DTV STREAMING with older not-smart TV
I have an older JVC TV that is not a smart TV but does have HDMI in my bedroom. I want to switch from DTV SATELLITE to DTV STREAMING. What can I purchase to make this TV work with DTV STREAMING?

You can use any streaming device, like Roku, Amazon Fire, Apple TV, or DirecTV Stream boxes.

All streaming boxes (Roku, Firestick, even the specific DIRECTV STREAM box) connect by HDMI. Just the same as your satellite box, game consoles, or other similar devices.
The two services are separate. You must call DirecTV to cancel. Be aware service and billing do not stop early. So be careful when you start streaming service if you don't want them overlapping. DirecTV boxes you ship back to them if still returnable models.
Also make sure to check the channel lineup. Even packages that seem to have the same name are not guaranteed to have the same channels between satellite and streaming-only.
