For Pete’s Sake, All I Want To Do Is Change the Channel!!

This week's topic: How the heck do I change networksto play insert desired game here (cards/trivia/sports)instead ofinsert unwanted game here (cards/trivia/sports), which is currently playing?

We've received quite a few e-mails from players asking why they aren't able to play certain games within their location because other Buzztime offerings are showing. The easy answer is, we have three networks, but locations can only run two at a time. So, the logical assumption would be that you simply "change the channel"... but how? Well, it's not as easy as picking up the remote, but it can be done very quickly... just in time to play that game you came in for!

Before you get started, you need to find someone at the location, be it a manager or staff member, and ask that the network be changed.Once you've got your accomplice (said staff member) walk them through the following stepsfor Buzztime"channel-changing":

1. Grab a Playmaker game controller.
2. Select “Member Log In” to log into your account or “Play as Guest” if you do not want to log in.
3. Scroll down to “Manager Functions” on the Playmaker screen. (Press “enter”).
4. You will need to end the game that is playing on the network you are currently on in order to change the channel. Find the game you would like to end on the Playmaker screen and choose “End [game]”. (Press “enter”)
5. Choose “On-Screen Manager Functions” from the Playmaker screen options. (Press “enter”)
6. The On-Screen Menu will appear on your TV monitor.
7. Choose “Select Network” from the on-screen menu (using the Playmaker controls to make your selection.) (Press “enter”).
   NOTE** The networks that are currently running will appear in gray and cannot be selected again.
8. Choose the network you wish to change to (Press “enter”).
