What are Favorites Lists?

W
HAT ARE
Favorites Lists are custom lists of your favorite channels. You can create and change the
lists yourself, adding and removing channels as you wish. Your favorite channels can be
grouped in as many as four lists (for each whole-home HD receiver).

You can edit any channels on the four Favorites Lists. When you use your Favorites List,
only those channels in the list are shown in the Program Guide and Browse Banner.

When using a Favorites List, the Program Guide and Browse Banner display only the
channels in that Favorites List. Also, when you use the UP or DOWN ARROW to
change channels, the receiver skips channels that are not on the list. Unlisted
channels (included in your current DISH programming package) are still accessible by
entering the channel number directly using the remote control NUMBER PAD.
The All Channels list contains all the channels, including channels not in your current
DISH package. You cannot edit or change the system's default All Channels list.
The My Channels list contains all current channels in your DISH package. You cannot
edit or change the My Channels list, except by modifying your DISH package.
The My HD Channels list contains all the high-definition channels in your package.
You can give each of your custom Favorites Lists a unique name. When you first
install your DISH receiver, by default the four lists are named List 1, List 2, List 3, and
List 4. These lists are empty until you edit them in order to add channels.
From your Hopper with Sling and its remote, only the Favorites Lists for the TV
connected to that Hopper are available. If you go to a different room and acess a Joey
Receiver and remote there, only the Favorites Lists for that Joey's TV are available.
If you choose a program using the Themes feature, or directly enter a channel number
using the NUMBER PAD on the remote control, then the receiver tunes to the channel
for that program whether or not that channel is included on the active Favorites List.
Parental controls can be used to lock certain channels from being accessed this way.
