• Satellite Box Only: You may have incorrectly specified the type of program guide for your DIRECTV satellite box. There are two
types of program guides: MPG (Master Program Guide) and APG (Advanced Program Guide).
To change this option: First, unplug the power cord for the satellite box, wait a few seconds, then plug it back in. Next, go to TiVo
Central, then Message & Setup, then Settings, the TiVo DMS Setup, then Cable/Satellite Box, then Satellite Channel Changing and
select "Satellite Box." On the Connection to Satellite screen, 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 box (as well
as the satellite box's system setup screen) for information on the type of program guide it uses.
