Chapter 5 Features

After you highlight a program name and press INFO, the Program Details screen appears and gives you several options.

Getting Around in the Guides

There are several ways to change channels and move around the TV and DIRECTV® programming guides.

Point to channels with the number buttons (0-9)

You can quickly highlight any channel in the program guides by entering the channel number with the number buttons (0-9). For example, to highlight channel 228, press the numbers 2-2-8 and press OK on the remote control. To highlight channel 73, press 7-3 and OK.

Scroll channel by channel

The programs that you see on the TV screen make up one section—or page—of the total program guide. You can scroll to other sections using the arrows: highlight other times with the left and right arrows; highlight other channels with the up and down arrows.

Scroll page by page

If you want to scroll up or down through the program guides faster, press the channel up and down buttons on the remote control. The highlight scrolls a page at a time.

Note: To view a listing of future programming in the guide, continuously press the right arrow button on the remote control to scroll to the right.

Tuning to a Program

To tune directly to a current program listed in a guide, highlight the program name and press OK.

To see information about a program or channel in the guide, highlight the program or channel name and press INFO.

Then, if the program is not a Pay Per View (PPV) program, your options are the following:

View Channel to tune to that channel

Channel Guide to see a program lineup for that channel

Other Times to see what other times the program is available

The options available to you may vary according to the type of program you select. If the program is PPV, you will have the option to buy the program.
