You need to connect it to the HDMI port on your TV which says ARC or eARC. Then you need to turn on HDMI-CEC in the TV settings (not firestick settings).
@@s.b6729 It’s just fine, don’t worry. They have the same size. The 4k has better compatibility. I had 2 echo dot 3. They only works with 4k not 4k max.
Hey just a tip for future videos, you should write a script or at least an outline of one with talking points, rather than just reading the text on the screen. It makes the video feel amateurish, and obviously you don’t have a massive production budget or whatever, just some constructive criticism. When you read the words on the screen in a tone that suggests you know a lot about the product and are teaching us about it, it just doesn’t work as we are also reading the words along with you. Does that make sense? Hope you don’t take this the wrong way man, thanks for the vid anyway, my stick is arriving today and this video was interesting
Fire TV sticks will also work on non 4k TV's such as 720p and 1080p as long as the TV has an HDMI port. Of course, you won't get 4k, but it will look and work great. I have a fire TV stick on a 720p, 1080p, and a 4k TV. Even works great on my 12 year old Samsung Plasma TV.
This is not a big deal, nor a negative. You only need to connect to the micro usb port once, and that is just for power. The actual streaming connection is HDMI. You're not using this as a charger, plus you never have to touch it again unless you upgrade to a newer fire TV stick or if you get another TV and move the fire TV stick to the new TV.
