WishList for the movie’s title and year. In that case, the keyword entry might look like 
this: “THE FRIGHT” 1986.) 

After you make a WishList, you can periodically view what it finds by selecting “View all 
upcoming WishList programs,” or selecting an individual WishList, then selecting “View 
upcoming programs.” Then you can schedule recordings for the programs or episodes you 
want. (See page 78 for more details.)

You can set a WishList to auto-record, and it will record every program the WishList 
finds. For example, with the Elizabeth Myer Actor WishList, you would automatically 
collect Elizabeth Myer romance movies in the Now Playing List. 

Some WishList searches are better suited to browsing than to auto-recording. For 
example, you could create a Category Only WishList for the category “Documentary.” 
This WishList would find every upcoming documentary. You could then occasionally 
browse the WishList and choose the upcoming documentaries you want to record. 

The more specific a WishList is, the better suited it is to auto-recording. For example, an 
auto-recording Keyword WishList with the keywords SNICKS and RABBITS, and 
category “Sports/Basketball” would only record basketball games with both of these 
teams—a great way to ensure that you enjoy this season’s rivalry. (For more on auto-
recording a WishList, see page 78.)
