To access On Demand content with DIRECTV, follow these steps:
1. Turn on Your Receiver: Make sure your DIRECTV receiver is powered on and connected to your TV.
2. Press the “Menu” Button: On your remote control, press the “Menu” button. This will open the main menu on your TV screen.
3. Navigate to On Demand:
– Use the arrow keys on your remote to scroll through the menu options.
– Look for the “On Demand” section. This might be under a broader category such as “Movies & Shows” or “Search & Browse.”
4. Browse On Demand Content: Once you’re in the On Demand section, you can browse through available titles by genre, network, or popularity. You can also use the search function to find a specific movie or TV show.
5. Select a Title: After you find a show or movie you want to watch, select it. You may be prompted to choose an episode (if it’s a TV series) or to rent or purchase the content (for premium titles).
6. Start Watching: Once you’ve selected your content, follow any on-screen prompts to start watching. If it’s a free On Demand title, it will begin streaming immediately. If it’s a rental or pay-per-view, you may need to confirm your selection before proceeding.
7. Use Your DIRECTV App (Optional): If you have the DIRECTV app on your phone or tablet, you can also access On Demand content there. Open the app, go to the “On Demand” section, and browse or search for shows or movies.
Make sure your DIRECTV subscription includes On Demand access, as some content may be limited based on your package or additional subscriptions.
