Firestick and Sky Stream

If I'm watching a channel on sky stream (hdmi 1)and switch to the firestick (hdmi 2), I can't switch back to the channel using the sky remote. I can only press the home button and  then manually select the channel from the tv guide Is there a way that the  same channel I was previously viewing is displayed when I switch back to sky?

Hi @josh+prior 

 

There is no button on the puck to change TV input. You can either switch using the TV remote and leaving the puck on and on the channel (but this isn't fool proof as it will auto stand by etc).

 

However when you are on your home screen instead of going down to TV guide press the left key and you will see "recent channels" and "recent apps" a press of the center key will take you there directly.
