I have reviewed online steps thru the support website but it appears that the steps shown do not apply to the guide that is on on my DVR. There is no way on this guide, to select the channel logo or number.
Just too many unnecessary steps in order to set a favorite channel
Greetings!
Sorting Favorites on the ODN guide is pretty easy:
Press Settings on Remote.
Horizontal Scroll to "Favorite Channels"
You will see a long list of all channels in the system.
1.) When in the Favorite Channel Screen, Hold the Page +/- button on your remote to get near your favorite channel numbers area. Just tap Page Up/down button to not go so fast, OR just enter your favorite channel number using your remote, while in this screen.
You can scroll up and down using the up/down arrow keys.
2.) Go to the channel (s) you want to favorite, by selecting it with the arrows and it shows blue. Or just enter the channel number.
3.) Press Select to Favorite the channel, a star appears. You can move up and down, or select Page +/- to move faster through your channels, and favorite other channels in the screen. Press the OK/SEL button and put a star next to them.
4.) To remove a channel from the Favorites list, make the channel blue by selecting it, and removing the star.
5.) Follow the prompt to Save your changes when done.
Repeat steps 1-5 to make other channels favorites, or remove them from your Favorites List.
Optional Guide Filtering: Press The Guide Button twice on ODN, and you can select how you want the Time Guide to Filter your channels. If you select Favorites, only channels that you made when you created your Favorites List will be selected. To remove the filter and select another filter, or go back to "All Channels." Just press the Guide button twice on your remote and make a Channel Time Grid Selection.
