View Full Version : No 12hr jump when using channel info feature?

I like to use the channel info feature to cruise a particular channel and mark things I may enjoy to watch and sometimes I use it to record shows when I see previews, but there is no 12 hour jump, why not?

Why can't it be like the 12hr jump when in the normal guide? And it takes up way too much real estate, only shows 5 up coming shows, so you have to scroll all day sometimes.

This could be vastly improved.

That would be nice actually.

You can use channel up/channel down to do a whole "page". On a movie channel like HBO about 2 channel downs will get you 12 hours or so. Not so much on a channel with a lot of half hour shows. But it's better then scrolling with just the down arrow one program at a time.

ahhh I forgot about the page up and down feature of this, but it still takes forever to get where you are going. They need to add the 12 hour feature into this.

Great idea. Maybe it is already on the wishlist. I'd like to add that if you are going to add the +/- 12 hour functionality, why not also add the jump to date/time functionality as well like we have in the regular guide?

You can always use the +/- in the regular guide.;)
