Gemini Remote

Does the Gemini remote control have a "previous channel" button like the typical RC73 DirecTV Satellite remote has?

Great.   Thanks!  I assume on Satellite it works the same as what I have today on the RC73 remote?

I realize this is the satellite forum, but...

Do you know if this also works the same on the DTV STREAM service?  If I had DTV Stream could I quickly/easily switch back and forth between 2 channels?

The remote should work the same it did on the RC73 remote, and it is able to pair with your TV. Yes, that same remote is used for DIRECTV STREAM as well.

Hi @User5 Yes, you can find this option in your Gemini remote using the button that says "prev". More information can be found here 👉 https://www.directv.com/support/satellite/article/000091430. DIRECTV is here for you. Gloria, DIRECTV Community Specialist.

Correct! It works the same way. Once you press the "Prev" button, the receiver will go to the previous channel. On DIRECTV Stream, it will be more up to the receiver/remote you choose. For example, the Gemini will work the same way, but Roku devices, on the other hand, may not have these functions. You can still rest assured that whichever one you choose, DIRECTV will guide you along the way. Juan, DIRECTV Community Specialist.
