search for shows

does anyone know how to jump ahead to a certain time and date when searching for a specific show. I just switched from directv after 8 years and i find that this system is soo hard navigate and the remote is difficult to figure out and get use to compared to them. I'm kind of sorrry I switched.  i have the URC-8820-MOTO remote if  that matters

Hi Bored,

I'm sorry that you've had trouble with the transition to Cox! You can jump ahead in the Guide several ways. Let's say I'm checking the Guide to make sure Hawaii Five-O is going to be on tomorrow night at 9pm on (my channel) 3. Here are my steps:

  1. Press the Guide button.
  2. Punch in 03 so the Guide shows the channel 3 schedule/listings.
  3. Press the FFwd button on the remote to skip (1) day ahead.
  4. Press the right arrow key (next to the Select button) to scroll to the 9pm time-slot.

Here are two documents that might provide more info and teach you other cool functions of your Cox remote and digital cable box:

Also, be sure to check out our library of support documents at http://ww2.cox.com/residential/support.cox. Please let me know if this answers your question or if you have any others!

If you are viewing the Guide, there is an option to hit the "B" button and choose date and time.
