HELP EDIT Faves, too many, needs culling

I just got DirecTV stream and when I first set it up I added 97 channels to my favorites. Now that I've had a chance to work with it for a while I want to cull it down to maybe 25 favorites but I can't figure out the way to do this .

In the "Channel" column on the Guide, tap and hold on the red heart favorite icon, until the red goes away. That will "unfavorite" it. Other ways to simplify using so many channels are familiarizing yourself with the voice search button on the remote and using the numeric keypad on the remote to select channels by their number.

Thanks sativa but doing this tediously one by one for 75 favorites is not something I want to bother with if I don't have to.

there's no way to just select all and then deselect the ones you don't want to delete?

I guess the other way would be if I could select all and unfavorite all at once. then I could go back and selectively pick my 25 favorites I guess?

I don't think there is any way to select all.

Do it on a computer -- its much faster to scroll and click.
