Find By
Would you like to locate a particular program, movie or sports event you want to see — even shows
starring a favorite actor, or games with your favorite team? Find by offers some easy ways to spot just
what you want to watch.
Press MENU, then select Find by . You can find a program by Title, Keyword or Channel. Your
search will be quicker if you narrow your search by selecting subcategories; just follow the onscreen
instructions. Once you’ve found a program you’re after, all you have to do is highlight and select the
title to display when the program is on.
Recent Finds
If you’d like to repeat a previous search, select Recent Finds , then select your search to view
matching programs.
Note
Keep in mind, when you search with Find by, only those programs slated to air within the Guide’s
number of days of programming supported by your receiver will appear on your list.
Category Sort
This feature lets you temporarily arrange the Guide to list only programs in a particular category
such as Movies, Sports or News.
While in the Guide, from the Quick Menu, select Category Sort . To further narrow your search,
select the category you want, then select a subcategory if you wish. To quickly move through the
Category Search results, use the RED or GREEN key on your remote to advance or reverse in 90-
minute increments.
Press GUIDE to return to the regular Guide, or EXIT to return to live TV.
Pay Per View
This option enables you to check out DIRECTV Pay Per View listings by category.
While in the Guide, press MENU, then select Pay Per View . You will see three choices for sorting
the listings. Choose All to display all current pay per view programs. Movies will give you listings of
all current movies available. Pick Special Events to see specific events such as sports, comedy specials
and more. The Guide will update with matching programs.
