Onn 4k Streamer Remote options?

by Not_Brilliant_3968

Is the remote for the Onn 4k streamer box a RF remote? Is there a way I can get it to control my ancient ass phillips soundbar? My phillips sound bar does its own thing its connected to the tv via an optical audio cable it doesn't support the fancy HDMI features of newer sound bars.

I currently have some crappy GE universal remote that was like $5 at walmart and it controls my TCL Tv and my Phillips sound bar just fine would this work to control the Onn Stream box?

Thanks for any help.

I believe it's Bluetooth for communication with the box and IR or CEC for TV controls.

Yep, just enable HDMI-CEC on the box and the TV and your remote will beam to the TV and your TV will control the box. The d-pad and back button will work fine, at the very least.
