DIRECTV Central

Almost everything you do with the DVR service starts from DIRECTV Central. You can set up recordings, watch live TV or recorded programs, read messages from DIRECTV, and access Showcases featuring entertaining and informative video clips. To get to DIRECTV Central, press the DIRECTV button on your remote control.

Occasionally, you will notice icons beside some of the options in DIRECTV Central. These icons will let you know that you have received something new from DIRECTV:

When you see this icon, you know you have Messages to read. See page 84 for more about DIRECTV Messages.

This icon appears next to selections that contains special video content. Highlight the selection and press PLAY (or SELECT) on your remote to play the video.

Choose the selection next to this icon to watch a special preview or visit a Showcase. See page 45 for more about Showcases.

You can find a complete glossary of icons in the inside back cover of this guide.

Take a Tour! Now that you’re all set up, we suggest you start with the tours provided in “The Basics in 5 Short Tours” on page 37. These will guide you through the basics and show you some fun features of the DIRECTV® HD DVR.
