Hello,
Is it possible to switch between two TV channels on the fly? In WMC it was the OK button after selecting second channel. Very convenient to avoid commercials in live tv. ;)
Thank's

I'd like the "Back" button to work, too, for the same reason. Flick between what I'm watching and the footy to check the scores every now and then ;D

Agree, back button like with WMC would streamline TV usage. My HP Media Center remote has a button that looks like a TV with a play button in the middle. When I press it I get the message "The TV Channel 0 was not found." Thought that might be it but no luck.

On my remote I can hit the "+" "-" buttons to change TV channels on the fly - but sometimes it causes the picture to freeze (going from SD to HD and vise-versa). I found that it is the RO+HQ setting (using MadVR) that is causing the issue. I then setup Custom Video Mode to use EVR for TV Viewing. Note that this freezing issue may have been fixed in .201+, I haven't retested. But it takes MC 4 or 5 seconds to start playing a new channel so switching back and forth to skip TV commercials doesn't offer much of an experience except 10 seconds of silence.
EDIT: Sorry I didn't understand/read your question (title) completely, your asking about a "previous channel" button, not switching channels on the fly.
