New Scene for the Genie Direct TV

I do not like the new set up for Direct TV. How do I get into the menu so I can choose which episode to watch. How do I delete a program without going to the end of the program and choose to delete it? How do we go back to the old format?

no start up buffer on new receiver

I had a couple of HR24 receivers. One suffered a BSOD and was replaced by an HR54R1/500 receiver.  Previously when starting up either receiver, there would be 90 minutes of buffer on whatever station was tuned.  The new receiver has zero buffer when starting.  Is this typical?
