Does the Roku Pro Remote have the capability to
find a specific channel with voice commands?
so I have Directv, Hulu, and Sling. I just purchased the $30 voice remote Pro. My problem is if I ask Roku to play ESPN for example, It tells me to download the app. I have ESPN in 2 of the 3 above stream companies.
is there a way to setup the remote so I can say “Hey Roku, play ESPN on Directv.” My result is the above. It brings me out of the Directv app to the main Home Screen and it Tells me I need to download ESPN app. My purpose of buying this remote was to be able to change channels without using the remote (which in my opinion is sub par). I also tried the same command for Hulu and Sling to no avail.
any help would be appreciated as I can’t find anyone asking my question(s) anywhere on the web.
