> Too Many Remotes
Two remotes was the moment I stopped watching TV altogether at third of her age.
Am I pointing the right device? Is the battery in any of them out? Is the bloody device not reacting of just waking up? The cable box is connected to the TV aux or it's a "smart" one connected to one of the HDMI aux'es? All this mess to watch mostly ads.
- duckmysick 3y agoFully agree. Why is this even a thing? A tv remote can toggle power on/off, change the volume, has up/down/left/right/enter/back/play/pause/numerical keys. Why can't I use the tv remote to operate other devices connected to the TV? Actually scratch that - why can't I use the power button on the TV remote to power other devices? Instead, I have to use different remotes. I can't imagine a scenario where I want to operate my DVD player while my TV is off. That's where the smart TVs missed the mark. When I press mute on my TV remote, it should be smart enough to figure out how to talk to other devices to mute everything.
