Directv App
Hi, how do I view more info for a channel when browsing the guide? Sometimes, there is additional information at the top of screen and I’m unable to view “more info”. I’m using both the AppleTV app and the streaming app on my Samsung tv.

DirecTV Roku app startup
Is there a way to make the new DirecTV Roku app start up to a channel? I hate the way it starts with a screen of previously watched channels. It's too much like Youtube TV which has a horrible interface.
