Yes I discovered that after I'd done it - it affects another listings page, which is totally useless anyway.
It very useful to me.
Serves the same purpose as the customize button did.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Web-DVR-Information-23309858 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 12:29:14 EDT Re: Web DVR Information http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Web-DVR-Information-23309516 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Web-DVR-Information-23309516 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 10:11:05 EDT Re: Web DVR Information http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Web-DVR-Information-23309390 said by PresRC:

I saw and tried that page but it has no effect on the channels shown on the TV listings grid. Does anyone know how to communicate with the right person to get some attention to this valuable feature loss?
from another thread on the guide, it works:

While you're in the TV Listings page, click on Settings. Click the name of the account that you're currently logged in, turn on Parental Controls, and click Edit next to Channels. Select all of the channels you don't want the TV Listings to show and click the Save button.

The options are:

E-Mail
DVR
Search
Weather
Traffic
Movies

As you can see there is not an option for TV listings. The options in the DVR link are:

Find Programs to Record

Recorded Programs
Scheduled Recordings

You must first search for a program using "Find Programs to Record" and then schedule a recording. You can't view all shows at a particular time and schedule a recording.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Web-DVR-Information-23261791 Thu, 29 Oct 2009 16:26:34 EDT Re: Web DVR Information http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Web-DVR-Information-23260451

You can no longer customize the listings?
Was able to remove channels.

Yes, that ability was removed for some reason. On top of that, if you already had remove channels, it didn't default back to all channels. You have no way to add those channels back.
yea, i noticed that
and it adds any new channels ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Web-DVR-Information-23256216 Wed, 28 Oct 2009 17:33:38 EDT Re: Web DVR Information http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Web-DVR-Information-23255685 said by JDolan :

You'd think they could have fixed that by now.

Anyone tried this from a mobile browser?
