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.
To view a listing of future programming in
the guide, continuously press the right
arrow button on the remote control to
scroll to the right.
