MYTVOnline 3/4 Watchlist uses supplied future EPG events. Add the intended event from the guide, then check its schedule and the dynamic Watchlist group when it is on air. A Watchlist entry is different from a completed local recording or an unconditional replay entitlement.
Check the event before marking it
Identify the exact channel, programme title, date and local start time. Choose an event the provider’s guide actually supplies. Without EPG data, Formuler says this Watchlist function cannot be set. An empty schedule field should therefore lead to a guide check rather than repeated remote presses.
Record the installed MYTVOnline edition and keep the current viewing task undisturbed. A programme with the same title can appear on several channels or dates. Check the exact event before adding it.
Create and inspect the appointment
Use the documented guide action on the actual compatible remote.
- Open the grid EPG with Guide/EPG.
- Move to the intended future programme.
- Press OK and choose Add to Watchlist.
- Inspect the appropriate schedule view: MYTVOnline 3 Menu > Schedule > Watchlist, or MYTVOnline 4 Menu > More > Schedule.
- When the event is on air, check the dynamic Watchlist category and select the intended channel.
Recognise a time-dependent group
Formuler describes a dynamic group containing channels currently playing the flagged events, with an approaching-event notification. A future event saved in Schedule need not be in the on-air group yet. Keep appointment state and current category contents as separate observations.
If a saved programme airs tomorrow, confirm it in Schedule today. Check the dynamic category at its supplied airtime.
| Observation | Next action |
|---|---|
| Future programme appears in Schedule | Keep the appointment and check at airtime. |
| Future event exists but has no appointment | Open its guide action and add it once. |
| The guide has no event | Check the programme’s EPG data. |
| The programme already ended | Check the available replay or recording separately. |
Remove or investigate the correct item
To remove an appointment, select the event and use Remove from Watchlist as offered. Verify the date and channel first so a repeated broadcast is not removed accidentally. Keep another household member’s appointment unless the change is intended.
For a wrong time, check the supplied guide and receiver clock. For later viewing, Formuler shows a Start Timeshift action in a Watchlist Schedule Manager example. Verify whether the current edition, event and source offer it. Check the provider’s available replay or a separate recording when that action is unavailable.
