Watching

What each screen does.

  1. Step 1 of 5 The live channel. Magpie opens on TV: a channel playing from wherever its schedule is. Type a channel number over it and the picture changes - the signal banner tells you where you landed. A profile with no channels opens on On Demand instead.

  2. Step 2 of 5 The guide. Your channels laid out like cable - what is on now and what is next. Choose a channel and it plays live from wherever the schedule is.

  3. Step 3 of 5 On Demand. Your own library as shelves: continue watching, favorites, what was added lately. Pick anything to see its page.

  4. Step 4 of 5 A title's page. Everything about a movie or an episode in one place - play it, start it over, or queue it for later.

  5. Step 5 of 5 The companion, while something plays: what is on now, the transport, and more like this, beside the picture.
