I did finally find what was needed to make my older infrared Vizio remote-control (effectively) control the Fire Stick. It was necessary to enable the HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) option in the Vizio TV settings. Evidently CEC passes through HDMI signals the remote clicks and the Fire Stick responds to those meaningful to it such as the Select and Up and Down arrows. Missing is the Back key to go back through selections in steps. This should be usable for other brand TVs and remotes.
I'm sorry to hear that you were having trouble connecting your Vizio remote. If you had seen one of my previous videos earlier, you would have been able to resolve the problem more quickly as this tip was covered in one of my earlier videos ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eEdIdfEKqQk.html.
Hi Tanya. You make great videos and are very knowledgeable about Fire Sticks so I have a question relating to the first one I bought just weeks ago. I bought the 4K Max (2nd gen) for an old 32-inch Vizio TV located such that I couldn't get my cable system cable to it. The Fire Stick and its remote work fine. I also found an old Vizio TV remote I have not only worked for the usual On-Off and Volume control and such for the TV but also controlled most of the Fire Stick functions (no vocal input of course) with the Select and navigation arrow keys allowing me to use it as an alternate remote to control both TV and Fire Stick. But yesterday I moved the Fire Stick to a new larger TV in my bedroom and found that the old remote now no longer has any control of the Fire Stick. Before moving I did go into Settings and Equipment control and click on something I thought I needed to do before the move. Maybe that had some effect, but I don't know how to get back what I had before. Thanks for any help with this problem.
@@FireTVSticks Thanks for responding. I lost a remote recently due to batteries leaking so I thought it a good thing to have a possible backup remote if my Fire Stick remote failed. Other people might also benefit in a similar situation if there is some way to get old TV remotes to serve this purpose instead of waiting for a costly replacement to come. The old TV I had the Fire Stick first on was the Vizio E320VL LCD HDTV I bought over 13 years ago. I had no other HDMI inputs used on it except for the Fire Stick. The old Vizio remote I found controlled both the TV and Fire Stick was one I inherited from someone throwing out their TV, so I don't know what that TV was. The remote has no nomenclature on it except "Vizio" on the back. However, I found one on sale on eBay that looks exactly like this remote and has the title "XRT010 Remote Control for Vizio LED HDTV TV." It has no voice control or indication it's for Smart TVs. I never tried my original remote for the TV so I can't say if that would work the same as this remote. Before removing the Fire Stick from the old TV I went to the Fire Stick settings and did the sequence "Equipment Control-Manage Equipment-TV-Change TV" which has the wording "To change the equipment that Fire TV controls, select this option." I wonder now if I should have done this after moving the Stick. The new TV I moved it to is a Vizio V505-J09 4K Smart TV. The Fire Stick remote does control the TV volume so does know it's on a Vizio TV. The old Vizio remote now only works for Volume and TV controls. Thanks for any help with this.
