 The previous channel button in Live TV doesn't look at the actual last
 channel that a user may have watched, only the last channel on the current
 video source.

 For example.

 Tuner 1 - Can tune channels 2-99
 Tuner 2 - Can tune channels 2-1000

 If you start live TV on Tuner 1, and you are on channel 2, and then you
 manually tune to channel 1000 which leverages tuner 2.  After you land on
 tune 2, the previous channel button will leverage whatever the last
 channel was that tuner 2 was tuned to, not channel 2 which was the last
 channel the user actually watched.

 Proper UX (and every other TV & STB in the world) would say that the
 previous channel should always be whatever the last channel the user was
 watching regardless of which tuner the backend was/is leveraging.  This
 should be transparent to the user.
