Chapter 4 54 Pick Programs to Record Find Programs That Match Your Interests Try a WishList™ Search! If you know what you like, WishList searches are great! A WishList search automatically finds programs that match your interests, tastes, passions, and whims on any channel you receive. And it keeps on searching for as long as you keep the WishList. For example, you could create a Category Only WishList for the category "Movies" and subcategory "Action/Adventure." You could then use it occasionally to look at a list of all action/adventure movies airing in the next two weeks. The list would be constantly updated by program guide data. You could search for something more specific by creating an Actor WishList for Elizabeth Myer, and then include the category "Movies," and subcategory "Romance." This WishList would only find romance movies with Elizabeth Myer. With a Keyword WishList, you can look for something very specific. For example, the Keyword WishList "LIGHTNING" with category "Football" would find Lightning football (but not baseball) games for you. Here's another example: You could create a Keyword WishList to find a 1986 remake of a movie called The Fright, starring Chris Fields. The keyword entry would look like this: "CHRIS FIELDS" FRIGHT. Not only does this WishList search find a specific program-it finds the specific version! (You could also find this movie by making a Keyword WishList for the movie's title and year. In that case, the keyword entry might look like this: "THE FRIGHT" 1986.) DIRECTV Central Pick Programs to Record Search Using a WishList

Find Programs That Match Your Interests
Try a WishList™ Search!
If you know what you like, WishList searches are great! A WishList search automatically
finds programs that match your interests, tastes, passions, and whims on any channel you
receive. And it keeps on searching for as long as you keep the WishList.
For example, you could create a Category Only WishList for the category “Movies” and
subcategory “Action/Adventure.” You could then use it occasionally to look at a list of all
action/adventure movies airing in the next two weeks. The list would be constantly
updated by program guide data.
You could search for something more specific by creating an Actor WishList for Elizabeth
Myer, and then include the category “Movies,” and subcategory “Romance.” This
WishList would only find romance movies with Elizabeth Myer.
With a Keyword WishList, you can look for something very specific. For example, the
Keyword WishList
“LIGHTNING”
with category “Football” would find Lightning
football (but not baseball) games for you.
Here’s another example: You could create a Keyword WishList to find a 1986 remake of a
movie called
The Fright
, starring Chris Fields. The keyword entry would look like this:
“CHRIS FIELDS” FRIGHT.
Not only does this WishList search find a specific
program—it finds the specific version! (You could also find this movie by making a
Keyword WishList for the movie’s title and year. In that case, the keyword entry might
look like this:
“THE FRIGHT” 1986.
