Setting up a Tivo HD DVR Series 3, Channel Lineup is not showing movie stations (channel 500-540)?
Question:
My problem is that I cannot get the channel setup to show any of the stations higher than channel 115. Also from the 80s on, they list like 88-01 to 88-20 or so, which I thought was strange. I do not recall any of that on the Series 2.
When the TIvo setup asks for my cable service, it only gives me the options of basic cable or extended basic cable. (My Bresnan Cable bill lists my service as Digital Cable Classic Plus.) I have tried to use the extended basic option, (going to the advanced setup screen, I believe), and then when it asks for Premium stations, I say yes, and add EncoreR, but on the channel lineup, it only goes to channel 70 (QVC), and then all the other listings are the ones like 88-012 with an * after then and no information. They have only gone up to Channel 115.
I do not have my CableCard yet, it is supposed to be delivered on Tuesday. I thought this might be my trouble, but at one time (I have done the setup about 8 times now) I was able to get standard chanels up to 48 (Sci-Fi) at least.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you!
You have two lists to choose from:
1. all channels
2. favorites.
You have not picked your favorite channels yet and the guide may be set by default to favorites.
To fix it do the following.
This should be in your GUIDE MENU
then press ENTER to get to the GUIDE OPTIONS.
now change your channels setting from FAVORITE---- TO --ALL YOU RECIEVE.
Now since it is new, you will have to go manually and pick your favorites so all of the channels dont show on the guide.
