Just made the switch from Firetv Stick to Onn 4K and the remote can’t be programmed to turn on/off my tv

by secinvestor

Just made the switch and followed the Troypoint tutorials to modify and I absolutely love this device especially for $20 only issue I’ve had is that I’m unable to pair my Westinghouse VR-4090 I know it’s an older tv but it has the option to try and program it but all the options it gave me to try and in the end it just said “looks like Onn TV can’t control this device” seems kind of dismissive as my FireTV and Roku etc were able to control all of my devices just fine. Do I have to get an alternative remote or something? I just want to be able to turn my tv on and off with one remote

Does your TV settings allow you to turn on CEC control?

Go to the onn settings and change the remote buttons to cec

I had to do the button programming a couple times for the tv in our bedroom to turn on/off correctly.

Yell 'turn of my tv' at a smart speaker. It's way more fun!
