A voice controlled guide search is certainly a welcome breakthrough. Finding popular titles on DIRECTV (such as “Game of Thrones”) isn’t the most complicated search you can execute, as there are promotional graphics for the show all over the channel guide. But finding lesser-known shows or movies can be a real drag, especially within that long-winded Video On Demand guide (DIRECTV subscribers, you know what we’re talking about).
DIRECTV says finding programming with Voice control will be as easy as speaking into the phone and asking “Search for Toy Hunter,” or, “Find the Heat game.” You’ll also be able to ask, “What movies are on HBO tonight?”
