Is there an easier way to switch between favorites? If I am using a favorite list as a guide and I want to switch back to All Channels it is quite cumbersome. Even all the old recievers used to have a favorites button. You would also figure if pushing the guide button once brings up a whole list of lists than the different favorites would be in the list.

Nope...
Just Menu->Favorites->Highlight Favorites, Select, Exit

Well that sounds like a wish list item to me. Have all the favorites in the guide list.

Send it to brott... he'll add it.
But how do you want it changed....
They are all available in the guide list... but you just want an easier way to access it...
Which button on the remote should they use? (all the colors are used).
Should it be a menu, that you can pick the favorite... wait that is already there.
Or should it toggle between the defined favorite lists..
Sorry to do that... but it is simply easy to say... add that feature.
But "what" do you exactly want to see added... aka, how do you want to access the different favorite lists.

I might be missing something but I dont see them in the guide list. When I hit guide once the first item in the list is my current selected favorites list. The second item is movie and event channels, etc. I dont have the ability to switch here. The second item should be the other favorites, the next option all channels.

While your in guide, you can change you favorites lists via the quick menu. That's what Earl meant. I don't think I'd like having the favorites in the filters list, but I would have to see it. Maybe it's something they are working on in the new GUI?

It still just seems like a lot of keystrokes to change between favorites.

Let's count them:
Now:
1. Menu
2. Select Favorites
3. Select Custom/All Channels
4. Guide
5. Guide
Proposed:
1. Guide
2 Select All Channels/Custom
Another suggestion would be to be able to bring up the Channel Guide upon pressing #3.
