Pay-Per-View Programs
Pay-per-view programs (PPV) are programs that you purchase—
like a movie ticket—on an event-by-event basis. For instance,
there might be a specific channel that runs nothing but previews
for movies. After previewing the movie, you can purchase it or
find out more details about it. PPV programs can also be found
in the program guide.
Purchasing and Previewing
There are several ways to purchase and preview PPV movies and
events:
• Tune to a PPV program’s channel. Program providers may
offer on-screen purchase instructions, usually as the PPV
program begins.
• Select a PPV program from the program guide.
• Preview a coming attraction by selecting a channel from the
Attractions Guide.
Tuning to a PPV Program
When you use the channel buttons or digits on the remote to
tune to a Pay-Per-View channel, you need to press the INFO
button to bring up the Program Details screen in order to
purchase a program.
Use the program guide to get to the Program
Details screen.
Follow the on-screen instructions to purchase the selected
program.
You may need to enter your four-
digit password to order a PPV
program if it costs more than the
spending limit you set up in the
Profiles menu.
