"Previous Channel" button - aedv - 2014-12-24

On my Comcast cable box, I was able to flip between two channels by hitting the "previous channel" button. Thus, if I'm watching TBS and ESPN, I hit the same button and it goes back and forth between those two. This is a pretty common feature of cable boxes and TVs.

However, I have not been able to figure out this feature in Kodi. I'm using an HDHomerun Prime with ServerWMC on an openELEC box, but I doubt any of that matters. I've looked through the action IDs and I don't even see any action ID that would perform such a function. I've searched this forum and Google in general but have not come upon a solution.

Is there one? Having to key in the previous channel number each time is very annoying.

Thanks.

Try button "0" on your remote.

Wow, I cannot believe how easy that was. Thanks!
