Understanding DISH Pay Per View
Trying to find an overview of all the DISH Pay-Per-View programming available?
* DISH Network Pay-Per-View Barker on channel 500 has previews and schedule information for Pay-Per-View movies, sports and events available Monday through Sunday and Channel 450 features sports airing live on TV today.
Where can you find Pay-Per-View programs in High Definition (HD)?
* DISH Network Pay-Per-View offers movies and events in HD. In order to view high definition programs, you must have an HD television in addition to an HD capable receiver and a DISH 500 antenna.
What does "enhanced All Day DISH Ticket (ADDT)" mean?
* The enhanced All Day DISH Ticket (ADDT) allows you access to pay-per-view programs for up to an entire day on every channel that program is playing on. Movies and events on ADDT channels are shown for up to 24 hours beginning anywhere from 5:00am EST to 6:30am EST (depending on the channel) and ending at the same time the following morning. This means that if you order a film at 1:00pm on channel 503, you will be able to watch it as many times as it airs through 5:30am EST the next morning.
What is SAP and how can you find out if youhave it?
* SAP stands for Secondary Audio Programming. Simply put, it means that there is another language track available on the program. Most often this "secondary audio" is Spanish. This feature can be activated on most TVs or on your DISH Network receiver in the "Settings" menu.
* To find out if a program has SAP, highlight the program in the on-screen guide, and press "info" on your remote control. The description should include "(SAP)" at the end if the program you want to watch has SAP. In the case of Pay-Per-View movies that are being shown on more than one channel, you may need look for "(SAP)" in the extended information for each channel.
What is Letterbox format?
* Letterbox (sometimes denoted as "LBX" in your on-screen guide) is best known as the format with "the black bars" on the top and bottom of the screen. This is a way to watch a movie as it was presented in theatres since a movie screen is wider than your TV. In the letterbox format, the original movie screen size is kept intact, which produces a black bar on the top and bottom of the TV screen.
How you can control the Pay-Per-View programming that your family has access to.
* There are a couple of ways to ensure that only authorized viewers can see Pay-Per-View content. First, you can activate the Adult Guard feature on your receiver through the Locks menu. This feature hides the adult pay-per-view channels from your on-screen guide.
* Second, you can activate the Pay-Per-View locks on your receiver. This will require a password from anyone in your household wishing to order a Pay-Per-View program. Follow these easy instructions:
1. Go to the Locks menu
2. Select "PPV Locks"
3. Enter a four-digit passcode
4. Then, go back into the Locks menu and select "Activate Locks"
