Music Choice is rebranding a bunch of channels on 8/26 and reordering their core 50 channel digital cable lineup with some channels moving to the app to make room for other additions. Last time they did a reshuffle it didn't affect DIRECTV's lineup, but this time several channels DTV carries will be undergoing name changes:
803 '60s -> '60s Generation (DTV still lists this as 60s Movement)
809 Country Hits -> Country Favorites
816 Hit List -> Today's Hits
837 Rock Hits -> Alt & Rock Favorites
843 R&B Soul -> Today's R&B
848 Throwback Jamz -> Throwback Jams
867 Teen Hits -> Trending Hits (DTV still lists this as Teen Beats)
870 Romances -> Romantic Latin Pop
871 Pop Latino -> Today's Latin Hits

Even though the site says Party Favorites is being "renamed" to Pop Energy for digital cable viewers, their app recently added it as a separate channel, so DTV might be keeping Party Favorites on channel 880

The changes took effect at midnight ET and they ended up renaming some of the other ones, even though DTV's guide still lists everything by the previous names:
817 Y2K -> 2000s
818 Max -> Pop & Hip-Hop
828 Gospel Hallelujah -> Southern Gospel
836 Coffee Shop Cuts -> Coffee Shop Favorites

And these app only channels also got new names:
2K10s -> 2010s
Fresh -> New Music Now
MC Workout: Yoga -> Yoga Vibes
Rap 2K -> 2000s Rap
R&B 2K -> 2000s R&B
