Pay Per View
If a pay per view program exceeds spending or rating limits you have set with Parental Controls, a password will be required to purchase it.
Your DIRECTV® HD DVR makes buying and recording pay per view events a snap. You can order them when they are promoted on live TV, or during a search for programs. If you tune to a pay per view channel that has an upcoming pay per view event, you will see a message bar at the bottom of the screen which says "Press SELECT for ordering information. " If you press SELECT, you will see the pay per view Program Information screen. While watching promotions for other pay per view events on a pay per view channel (for example, between showings of a pay per view event), you may see a small message that alternately says "Press Select" and "Next Showing. " If you press SELECT, you will see the pay per view Program Information screen for the next showing of the pay per view event airing on the current channel. When you order a pay per view event from live TV, or select a pay per view event in Pick Programs to Record or the Program Guide, you see the pay per view Program Information screen. Options on this screen vary, depending on whether the selected event is currently showing, is already scheduled to record, or is currently available for purchase. Though some events have dedicated channels that allow ordering more than 24 hours in advance, you usually cannot use the HD DVR to purchase a pay per view event more than 24 hours before the event airs.

Purchases
The pay per view Program Information screen gives you the following options: · Purchase & record info. If the HD DVR does not have purchase information (such as the price of the pay per view event) immediately available, it can do a quick check to retrieve it. When the HD DVR gets purchase information, the event becomes available to purchase and record. To check for purchase information the HD DVR must briefly tune to a special channel. If you are recording a program, checking for pricing information this way may create a short skip in the recording. The skip is usually less than two seconds but may be up to ten seconds long. The HD DVR provides a confirmation screen so you can avoid such a skip by choosing not to check for purchase information. If the HD DVR finds purchase information by tuning away, the pay per view screen will be refreshed with the new information and you will have the option to purchase and record the program.
