      Accessing Categories

      I am sure this must be known but I just stumbled on it by accident and the search got a bit confusing!

      The Categories in the Guide and Planner are all numbered i.e 1 All Channels 2. HD 3 Entertainment....10 Music...17 Favourites etc

      This might be meaningless but for those with Harmony RC or others that allow Macros or even those who just want to save a few keystrokes, this could take you to your preferred category in one hit.

      Cheers

      Alan

      This would be true of all the menus within Sky's EPG.

      Using the remote to type a number from 1 through 9 will get the option. For number 10+ you need to press 1 and the 2nd digit quickly. If you have a remote that has the ability to store macros, then you could store say '<TV Guide> 1 7' on it to go straight to the Favourites list.
