Is there an easy way to sort or just remove all those infomercial type channels?

As we all know there are so many of them, in the hundreds it seems like
DTV please give us an opt out choice

Creating a custom favorites list is the only way.....

yep, bring up your guide, hit the yellow button, goto change favorites list, then edit your Custom 1. i remove all the channels we never watch(LOGO/infomercials/SHOPPING/etc..) i also use this as a means to keep some of the "teen" channels off my 6 year old's tv.

Yup, that's what I do also. When your setting up your favorites list, usually if the channel has no logo or just a plain DirecTV logo, it's a crap channel and it deserves the boot. Real channels like AMC, TBS, TNT, Discovery, etc... have logo's.

Then you get to redo all of that everytime there's a software update as it tends to scramble the favorites lists!

I wish there was a way to remove the annoying banners that D inserts into the guide with or without favorites lists.

I have never had my favorites list changed from a software update.

I agree with you on this. It's really annoying.

huh? I just got an update the other day on both my R22's and the favorites stayed the same

I've never lost my favorites due to a software update either.

I didn't know you COULD lose channels in your favorites after a software update. Never had a problem on my 2 HR21's or my HR22.
