Question V+ Programme Search

Is there any facility on the V+ Box that allows a search for programmes in the TV Guide, without having to scroll all the way through all days and channels to see when or if the specific programme is on?

Re: V+ Programme Search

I use the Radio Times website (www.radiotimes.com). You can select which channels are displayed and do searches.

Thank you, I will try that. I suppose it still means scrolling through the days through, which can be time consuming. It would be great if Virgin could come up with a facility that provides a list of Search Results, eh?

By the way, does the Radio Times website have all the same features as the magazine?... If so, how do they sell any copies?...

I had a look at that, but it is not always obvious which Category to choose and even then it does not provide clear results.

Re: V+ Programme Search

Id also like this feature in the V+

Definetly a must, if you ask me.

Even if they add the A-Z lsiting like Sky, but you move across to the letter of your choice. It would also go well with the whole layout of OnDemand and the TVGuide itself.
