DirecTV adding Mix Channels
January 30, 2026



DirecTV is rolling out new Mix Channels across the US, giving customers even more ways to keep essential programming on screen at the same time. With the launch of Food Mix and expanded Weather Mix options, viewers can follow what they desire without hopping between channels when the day gets busy.

From cooking inspiration to up-to-the-minute forecasts, these new Mix Channels bundle related networks into curated views designed to make multitasking TV easier.


Mix Channels let viewers watch multiple live networks at once on a single screen, eliminating the need to flip back and forth through the guide. With one Mix Channel, customers can:

Watch multiple live feeds at once
Choose which feed’s audio plays with a quick click
Pop any channel into full screen
Keep captions synced to what they’re watching
The Food Mix Channel serves up inspiration from top culinary networks and includes content from Food Network, Tastemade, America’s Test Kitchen and Sweet Escapes. And viewers can stay on top of forecasts and breaking weather coverage with expanded Weather Mix options, offering both two-tile and three-tile views, depending on package.
