Thank you so much, so many things I read said you can't use a universal remote for the firestick! Did this on my Vizio and right in the system settings there was a cec option! 😁

That's excellent! Yes I don't know why that info is out there. Unfortunately I don't think Roku has this option.. ☹️

@JLPicard440 Год назад

No usually it's pretty straight forward. Does your remote control the menu arrow directions from the TV properly? The only ones that I haven't gotten to work are the ones that you can't find anything about the CEC in the menu. For example like you said, the SIMPLINK is LGs version of that.

@JLPicard440 2 месяца назад

HI! I don't know about the xfinity flex. I am not sure what kind of remote they use (IR OR RF). If they use IR then there's good chance it'll work. As far as the fire stick if your TV has HDMI-CEC capability then yes it should work. There's no code for the fire stick itself. It works through the TVs HDMI port.

I have a Roku TV, I have CEC enabled as my spectrum remote can control the roku, but when I click over to the Amazon stick the spectrum remote wont work. When I go to the CEC devices I see the Amazon Firestick listed, but theres no option to like click it, or anything its just listed... I have a fire stick attached to the hdmi port, and I just click over from the roku remote and watch, and have to use the firestick to navigate the firestick. How do I get my spectrum remote to control the firestick or do I need another universal remote, ideally an IR one? And the remote u linked says doesnt work with firestick or roku.

@JLPicard440 3 года назад

It probably says it doesn't work with fire stick because through the IR part of the controller it won't work. When using the CEC to control the fire stick you're actually using the TV part of the remote to control the fire stick. I don't understand if you're seeing the fire stick listed in the list of inputs why you can't click on it. But yea, you need to select it as the input or it's not going to work.

What about rca universal remote

@JLPicard440 2 года назад

Yes it should work. If the remote is controlling the TV it should work.

I have a magnavox TV and don't see cec option anywhere :(

@JLPicard440 2 года назад

Sometimes it's not called CEC.. I think Magnavox calls it Fun-Link. You may have to consult your manual to see how to navigate to it. Also not all TVs support this, so keep that in mind.

I can't direct you thru your menu since I can't see the TV, but I believe Vizio actually calls CEC, CEC. If you have the book maybe it'll tell you?

Interesting,.. it usually will just work. I don't have a vizio here to try it on. Maybe try unplugging the Fire-Stick and plug it back in? Also, maybe your TV will only work via one of the HDMI inputs.. try another input and see if that helps.
