Channel Changing. Use this setting to make changes to the way your Recorder changes channels on your cable or satellite box. You should do this if:

you change the type of control cable (IR or Serial) used to change channels on your cable or satellite box (see “Choosing a Channel Changing Cable” on page 5),

your cable or satellite box is replaced by a new make or model,

you are having trouble with channel changing (see page 136 for troubleshooting.)

Channel Lists. The Recorder uses channel lists to determine which channels to display in the guide, and which channels are available for recording programs. Features such as Search by Title, Search Using a WishList, and Browse By Channel search for programs only on channels you select in the Channels You Receive list.

Channels You Receive. The Channels You Receive list starts with all the channels included in your service package. You can customize it to include only channels you actually subscribe to and to reflect your viewing preferences. For example, if you never watch a channel and don’t plan to set up any recordings on it, or search for programs on it, you can de-select it here.

Favorite Channels. The Favorite Channels list is for channels you watch frequently. Include only a few channels in this list, so that you can quickly look at what’s coming up on them using the guide. See “Customizing the Guide” on page 47.

To set up a custom channel list:

1.Select the Channels You Receive or Favorite Channels list. A check mark appears to the left of channels that are part of the selected list.

2.To remove or add a channel, highlight it and press SELECT. You can speed through the list with the CHAN UP/DOWN. To go directly to a specific channel, use the number buttons, then press ENTER. Your changes are saved automatically.
