12.5 Update Screwed Up Directv Remote

Everytime Roku updates on my TVs, something gets screwed up.  This time, 12.5 has rendered my Directv remote useless.  It will only allow me to turn on the TV, but nothing else works.  Volume, Menu, Input, etc.

Does the Roku team work for Outlook?  They can also F up a good thing.

Re: 12.5 Update Screwed Up Directv Remote

My Roku TV TCL stopped recognizing my directv remote control, I reconfigured it and now it recognizes everything again but the up and down arrows only work from left to right 😞

Happened after upgrading to Roku OS 12.5

Sorry, I use a translator because my English is poor.

Yes, the new code doesn't work perfectly, but it does work better than nothing.  Maybe, just maybe, they'll get this fixed and going back to the old code, 11756, will have us back to normal.
