If
you want to watch a TV programme that's on later, Sky Guide can remind you when it's about to
start.
Set reminders
- When you see a listed TV programme you want to watch, highlight it and press
select.
- In the Now, Next and Later banner, a reminder symbol appears next to the programme title.
- From full-screen listings such as the TV Guide, your Planner appears, showing your entire list
of selected programmes.
If you see a promotional advert for a future programme and the green set reminder option, you
can set up a reminder for that programme or series:
- Press the
green button before the advert ends and follow the instructions on your TV
screen.
- One minute before the programme starts, the reminder message appears.
- Press
select to tune to that programme.
- Press
record to start recording the programme.
- Press
back up to carry on with what you were watching.
When reminders clash
If you try to set a reminder for a programme and it clashes with a previous one, Sky Guide asks
you what you want to do.
- Press
select to be reminded about both programmes.
- Press
back up to cancel the latest selection.
If you are using a Sky digibox or Sky+ box you will see the older style Sky Guide, and can use
the 'Search & Scan' banner to see what's on now and later, change channels, set reminders and
record programmes, without interrupting what you are watching.
