Has anyone found a way to go directly to the HD version of a channel instead of going to the SD version first and then hitting up on the remote?
For example, if I want to watch USA in HD, I have to enter 242 on the remote (which takes me to USA in SD), and then hit up on the remote to get to the HD version. Can do something to make entering 242 on the remote take me directly to the HD version of the channel (it already seems to do this for my local channels.
use the Favorites option in your guide. I created a new favorite list, cleverly called "USE ME". I set it with only the HD versions of channels I get, and then trim out all the PPV and other channels I don't get (no NBCW for us here in Jersey). Helps trim the fat from the guide, and gives you direct access to the HD channel if you key it in.
Sadly it doesn't remove the channels from the listing search, so you still have to know what channel you're selecting if you're using the guide search.
