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 can select:
•
View Channel to tune to that channel
•
Buy Program to purchase the program
•
Buy and Record to purchase the program and record it on your VCR.
You may be required to pay an additional fee to record a program.
Make sure to set a timer or press record on the VCR to initiate the
recording. (See Timers Feature later in this section.)
•
Other Times to see what other times the program is available. The
program title is automatically entered and sorted in the AlphaSort
control panel. If no other times are available, this option will not be
available.
The options available to you may vary according to the type of program
you select.
Using the Attractions Guide
DIRECTV may offer future programming events not currently listed in
your Program guide. These events are called “coming attractions,” and
can be previewed in the Attractions Guide.
1.
Press the GUIDE button on the remote until the Detail Guide or Grid
Guide appears on-screen.
2.
Use the down arrow button to move the highlight to the bottom of
the screen.
Buy and Record Option
The Buy and Record option is available for
those programs that require additional
fees for you to record the event. In these
cases, if you do not choose to Buy and
Record, DIRECTV will encode the signal so
that it cannot be recorded.
