Use the Themes and Search Feature to find exactly what you want to watch. This section 
shows you how to use Themes to find your favorite programs by type (for example, 
movies, sports, news), or by keyword (if you’re looking for a particular actor or 
description).
You can list programs by the theme of their contents, (for example, just movies or just 
sports). Use Themes and Search to quickly find programs based on: 
Theme. You can look for something to watch by the program’s theme (Movies, News, 
Sports, etc.), which makes your search easier and your television viewing more  
enjoyable.
Sub-theme. This selection helps you narrow the type of program. The Sub-Theme 
feature is different for each Theme category.
Keyword. Use this selection if you want to be more specific (for example, actor or 
description). You can search for something to watch just by Keyword. This feature 
also categorizes programs on over-the-air channels (if an over-the-air antenna is 
connected to the receiver as described on page 117). You can search for events two 
ways:
Select Title to search for the words that appear in the title of a program.
Select Info to search for words that are in the program description or title.
Enter the Keyword(s) in the Search Criteria Field in one of two ways:
Use the virtual keyboard.
Use the letters on the NUMBER PAD.
Note: See page 23 for information on using these features.
