NEXTVIEW/ Teletext Programme Guide
Today, most broadcasters in Europe, are offering teletext pages containing
their programme schedule of today. These pages can be requested by switching
the TV to Teletext Programme Guide.
An increasing number of broadcasters are offering an extended programme
guide service called NEXTVIEW. NEXTVIEW is a new way of presenting
programme schedules and offers more features than common teletext.
With NEXTVIEW it is possible to show for instance all the movies coming
tonight.
Both facilities are integrated in this TV: NEXTVIEW and Teletext Programme
Guide. If a TV channel supports NEXTVIEW then the TV will automatically
present the NEXTVIEW programme schedule. If the TV channel supports just
teletext, then the TV will switch automatically to Teletext Programme Guide.
Both facilities are offering the same functions: record, remind and info.
However in case of Teletext Programme Guide the broadcaster is responsible
if these functions are possible.
You can search for the programmes you want to watch 24 hours per day. It is
also possible to search for a programme by theme, e.g. sport, movie, etc.
Once a programme has been selected it can be tagged, to remind you, or to
record on the video recorder automatically (provided the video recorder is
equipped withNEXTVIEWLink), once, daily, weekly or series.
Teletext Programme Guide / NEXTVIEW also allows direct access to detailedBNEXTVIEW

information about programmes if provided by the broadcaster.
