CHAPTER 5 - EXTRAS & SPECIAL FEATURES
GAMESEARCH™
Sports blackouts, a long-time source of frustration and confusion
for sports fans, occur when a sporting event is not televised in a
certain area. But thanks to DIRECTV’s cutting-edge technology,
whenever you tune to a channel with a blacked-out game,
GameSearch™ detects the blackout and immediately looks to see
if the game is on another channel. If a broadcast of the game is
found, GameSearch displays an onscreen message that gives you
the option to tune to that channel. If it can’t find an accessible
broadcast, an onscreen message will state that the game is
unavailable.
QUICKTUNE
Use QuickTune to get to your nine “must see” channels fast! While
watching live TV, press the UP arrow on your remote control. A
display with fields for 9 channels will appear on screen. To fill in
the fields, press the ENTER button on your remote control. The
channel you are currently viewing will be added to the currently
highlighted field in the QuickTune display. After you’ve made all
your picks, press the UP arrow whenever you want to bring up the
application. Use the arrow keys to highlight the channel you want
to watch and then press SELECT.
