How to stop syncing channel changes across devices?

New DTVS user here, recently migrated from U-verse and generally loving it but have one complaint/question. I have 3 TVs at home with the osprey box on my main one, a Roku, and a Fire Stick. Not sure if the type of device matters here. I’ve noticed that when I change the channel on one TV, then when I turn on another, it automatically starts on the new channel. This is not the behavior I prefer. I want each TV to stay on the channel I left it on. Is there a setting to change this?

No settings. The channel setting is based on the account, not the device. Since they are no profiles, every thing is based on the account holder, not the device.

Did you read my first reply? You don't need to repeat your issue again. Channels are based on the account holder, which is used on all devices. There are no profiles, so the last channel displayed is the last one you watched on any device.

Mr Peter repeated his issue to be able to insert spam links, not because he did not read your reply.
