4k + Gemini + HR44

If I replace a Genie client with a Gemini, would I gain access to Directv’s 4K channels on the TV that uses the Gemini? I have HR44 on main TV and a non-4K Genie client on second TV. I do not care which of the TVs gets 4K. 

(I realize I would have to ask for 4K to be authorized but would I also need to swap to another Genie model too?)

Nope, the HR44 can't get the 4K channels.  You need an HR54 or HS17 for that.  The Gemini can stream 4K content from the internet.

Thanks. My TVs are Rokus so I’ll stick with the minis. No real advantage to the Gemini for me at this time. Appreciate the info.
