Support Center Home

This page has FAQs about:

 

Playback Features

Q. Can I get information about a program I'm watching?

A. Yes. Press the INFO button twice, on the remote.

Q. Can I pause or rewind a rental movie?

A. Yes. After the rental movie starts, use the Play, Pause, FFWD, REW, and STOP buttons the way you would with a DVD player.

Q. Can I FFWD the commercials in MyPrimetime?

A. No. The MyPrimetime shows are designed to run exactly like they did during the original broadcast.

Q. Can I find out how many shows I've purchased or viewed recently?

A. Yes. The Purchased and Recently Viewed lists are unique for each digital receiver in your home. The program you’re
watching in your bedroom only appears in the lists on your bedroom receiver. The lists are accessed from the horizontal scroll bar along the bottom of the On DEMAND menu screens.

 

 




Using PINs

Q. Can I restrict others from renting movies?

A. Yes. You can set up a Purchase PIN using the Settings or Menu button on the remote. Write down and save the PIN in a safe place.

Q. Can I restrict access to certain channels?

A. Yes. You can set up a Parental Control PIN to restrict access to:

  • A particular channel, such as an On DEMAND Subscription channel
  • All TV content with a particular rating, such as TV-14
  • All TV content broadcast during a particular time of day

Q. Can I change the Purchase or Parental Control PIN?

A. Yes. You can use your remote to change either number by pressing SETTINGS (or MENU), the A key, and then using the down arrow to choose the type of PIN option. Use the right arrow to choose the Enable, Disable, or Change option and follow the prompts on the TV screen.

Q. What if I forget my PIN?

A. Simply contact us. After you verify your identity, the service representative will reset your PIN.

 




Recording On DEMAND Shows

Q. Can I record a rental movie on DVR?
