Can I press the microphone on the remote and say “Fox News”?
My dad has difficulty using buttons on the remote. He wants to be able to press the microphone button and say things like “Fox News”, or “CBS”, or “ABC”…. Will this work if I am using the DirecTV box and associated remote?

How do I tell DTV Stream to forget my speaker

Gemini Air Remote
I moved from Uverse to DTV stream a few months ago and was given the Gemini Air dongle. I like the interface and remote better than the app, so I'd like to keep using them. And I like the remote as well, but my problem is it's not playing well with my Samsung tv/soundbar setup. Sometime
