Use the microphone on a remote
Find a program by saying its name instead of spelling it out.
Some remotes have a microphone button. Hold it, say the name of a program, and the television searches for it.
It listens only while the button is held, and saves picking letters one at a time.
Key points
- A microphone button on a remote searches by voice
- It listens only while you hold the button
What to remember
- Hold the button, speak, let go.
- The microphone is a search box you speak into.
