Sorting the Current DIRECTV
®
Programming Guide Alphabetically
The AlphaSort
™
feature lists all the program titles in the current
DIRECTV ® programming guide in alphabetical order. You can also find
this icon in the channel banner. Select the AlphaSort icon to search for
specific program titles that are in the current guide. After listing
programs whose first letter or number match your entry, AlphaSort lists
programs in the current DIRECTV
® programming guide that have your
entry anywhere in the title.
In the AlphaSort menu, use the arrow buttons on your remote control
to highlight a character, then press OK.
For example, to search for the program Auto Racing, the first letter you
should highlight and select is “A.” (Words like “The”, “A”, and “An”
appear at the end of a title.) All titles that begin with “A” appear in the
AlphaSort list. Next, enter the letter “U”. All titles beginning with “AU”
appear in the list. Programs that contain “AU” anywhere in their titles
will appear at the end of the list.
Finding DIRECTV Programs Using Scout
™
The Scout icon at the bottom of the DIRECTV ® programming guide lets
you assign “Scouts” to search all DIRECTV ® programming guides (both
current and future) for very specific program title information.
To use the Scout feature:
1. Highlight the Scout icon in the program guide and select it.
2. Highlight one of the Scout 1-8 menu items from the next screen and
press OK. If you’re setting up a new Scout, make sure to select a
Scout menu item
without a check beside it, since the check means
you have already set up that Scout.
Select a Scout menu item without a check to set up a
new Scout.
