I have hadnUverse for two years years now (directTV for the previous 12).... I have reached my limit with the unlock choices in the TV menu.  

1) Why do I have to confirm the unlick cocde?  I obviously know the code.  Confirmation is a big pain as the remote response is soo bad, that any extra required inputs are painful.

2) Why if I unlock a channel at 6:59 do I have to unlock it again at 7:00 when the program I want to watch actually starts?  How about a unlick for 34 hours or 3 hours or 2 hours or something?  Direct TV had this in the mid-90s.  Parent can unlock a TV at 8 PM and it is unlocked unltil midnight... .or not an just unlock a given program.

Please fix these basic issues.
