Using the Remote

GO BACK Moves you back and forth between the last two channels selected in either DIRECTV mode or TV mode. For example, if you have been viewing both DIRECTV and TV channels (and thus using both the DIRECTV and TV “modes”), pressing GO BACK while watching a DIRECTV channel moves you back to the last DIRECTV channel you viewed. Pressing it while watching a TV channel moves you to the last TV channel you viewed. In the menu system, pressing GO BACK returns you to the previous menu screen.
