How does one find program info on the show they are watching?

Jump to solution

We use Roku with Youtube TV.  Is there any way to simulate the "info" button on Xfinitiy that provides program info  on the show you are watching, such as cast, date made (for movies), description of program, etc?

Thanks for the inquiry.

For more information about that channel's features and functionality, you'll want to contact YoutubeTV support directly to inquire further. Many channels on Roku are developed and maintained by the channel provider themselves. 

 

Thanks,

No one said anything about YouTube. This thread is about YouTube TV. Regardless, Google is the provider of both channels/apps.

On my remote, while watching a movie, I press the “up” arrow. “Get more info” appears. I press “ok” again and there is information about the movie , cast etc. The back button will take you back to the movie.
