Well, I’m glad it’s working again on the fire TV. I have the very same one that 
you do. And when I tried it a couple or three months ago, it didn’t work well 
at all. I couldn’t tell what I was on. It was a real mess. I really wanted it 
to work, because I really wanted to get pack 12 TV. It’s not available on 
DIRECTV unfortunately. Oh well. Maybe next year.
