The new Samsung Smart Hub consists of five unique panels
each offering loads of smart features and content.
The On TV panel helps you find your favorite shows
that are currently playing. And see what's coming up
without interrupting your current program.
To begin using On TV, with your Smart TV set up
and connected to the Internet
press the Smart Hub button on the Smart Touch Control.
When Smart Hub opens, the On TV panel should open by default.
If the On TV panel does not appear in Smart Hub
you can quickly set up this panel through the TV menu.
The On Now box continues to show the current channel
you are watching, to avoid interrupting your TV programming.
To the right of On Now is the Recommended section.
Here you can see several recommended TV shows
and videos that are currently playing.
Your Smart TV will begin to recommend programs
based on your viewing history.
If you would like to watch one of the recommended programs
simply highlight and select the program
and your Smart TV will change to the proper channel.
A yellow line below the recommended titles
shows approximately how much time is remaining in the program.
The titles on the bottom of the screen are more
recommended programs that are about to air, or are coming up.
You can see how much time remains until the program begins.
If you select one of the "coming up" titles
you can read more about the program, tune to the channel it will play on
or schedule a viewing reminder for later.
At the bottom of the On TV panel there are two options:
the Guide menu, and Timeline View.
If you select Guide, you will be able to view
all of the available TV programming.
To navigate, simply scroll up or down the pages
using the touchpad on your Smart Touch Control.
Or, to jump by pages, press the More button
and scroll over the red letter "A" button to open Quick Nav.
Now if you scroll up or down on the touchpad
the Guide will jump an entire page of programming for faster navigation.
If you see a program you want to change to
press the touchpad to exit Quick Navigation
and then highlight and select a program
to change the channel to that station.
Press the Return button to return to the On TV home screen.
Now choose Timeline View.
Timeline View is another guide menu.
But you can see your recommended titles in vertical order
according to the hour that they are playing.
To watch or schedule to view a program, simply select it.
Press the Return button to return to the On TV home screen.
The On TV panel gives you quick access to your favorite TV programs
without interrupting your television viewing.
along with the On TV panel, you can use S Recommendation
to do a voice search for TV shows or movies.
To use S Recommendation, you must use your Smart Touch Control.
Press the Voice button, and once the Voice Control menu opens
speak into the microphone on top of the Smart Touch Control.
You can search for programming using natural language such as
"Show me action movies".
The Smart TV will quickly search for programs and offer options from 1 to 6.
To select an option, you can use the touchpad.
Or simply press the Voice button once more, and say
"first", "second", and so on.
Or say, "Next page," to see more options.
The On TV panel and S Recommendation is the ultimate TV experience
for your Samsung Smart TV.
