Line 1: [[Image:Sky_EPG.jpg\|frame\|right\|The Sky Digital EPG in the UK.]]An '''electronic program''' (or '''programme''') '''guide''' ('''EPG''') or also an '''ínteractive program(me) guide''' or ('''IPG''') is a on-screen guide to scheduled broadcast television programs, allowing a viewer to navigate, select and discover content by time, title, channel, genre, etc, using their remote control. The technology is based upon [[broadcasting\|broadcasting]] data to an application usually residing within [[middleware]] in a [[set-top box]] which connects to the television set and enables the application to be displayed. The technology is predominant in the [[digital television]] and [[digital radio\|radio]] world, but equally EPGs exist that rely upon analogue technology (using the VBI - or [[vertical blanking interval]]). These signals may arrive via [[cable TV]], [[satellite TV]], [[cable radio]], [[satellite radio]], or via over-the-air terrestrial [[broadcast station]]s.
