How do I find channels quickly without scrolling

through the whole channel list?

Also why are Sky channels listed differently in

tv guide magazines than the channel list shown on the tv screen?

@xxxyy1 TV Guides tend to list satellite channels not SKy Stream channels.

You can add channels to your favourites or tyoe in the 3 digit channel number such as 101 = BBC 1

Filter through Channel Type or use the Volume Up and Down button to jump Pages of Channels...

If you have not done so already.

Say help into your voice remote or scroll down to the rail that shows 'Settings/Search/MySky/Help' and select help.

Watch the help videos or have a read of the many help articles there on how to use Sky Stream, voice help, remote help, MySky etc.

I cant use the volume buttons for channel channing - if I do, my volume goes up or down. I need to use the 'outer ring' on the remote to jump pages of channels.

@Skull+Treaty you can page through while on the EPG. If you're on a channel, it reverts to a volume up and down control.

As @Skull+Treaty mentions.
With the Sky Stream/Glass remote, the volume controls are for volume up/down only.

Navigating channels is done with up/down within the select button

FYI. What's On TV have the channel numbers beside each channel for "Freeview HD, Freesat HD, Freely, Sky, Sky Stream, Virgin and EE."

@lettice ahhh my bad.. Somehow I'd got in my head you could flick through pages using that button but probably confused it with the in-laws Sky Q 🤣
