Totally agree, although just as an anecdotal experience: I was very surprised this weekend when I set up a soundbar with my TV, which immediately recognized it and did some configuration which allowed me to control the soundbar volume with my normal TV remote.
- vladvasiliu 4y agoHad a similar good experience a while ago with a Fire TV. The remote can be configured to control my audio amplifier, although it's a rather obscure brand [0] and not even an AV receiver at that (it only does stereo audio, and has no HDMI or video inputs / pass-through). --- [0] They are, however, very open and publish the remote codes.
- napolux 4y agoYeah, but what if you want to control just something more complicated than the volume or basic stuff? You'll need its own remote.
