By tuning into an EPG channel, a menu is displayed that lists current and upcoming television programs on all available channels.A more modern form of the EPG, associated with both television and radio broadcasting, is the interactive [electronic] program guide (IPG, though often referred to as EPG).

When your receiver starts up, it will get some data from any satellite it can find but if there's a Slimline-5 dish installed it will want to get that guide data from a satellite that's located quite a bit off axis from where you think your dish is pointed.

You can create up to five customized Favourites or use pre-set lists, such as Movies, HD or Sports.

Favourites video Press "Guide" on your Shaw Remote to access the full screen view.

You can adjust the transparency of this guide in your Settings so you can browse the TV listings while viewing your current show in the background. No DJs, no commercials, just continuous music, allowing you to see who is playing, song titles and more.

Electronic program guides (EPGs) and interactive program guides (IPGs) are menu-based systems that provide users of television, radio and other media applications with continuously updated menus displaying broadcast programming or scheduling information for current and upcoming programming.
