Using Sony remotes with the new Shield?

by mightymikek

I retired my Nexus player and bought myself a Sony XBR65X930D with Android TV.

I hate the bloat and the fact it's on 5.1... Sigh

But the TV is amazing and i do like the remote.

Would it be possible to use the Sony remote with the shield?

Thanks!

with HDMI CEC yes, at least for the basic buttons, like arrows, back and ok

Yep, it works for me! I was quite surprised when I found out that the Sony remote was working on my OG Shield TV.
