To access the Program Guide in the ViewScape Interface, select the "SnapStream.Net Program Guide" option from the Home menu. The following screen will appear:


The Program Guide enables users to browse a list of shows that are airing, or are scheduled to be aired. Navigate the program guide by using the arrow keys on the keyboard, the directional buttons on the remote control, or with the mouse by using the directional arrows located on the control element pictured below:
