TV Guide Plus

TV Guide Plus, TV Guide Plus+, TV Guide On Screen, (in North America), Guide Plus+ (in Europe), and G-Guide (in Japan), were brand names for an interactive electronic program guide (EPG) system incorporated into a range of consumer electronics products, including televisions, DVD recorders, digital video recorders (DVR), and other digital television devices. The service provided on‑screen program listings that allowed viewers to navigate, sort, select, and schedule television programming for viewing and recording.

Although marketed under the TV Guide name, the on‑screen service was separate from the long‑running TV Guide magazine. Gemstar acquired the magazine in 1999 to align its electronic listings with the established print brand, but after Rovi purchased Gemstar in 2008 the magazine was sold off to OpenGate Capital and is operated independently. The on‑screen system itself passed to Rovi Corporation, which later acquired TiVo Inc. in 2016 and adopted the TiVo (now Xperi) name. The service was discontinued between 2012 and the start of 2017, following an abrupt cutoff of programing data in North America and a gradual withdrawal of support worldwide.
