The NEXTVIEW offers 4 modes to sort
and represent information
Day
The day guide provides an overview of all programme titles active in the
selected time block. Time blocks are 15 minute intervals starting from the
current time of the current day until 03.00 hours of tomorrow.
The default order is based on the programme list of the favourite TV channels
as stored in the installation of the TV. TV channels not marked as favourite TV
channels will not appear. The currently watched programme is selected and
displayed at the top of the list.
Default NEXTVIEW opens with the DAY screen.
If None has been selected as NEXTVIEW provider in the Setup menu, the day
screen will be absent.
Channel
The channel guide provides an overview of all programmes per selected TV
channel on the selected date.
The list will start with the earliest broadcasted programme.
Theme
The theme guide displays a list of all programmes at the selected date, that
matches with the selected category (news, sport, culture, movies...).
The default starting item will be the current or next programme on the current
TV channel.
When more than one programme starts at the same time, they are displayed
according to the programme number.
When another date is selected the list of programmes displayed will start with
the earliest programme.
The THEME selection possibility is only present if programmes in the TV guide,
have defined themes.
Overview
The Overview list provides a list of all reminders and recordings per day. The
first item displayed will be the one closest in time.
When more than one of the same items start at the same time or have an
overlap in time these will be marked by a flashing highlight and a message.
After the programme has been broadcast, all items set for once will be deleted
from the list.

Basic functions
The function Watch is only available if a currently broadcasted programme is
selected. Otherwise the function is not available.
The selection causes the TV to tune to the selected channel and NEXTVIEW is
switched off.
When Info is activated, information relating to the selected programme or
advertisements are displayed.
When Record Ror Remind !are activated the screen turns to Record or
Remind mode. This is indicated by a tag-box appearing after the selected
programme. The default interval is set to Once. The colour of the tag refers
to the interval.
After setting the interval the message Storing appears to indicate the tuner of
the video recorder is programmed.
When watching a certain programme, a message will appear on the screen the
moment the tagged programme with !starts.
When the TV is in standby, the TV switches on the moment the tagged
programme with !starts.
In case where a series tag is broadcast the options daily and weekly can be
replaced by the option series. In this case the system identifies when the next
episode of the series will be broadcast.
Acquisition and updating of NEXTVIEW information for the selected provider, if
any, is done when the TV is switched to standby after watching the TV.
The TV enters a semi standby mode, the indicator remains green and switches
to full standby automatically after all needed acquisition or updating is
complete, the indicater then turns red. As long as the TV remains in standby,
acquisition will again happen during the night.
Acquisition is however only done if the start of the previous period of semi
standby is 12 or more hours in the past. So, the information acquisition for the
selected provider is done as a maximum twice a day.
Acquisition for non selected providers (selection None in the Setup menu) is
only done while watching the TV channel and when NEXTVIEW is not active.
Note: it may be necessary to put the TV into standby mode when all NEXTVIEW
information is outdated, e.g. returning from holiday. In this case a message is
displayed.

The Record item and the automatic recording will only be present and
possible if your video recorder is equipped with NEXTVIEWLink.
The daily, weekly or series options, the number of recordings set and the way
overlapping recordings are managed, depend on the type of video recorder
type you have. The moment all video recorder timers are used, the item
Record in the menu will be removed.
Upload video recorder overview.
When the TV is switched on, the programmed record blocks are uploaded to
the TV to check whether any manual addition or deletions have been done.
This is shown in the overview.
The video recorder manages and removes timer recordings when performed.
Some NEXTVIEWLink video recorders do not allow a daily programming of
recording to start on a Saturday or Sunday. In this case the item daily will be
removed from the menu on those days.
