4k gemini box

Is the Gemini able to access recordings on the same network like from the dvr of the Genie and is it able to play content in 1080p?

The Gemini is a client and like all other clients is connected to the Genie to access recordings and use a tuner, they don't use your home network.  The only 1080P programs DTV has are a few PPV movies, all broadcast channels use 1080I or 720, any 1080P programs will be sent by the Gemini if selected.

Thank you. I was told by a directv rep on the phone that a Gemini is able to produce 1080p quality on every HD channel so that is why I chose to get one along with a new 24 month commitment. So that was inaccurate information, am I correct?  If so, I have until Wednesday to cancel the gemini and professional installation. Thanks again.

Most DTV H and HR and C receivers can upscale to 1080p so the Gemini is no different.
