Formovie Projector Remote Codes

Hello,

  I've recently purchased a Formovie ultra short-throw projector and would like to synch it to my directv remote, but the Formovie brand isn't listed.  Do you know if this will be added soon?

I've recently purchased a new ForMovie 4K ultra short-throw projector.  Previously I had an Optoma 4K ultra short-throw projector and it worked great with the DirecTV 4K channels.  After switching to the ForMovie projector, DirecTV says that the projector is not capable of 4K, which is incorrect. I tried hitting the red button on my Genie hoping that would reset everything but it did not.  What do I need to do to get DirecTV to recognize my new project as 4K?

Unlikely. The cheap DirecTV remotes simply don't control every device on the planet. You'll need a more capable Univeral Remote.

I had two distinct, separate questions that have been merged.  They aren't really related. What's up with that?
