On the DirecTV website, it says that DirecTV will have an interactive Olympic guide

What time will NBC Universal's coverage of men's track and field begin? Which channel is showing soccer, wrestling or gymnastics? Use the Olympics Guide to find answers to schedule questions.^ Simply press the RED button on your remote to call up the MENU. Then highlight and select "Olympics Guide."

So I press the red button on my remote this morning, and my R15 just bongs at me. I tried pressing the "active" button to get to the interactive channels, but I don't see any Olympic guide.

How do I get to the Olympic guide (and the interactive medal count) which DirecTV offers?

You have to be watching on channels 750-756. It works on both my HR20 and my D11.

Note: It takes approximately 20 seconds for the RED MENU prompt to appear - the interactive app is being loaded during this time.

Also note that if you hit EXIT on live TV on one of the interactive channels, you can disable the interactive app so to reload it, press GUIDE and then return to live TV. After 20 seconds, the RED MENU prompt should return.

Mine is taking about 5 to 6 seconds on HR20s and HR21, longer the very first time only. This is actually the fastest interactive app I have seen from DirecTV. Maybe they are getting better at this?

I switched to USA this morning and I noticed the red button come up so I checked out the medal count.
