Default Alphanbetizing Series One Now Playing List?

I have a Philips Series One Tivo. Is there a way to alphabetize the Now
Playing list?

I have looked at the manual and poked around a bit, but I cannot figure out
if this is possible.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your speedy reply, David -- I can't believe I actually asked the
same question less than a year ago and have so quickly forgotten the answer.

I appreciate your help!

Yes it is, but it's about as hidden as the 30 second skip key.

1) go to now playing
2) type slow 0 record thumbs up (see, it's mnemonically "SORT")
- Now you can switch between record date, expire date, or alphabetical
with 1, 2, 3 (or use the menu that comes up when you hit enter).

I switch between 1 and 3 fairly often if I'm searching for a specific show,
or sometimes as a "shortcut" to move up the list (after seeing if
I have suggestions).. i.e. I'm usually in record date mode.. I usually
page down a zillion times to get to the bottom.. But if I can change to
alphabetical and move to an item that'll be near the top of the list, I
can get back to the top faster than paging up a bunch of times..
(even with the long waits to show now playing)
