A testimony on how BTV is easy to use

This past summer, something remarkable happenned. My daughter has learned with little instruction how to
1) search for a program title,
2) select the program and
3) pick an episode to record.
She likes to pick and choose which episode she wants recorded. She does that by reading the episode descriptions. And, of course, she knows how to start BTV and watch the program as well as resume and stop it. What's remarkable about this is that she is only 6 years old and the program is called Cyberchase! I think it is a testimoninal on how easy the BTV software is to use.

Yes, she uses the Firefly remote control. And she has no complaints about video quality!

Snapstream did not pay me to write this.

Simply easy and good. I just had to share this with someone.
(p.s. her twin brother is also working the remote and BTV as well)

6? Sounds like a candidate for "Youngest BTV User" if you ask me.

Or can that be beaten?

My 4.5 year-old son can't search for shows by name, but he knows how to choose recorded shows, scroll to teen titans, and pick a show at random to play.

We also use the firefly.

Very nice!

Bottom line is that BTV is easy to use so no one above 18 yrs old should complain.

Re: A testimony on how BTV is easy to use

My 2 year dog hit the play button by accident when he tried to give me a high-5 near the coffee table. Does that count?
