Direct TV Stream Remote
we paired our remote with the Sony TV and it worked fine for almost a year. Now every time we turn on the TV with the DT Remote we are asked if we want the remote to be paired with the tv. we have gone through ever setting, repaired the remote using the exact tv model and it still asks. WHY??

Are you using the Gemini Air receiver or the older DIRECTV STREAM Gemini model C71KW? Have you tried restarting the Gemini once pairing has completed so that it perhaps changes settings and doesn't show the pop-up anymore?
The way I am interpreting this, it appears to be a bug with either the software or with your specific Gemini. First thing to do is try restarting it, then you can try checking for any new updates by going to Settings.

Outside doing a factory reset on the box, I have nothing else for you to try. You may try to contact support by phone, chat, or social media (Reddit, Facebook, or Twitter).

Oh, was not aware you have other boxes and they were OK. I would verify that they all are on the same software version in case it was due to an update. If so, then I definitely do a factory reset. Watch out in case the others are updated or not.

It's understandable that you were disappointed when your remote stopped working after a year without any problems. We want to review your account and start working on it. We are sending you a PM to continue with the assistance. Andres, DIRECTV Community Specialist
