[Almost useless info] FireTV remote (no microphone) works on Shield

by plaisthos

One thing about developing Androids apps is that you start collecting weird devices. Normal persons probably would not buy multiple devices of the same type..

The Nvidia Shield remote does not seem to work on the Fire TV stick.

The latest fire TV and stick voice remotes also work. They are wifi so just go in to add devices and pair it up via wifi not Bluetooth..

How do you get it connected? I can't stand the Shield remote.

Its not useless info at all. The Shield TV remote has like 4 buttons.

The FireTV remote has many more, and several of the functions work directly after pairing with no additional setup needed (though you can if you want to)

Particularly useful with Kodi.

Both are Bluetooth, so I'd figure both work (sans mike). I paired the shield remote to my phone once and it worked okay.
