I am sure it's just me, but I have an absolute terrible time trying to search on the Directv guide. Every search option says "this could take a minute" and after 5 or 6 minutes... I just give up. And when it does find something... it's not what I was looking for.

I have commented on forums on this site in the past about the hidden search feature, I think called Boolean, on Directv receivers before. Something like #AALL CCHAN or something... However, when I search today, I get no results.

What do I type in to find this:

All live sports games that fit this criteria:
Not blacked out
*Not auto racing of any type
*If UFC and MMA and the like are tagged as sports, exclude that too.
Can be NFL, MLB, NCAA, MLS, other soccer, NBA, NHL, etc
On channels that I can view
Doesn't repeat HD and SD.
Will search outside favorites list, as most of the "Alternate" channels are not in my favorites list.
I don't care if the game is English or Spanish - but HD is obviously preferred (Fox Deportes needs to be HD...)

In other words, all live, not blacked out sports (except racing) on channels 2-70, 200-460, 480-491, 600-699. I have Sunday Ticket, so that last one would be 600-718 during the NFL season.

*If excluding things can't be done, that's not the end of the world.

Thanks!
