    Hi

    I am testing M$ Vista Beta 2 and I have to say I like the way you can go through the EPG in fullscreen TV with only using the Cursor keys of the remote and if you want to switch the channel you can confirm it with the OK button.
    So if you push any Cursor button in this MCE at the lower screen a little EPG window opens with now&next and now with the Up&Down keys you can switch the channel and with left&right you can look what's next and will be later.
    I miss this function in MP

    I second this request (again)! This has come up many times before in the forums. It's how the Sky STB works in the UK and it's very intuitive. It's essentially the Zap-OSD we have now but without changing to the channel displayed unless you hit OK/Enter.

    I do not want a mini EPG with multiple channels in one view. I want only one little window with what is running and the ability to go through channels and time. Also a short description of the title should be part of the window.

    For me the MiniEPG is perfect for this task :)

    But that's only IMHO, pushing two keys to zap is too much work :)
