Using Voice Remote 54.0

[wmw007]

I'm just leaning the remote. If I say "Watch channel 4.01" my Hopper 3 goes to channel 401, not 4.01.
How do I get it to go to channel 4.01? The voice-to-text at the bottom of the screen understands me correctly.

The voice control doesn't work for locals or channel numbers. You have to say "ESPN", etc

I think this is one of those commands that just doesn't work well. Dish doesn't do OTA channels all that well in this respect. You can do this and get there fairly well: say Go to channel 4. When the channel changes to 4 press your channel up or down (depending on how you have your guide set up) one time and you will get channel 4.01.

Thanks for the workaround and the disappointing news. As a former programmer, I don't think it would be that difficult to implement, especially since the speech-to-text interpreted my wishes correctly.
