This Quick Guide will help you find your way around the main features of your DStv Explora and get
you viewing in no time.
Five important things you need to know when using your new DStv Explora :
The DStv Explora has ONE central menu with all content and settings. Press the DStv
button to go straight to DStv Central. (See the DStv Explora Map for more info)
When looking for something to watch, use the hotlink buttons on your remote to go directly
to BoxOffice, DStv Catch Up, your Playlist, the TV Guide or Search.
With all the great content available, BoxOffice, DStv Catch Up and your Playlist have
folders allowing you to easily find what you’re looking for. The Planner also has folders, so
you can see all schedules or limit your view to just the reminders or one of the other options.
There’s also series stacking, which groups episodes in a season together (available in both
your Playlist and DStv Catch Up).
Press OK on any programme name to see the list of available actions. These range
from being able to schedule recordings, set reminders and even getting a list of when a
programme will be aired again over the next 8 days.
To change viewing options (like language and aspect ratio), press OPTIONS. Pressing this
same button when viewing a list, lets you change the sort order or how the information is
displayed.
