Flip Through Only Favorite Channels?
I have searched and am not able to find how I can set up my Xfinity Remote so I can flip through only my favorite channels. My old Dish account allowed me to change the guide view, which also controlled when I went up or down a channel. Currently, it stops on unsubscribed channels -which is a waste of time. How can I fix this? Asking because my 88 year old Mother keeps getting hung up when it stops on an unsubscribed channel. I am not streaming, I have the actual DVR box.

What are you trying to do - set up the channel guide to show only favorites, or have the channel selector show only favorites?
The first is easy enough - bring up the guide, then press the Guide button on the remote, select "Favorites" from the list, and press the selector button.
I don't think Xfinity has ever let anyone do the second one. If your mother wants to select only favorite channels, it looks like she has to do it from the guide.
And to make things worse, Xfinity is notorious for not implementing changes - a number of us have been waiting for years things available pretty much everywhere else, like being able to move the guide two hours at a time (instead of the only options being 30 minutes and 24 hours) and being able to have a paused show move forward one frame at a time (rather than half speed being the slowest possible speed).

ThatDonGuy is correct. You can set up several types of guides, including "Favorites" (my favorite, and I use it constantly). You can add or remove channels easily, as many as you want.
