Finding DIRECTV Programs Using Scout

The Scout icon at the bottom of the DIRECTV® programming guide lets you assign “Scouts” to search all DIRECTV® programming guides (both current and future) for very specific program title information.

To use the Scout feature:

1.Highlight the Scout icon in the program guide and select it.

2.Highlight one of the Scout 1-8 menu items from the next screen and press OK. If you’re setting up a new Scout, make sure to select a Scout menu item without a check beside it, since the check means you’ve already set up that Scout.

3.Select Enter Text to set up the information the Scout feature will look for in all program guide titles.

4.Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the desired search parameters. For example, if you are interested in tennis events, enter a common term you might see in program titles, like “tennis.”

5.Select Run Scout. The Scout feature will search for information in all DIRECTV® programming guide titles.
