No. It splits the signal to the from the antenna to the Genie. You still need a Genie to put a picture onto the second TV. If you want to watch the same show on the second tv, as is being shown on the tv connected to the Genie, you could use an HDMI splitter.

It worked for me bought my daughter a tv for her room & used the splitter & ran the wire. Only thing she watches whatever is on that one box it's ran from. She's only 3 so cartoons it is.

Yes it can.i have my directv hr34 genie receiver loaded on this remote all commands work fine. And it can be taught commands manually if you prefer.

If your TV is Digital which most of them are, then you only need to connect the antenna in the back of the TV on the "antenna in" outlet and then with your remote perform a channel scan. If you have the old kind of (TV's not digital ) then you will need a digital converter box

I think a remote for a Digital Stream converter box (e. g. ATSC -&gt; NTSC) might work. I've seen such work at my home.

I don't know because we do not have any clients. We have an HR34/700 Genie and an HR24/100 with no clients.DirecTV tech support should be able to answer any questions that you have concerning their receiver and client usage.

Do you have 1 single remote, now, that controls your DirectTV box and the TV? If yes- then this remote will work the same way. If you have to use separate remotes then maybe not.

Mine was "bent" when it arrived. It wouldn't work. If you have Direct TV you can have a second unit with no cost if you promise not to use both at the same time. No problem for me as we are either in one place or the other. You just have to move one of your units to the second location. With Direct you will need their "special" hook-up.It will not work otherwise.

This unit sometimes DOES need power. Devices such as the Directv Genie don't give off any power through their HDMI output, so it WILL NOT WORK without an AC Adapter supplying power to the switch. Check if your devices HDMI output ports give off 5V of power. If not, then you need an adapter. The seller is aware of this, but refuses to update their description. Also, it's not helping that reviewers are saying no power adapter is needed. Sometimes it IS needed.

You can use one for both. Unless you have the same TV at both houses, you will probably have to create different remote pages in the app.

Answer: YES. the dish itself works with everything EXCEPT the new DIRECT TV Genie system. On the Genie, the transponder must be changed out. But DIRECT TV installation man can swap that part out.

It worked for me, but keep in mind, as I learned the hard way, you will have to turn the channel on the box in the other room 75ft away. You will not be able to watch to different programs on the two tv's.

I do not know. We have a Genie, and it works together just fine. You have to set the code to match the unit you already have, but that is easy.

I'm not sure what a DirecTV Genie client is, but if it hooks up via HDMI, and your Bluray is also HDMI, then I can't see any reason this wouldn't work for you. It will even switch back and forth between devices as you turn one off and turn on the other.. I have two of these splitters and they work great!

No. When you get it, You have to call Direct TV and give them the numbers on the sticker on the bottom or the device and they will activate it and walk you through connecting it to your system.it is not stand alone receiver,It is work only with Genie receiver .
