Identifying pay per view programs

There are several ways to identify pay per view programs.

1If you tune to a channel currently showing a pay per view program which you have not yet purchased, a message appears telling you how to order the program.

2If you press the INFO button on your remote control to view information about a program in the Guide or about a program you are currently tuned to, you will see the pay per view icon in the Channel Banner for that program.

Ordering pay per view programs

To order a pay per view program:

1Locate and highlight the program you wish to purchase in the Guide.

You can purchase current programs (as long as the program is less than half over) or future programs.

2Press the INFO button on your remote control.

The Program Details screen appears, with the list of available actions for that program.

3Use the arrow keys on your remote control to highlight the Buy item from the list, then press the OK button.

A confirmation screen appears in which you can confirm or cancel your purchase.

Pay per view purchases are billed with your regular monthly statement for DIRECTV® programming.

Note: You can set spending limits for pay per view purchases using your DIRECTV® High- Definition Receiver’s Menu system. See Chapter 6 for details.
