Getting info on the program you're watching
Your DIRECTV ® HD Receiver provides several kinds of information about the TV programs you

Information icons
In addition to the basic channel and program information contained in the Channel Banners
(program title, channel name, rating, etc.), there is a set of information icons. These icons tell you
more about the program you are watching and about the status of your HD Receiver. Descriptions of
each icon follow:

an alternate audio track.
