Special Features of HDTV Digital Receiver
Impulse Pay Per View (IPPV)
You must connect your phone line to the HDTV Digital Receiver to receive pay per
view (PPV) service offered by DIRECTV. Connecting the phone line permits you to
use the IPPV feature, which allows event purchases without calling a CSR (Customer
Service Representative). If you decide against connecting to your phone line, you
must call the CSR to purchase events, such as Pay per view movies. DIRECTV refers
to such CSR assisted purchases as OPPV (Order ahead pay per view).
When OPPV or subscription authorization changes (e.g., customer cancels the movie
purchases), the HDTV Digital Receiver will reflect that change immediately. The
HDTV Digital Receiver will display a message, identifying the reason for the
authorization status change.
The HDTV Digital Receiver has the ability to allow you to purchase a PPV event
offered by DIRECTV. When the HDTV Digital Receiver is tuned to an IPPV channel,
(video may or may not be displayed, depending upon whether the PPV event has
started) the following message is displayed on the screen.
Press ACTION if you want to purchase this event.
