Re: [ TV] Rogers VCR Commander
said by Leathal  :One of the other things that ticks me off with the Roger box is I can't search for shows by name like you can in the BEV gear, I hate scrolling through hundreds of channels to find what I want to watch.  You can, its just not very good. You click the yellow "A" button while in the guide, and you can search by title, theme or channel.

| I still remember the first cable box I had in Scarborough. Not sure if it came from Graham, or Scarborough Cable.. I know it was NOT Rogers.
When you browsed, it showed you one occurrence of a show. When you selected it, it then showed the episodes, and finally when selecting an episode, showed the times and channel info. Far FAR nicer than what we have now. |

Rogers has nothing like this HiVolt. Plus you can not create favourite lists of your programs and view by them only on Rogers, not to mention only view the channels that you have paid for as suppose to all the channels which is confusing as they don't label them being non-paid channels its only when you select it you find out if you are paying for it or not.
Rogers hardware is made by scientists live white rooms all their life and never get out which is why the software is in their receivers is too complicated and not stupid simple enough that your dad who probably has hard time programming the VCR could never learn to adapt and use fully.
Bell on the other hand has a much bigger market since Dish also uses the same products they do, so it's been tested and researched to the hilt, that's why it's very easy to navigate through the menus.
