What is an electronic program guide (EPG)?
An electronic program guide (EPG) is an on-screen listing of television programs, similar to the TV listings in your local newspaper.
Digital television technology allows local broadcasters to transmit program-guide information to your digital TV (or set-top converter box) along with regular programming content. Digital TV brings electronic program guides—already familiar to many satellite and cable viewers—to households that rely on over-the-air broadcasts.
