Thread: Channels I Get

Page 37 of the DIRECTV Plus Receiver User Guide, under Channels I Get says: In addition to displaying all channels or creating lists of favorite channels, you can also set your DIRECTV Plus Receiver to display only the channels that are in your current subscription package.

I have had my system for four days and have been on with customer support about an hour every days since. Not one of the level 1, 2, or 3 technicians have been able to get this feature to work for me.

When I go Menu, Favorites, Edit Settings, Set Current, I show:
All Channels 479
Ch's I Get 479
Custom 1 67
Custom 2 None

Ch's I Get should be something like 185 based on the packages I have.

If I select Custom 2 and click on Add Ch's I get, the Custom 2 then shows 479.

This is not in accord with the User Guide.

Has anyone got this feature to work correctly?

Mine is the same way you describe on a D10-100, it makes me sad.

The channels you get will show all of the PPV channels also, since you're able to view them by ordering.

I saw that too whenI originally set mine up, but I decided to do it my own way, by going thru all the channels, because there are a lot of them I get that I don't want on the guide, like shopping channels, most music channels, I have no need for MTV or VH1 type stuff anymore.

A little too old for those channels, are you?

Yup, I can no longer tell what they are saying or singing.

And these days you probably don't want to know

Ch's I Get should be working after all of DirecTV's recievers and systems get updated. No sooner.To me, it looks like it should working for everone by March (but I have no inside information).

VH1C is a good channel, they show stuff from the 80's and early 90's.

Back when music was good, love the Metal Mania show.
