Pay-Per-View Programs

Pay-per-view programs (PPV) are programs that you purchase—like a movie
ticket—on an event-by-event basis. For instance, a channel with pay-per-view
programs may run nothing but previews for movies. After previewing the
movie, you can purchase it or find out more details about it. PPV programs
are labeled "CINE" in the Program Guide.

Purchasing and Previewing

There are several ways to purchase and preview PPV movies and events:
• Tune to a PPV program's channel. DIRECTV may offer on-screen purchase
instructions, usually as the PPV program begins.
• Choose a PPV program from the program guide.
• Preview a coming attraction by selecting a channel from the Attractions
Guide.

Tuning to a PPV Program

When you use the channel buttons or digits on the remote to tune to a Pay-
Per-View channel, you need to press the INFO button to bring up the
Program Details screen in order to purchase a program.
Use the program guide to get to the Program
Details screen.
Follow the on-screen instructions to purchase the selected program.

Using the Program Guide for PPV Programs

Another way to get to the Program Details screen is by using the program
guide. Highlight the program name in the guide and press INFO.
The Program Details screen gives you several options.
You need to connect your phone line
to your satellite receiver to be able to
order PPV programs using the on-
screen menus.
You may need to enter your four-
digit password to order a PPV
program if it exceeds a spending
limit you set up in the Profiles
menu.
