What is an EPG (Electronic Program Guide)?
An EPG is the electronic version of a printed program guide. Using your remote control you will be able to see on-screen whats on now and whats on next for all free-to-air services. Some networks are also working towards Extended EPG that would allow program searches 7 days in advance, or more. The quality and accuracy of EPG is driven directly by the individual networks. You can also search for a particular program by theme or category, eg sporting programs, movies etc. Extra text and picture information (eg story line, episode description etc) can be called up as well. The EPG is updated directly by the networks and available at the click of a remote control button. EPG services are being implemented across all free-to-air television channels.
