Re: TV stuck on one channelHello all, to resolve this issue please reboot your cable box by unplugging it for 20-30 seconds then reconnect the box.
Please select all specifications which apply to you to get more accurate results.
- Run a scan for TV channels.
- Rescan for TV channels.
- Check the remote control.
- Rescan for the TV channels.
- Turn off the TV and turn it back on after a few minutes.
- Use the remote control of the box.
- Contact the cable TV operator.
If that didn't help, try resetting the remote to its default factory settings:
- Press and hold MUTE and SELECT together until the light flashes three times.
- Press 9, 8, 1 and SELECT. The remote flashes four times and should now reset.
The long channel changes have to do with the technology behind the DIRECTV system. AT&T's single-wire technology rearranges those frequencies so all your signals can go down a single wire. Finally, it gets to your DVR where it's interpreted and sent out to a client box.
Unplug your receiver's power cord from the electrical outlet, wait 15 seconds, and plug it back in. Press the Power button on the front panel of your receiver. Wait for your receiver to reboot.
Get the DIRECTV Remote appThe DIRECTV Remote app for Android lets you use your phone to change channels, pause, fast forward, rewind, and record all of your favorite shows, just like your DIRECT remote control. If you haven't already done so, download the DIRECTV Remote app from Google Play.
Is there an additional charge for the DIRECTV on DEMAND service? No, it's a free service provided by DIRECTV. However, in addition to the free content, there are PPV movies and other shows available for purchase.
To reset DIRECTV remotes to their default factory settings, press and hold the MUTE and SELECT buttons until the remote's light flashes three times. Then, enter 981 and press SELECT. The remote will flash four times to let you know it has been reset.
