With Media Center, you can use “triple‐tap” on your remote control to enter letters using the number buttons, for example when searching for a TV or music title. Amulet allows you spell out words by voice, which is often a more convenient way to enter text.

Use the Type In command to enter a few letters immediately. Alternatively, use Start Typing to switch into typing mode, and you can then speak letters for as long as you wish, until you say Stop Typing.

Browse To is an alternative form of Type In that is convenient when viewing screens with long lists, where typing the first few letters of an entry’s name jumps to that entry in the list.

Typing Mode

START TYPING … {LETTERS} … STOP TYPING

TYPE IN {LETTERS}
BROWSE TO {LETTERS}

Use the commands to “type” individual letters or numbers on the keyboard. Recognized letter names are shown in the table below. You can speak most letters by just saying the name of the letter. If you have difficulty with some letters, you can also use the phonetic alphabet (e.g. Alpha for ‘A’, Bravo for ‘B’).

EXAMPLES
TYPE IN H‐O‐U‐S‐E
BROWSE TO M‐A‐D
TYPE IN TANGO OSCAR NOVEMBER YANKEE
