April 2026 update terrible - need ability to record Other Ways to Watch episodes
New interface is terrible for anyone who manages their Upcoming Recordings. Ways to Watch feature does NOT allow you to record.... Instead you now have to search, hunt, and peck your way through the guide to do each separately. Please fix and bring back the ability to record different/later airings

New Program Guide
We tried setting up a recording for a series to see only new episodes, and the icon to show the status doesn't appear. Going back to edit for all episodes didn't work, either. This new guide is has too many bugs and shouldn't have been pushed out.

Recently when I connected any of my bluetooth headphones to my Gemini box, the satellite feed froze, and if I change the channel, all I get is a black screen with the channel information header. The apps work fine. Tech support sent me a replacement box and said that the updated firmware would solve

Please bring back the old List
The new Direct Tv Menu (Edited per community guidelines)! I can’t find programs that I have recorded. I can no longer watch the 10 Law and Order shows that it shows I have recorded.

After 18 years we canceled service and Directv found a way to screw us over. So much for treating long term customers with respect.
We canceled our service after approximately 18 years due to high monthly bills. A few days later we checked and the service was still active, so we called to rectify.

Changes to DTV Programming Features
I hope Mr. John Abzidir reads my new post today, 7/6/26. Another lie when it comes to explanations about changes in DTV programming features (Cast & Crew and Ways to Watch). No one asked for this change.
