I can get the power to work on my remote but every time I program it the power works but not the volume. I can get the volume to work but as soon as I hit "it worked" on the screen it clears out the volume. But the power still works.

Thinking about adding a Gemini. I tried googling and couldn’t find the answer. When I’m traveling I at times like to look at my recordings on my dvr. It’s a Genie. Some things are not available. My question is with the Gemini will I be able to access more recordings,or is there no difference. thanks
