I'm new to the HR20 and when I do a keyword search on "FOOTBALL", I get results of every show about football except actual football games. What am I missing? What search do I need to make to get actual football games in the results?

Thanks.

it all depends on how the game is listed in the guide... try using a team name in the search... exapmple... sunday @ 12:00 central on cbs is the "Colts @ Titans"... search the title "Colts" and you will see what i mean...

Thanks. I tried a keyword search on "SAINTS" "SPORTS" and "FOOTBALL" and the game was in the results.

What I'm trying to get is all football games in the guide so I can set up recordings of any games that I want without knowing who is playing. I hate to make comparisons, but on my HR10-250 a keyword search on football will include actual football games.

Thanks again,

I'm not sure if there is a way to just get all of the games to show up.. maybe someone else can chime in and help us..

If you're going to seach by a team name... try a title search.. it's a little easier than a keyword search..

no problem.. glad to help and welcome to the forum!

I hit guide, then menu, and category sort. Under sports, select football, and it gives me all the games coming up, sorted by upcoming start time.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! That did the trick.

Is there any way to have the category sort only see the channels that I actually receive or to do a category sort from just my "Custom 1" favorites?

Again, thanks for the solution.
