Getting Around in the Guides
There are several ways to change channels and move around the TV and DIRECTV
programming guides.
•
Point to channels with the number buttons (0-9)
You can quickly highlight any channel in the program guides by entering the channel
number with the number buttons (0-9). For example, to highlight channel 228, press
the numbers 2-2-8 and press OK on the remote control. To highlight channel 73, press
7-3 and OK.
•
Scroll channel by channel
The programs that you see on the TV screen make up one section—or page—of the
total program guide. You can scroll to other sections using the arrows: highlight other
times with the left and right arrows; highlight other channels with the up and down
arrows.
•
Scroll page by page
If you want to scroll up or down through the program guides faster, press the channel
up and down buttons on the remote control. The highlight scrolls a page at a time.
Tuning to a Program
•
To tune directly to a current program listed in a guide, highlight the program name
and press OK.
•
To see information about a program or channel in the guide, highlight the program or
channel name and press INFO.
After you highlight a program name and press INFO, the Program Details screen appears
and gives you several options.
Then, if the program is not a Pay Per View (PPV) program, your options are to
choose:
•
View Channel to tune to that channel
•
Channel Guide to see a program lineup for that channel
•
Other Times to see what other times the program is available
The options available to you may vary according to the type of program you select. If
the program is PPV, you will have the option to buy the program.
