Roku Streaming stick can change TV inputs

I have the ultra lt from years past and on my home screen i select the tips and tricks icon that is installed by default. so i clicked on that and then scrolled the different tip options till i came to a tip that says there is a menu called tv inputs under settings on your roku stick. that roku video shows there guy scrolling through the sticks settings and finding the inputs... and setting up this to change inputs to his pc or gameox. he sets it up so you click on a home screen icon to select tv inputs. but doesnt show it working by buttons on his remote.

on my roku ultra that setting is not available. so i thought about updating my stick but then found an online video saying tv input changing is only available on roku tvs.

i dont know why this tip is on mu roku stick since he says hes doing this on a roku tv

so i do ask is this option available on newer sticks. and why does the official roku help video on my home screen show the guy using a typical roku remote to set up tv input swithching. the video was very graphic showing this done but if that option is available on his stick he doesnt mention the stick model.  the help video should be seen on any roku home screen, after selecting the tips and tricks shortcut that then offers several help videos.
