I subscribe to Directv satellite with the choice package. When I travel I want to stream H&I (385) but it is not available to stream. The pdf channel guide says it is available. How can I fix this?

New Menu rollout fiasco.
The other day DIRECTV rolled out a new update. I have yet to realize any improvements from the old one. The thing that really (Edited per community guidelines) is my two TCL Roku TV's open in the smart TV section and I have to select satellite feed to get to DIRECTV. It's always been this way and wa

Grandfathered XTRA Package vs Premier Package
I have an old XTRA Package I have been grandfathered into. My price has recently been jacked up to 160.99. I have HBO/SHO at 29.98. The regional sports fee is 19.99. That adds up to 210.96, before services and taxes. While looking into ways to move to a current package to cut my cost, I see the Prem

New List format is awful
The new List function is horrible. Under the old format, I could select recorded shows with one button. The new function is counter-intuitive and just awful. Whoever thought of this ought to be fired. Is there a way to revert to the old format? Aside from the never-ending commercials, this gives me

If anyone at DirecTV actually reads this, please restore the simple “list” function of recorded programs. Two days ago, its was replaced on my satellite service with a cumbersome, counter-intuitive image-based screen with a “browse” button that doesn’t browse, it takes you back where you started in

When can we expect a bug fix for the new UI? (July 2026 - Workaround included)

New Program Guide
We tried setting up a recording for a series to see only new episodes, and the icon to show the status doesn't appear. Going back to edit for all episodes didn't work, either. This new guide is has too many bugs and shouldn't have been pushed out.

Please bring back the old List
The new Direct Tv Menu (Edited per community guidelines)! I can’t find programs that I have recorded. I can no longer watch the 10 Law and Order shows that it shows I have recorded. When I click on it it just takes me back to the menu again. Why can’t companies leave things alone. The old way was so

DirecTV App / Unable to Stream Channels
I had my DVR receiver replaced today with the Genie 2 HS17. While there are no issues with any of my TVs and physical receivers if I try to watch my programming on any of my mobile devices or Apple TV the majority of the channels are no longer available to be streamed. Was working on all devices wit
