Navigating Directv stream on a firestick with a Harmony remote

Wanting to use my Harmony universal remote to navigate the Directv stream channel guide.  Specifically using the ch +/- button to scroll a page at a time in the channel guide.  Can step up & down 1 channel at at time now using the arrow button.  Recently switched from Directv satellite to Directv Stream &  am used to scrolling a page at a time in the guide with my Harmony universal remote.

Hi, @hartmans2587. The DIRECTV STREAM app on Firestick has limited remote functions with the Harmony remote. Thank you for your feedback. We'll forward your suggestion to the right team for review.

Thanks for your reply!  So what's the best way to access the Directv Stream & be able to have the most control functionality?  Again, I used the satellite service for 30 years & am used to that environment.  I have heard that Directv maybe has a HDMI device?? Have a Vizio tv & it can't download the app so that's why the fire stick.

Thanks,

Steve

The optimal method to maintain maximum control over features is to acquire the Gemini device, allowing you to utilize the Gemini remote. Visit DIRECTV Gemini | Our Best TV Experience At No Extra Cost for additional information.
