing the “SELECT” button on any live programming will bring you to that program’s Watch Menu. From this menu you can choose what you would like to do with your chosen program. “Watch”, “Restart”, “Record”, and “Favorite” are all options available for every program within this menu.
