You may have incorrectly specified the type of program guide for your DIRECTV satellite receiver. There are two types of
DIRECTV program guides: MPG (Master Program Guide) and APG (Advanced Program Guide). During Guided Setup, you select
either Serial-MPG or Serial-APG to determine how your channels are changed.
To change this option: First, unplug the power cord for the satellite receiver and plug it back in. Next, go to TiVo Central, then select
Messages & Setup, then Settings, then Channels, then Channel Changing, and select "Serial cable." If you originally selected Serial-
MPG, change your selection to Serial-APG. (If you originally selected Serial-APG, change it to Serial-MPG.) You can also check
the manual for your satellite receiver (as well as the satellite receiver's system setup screen) for information on the type of
DIRECTV program guide it uses.
