Remote won’t work with Vizio tv
This remote stopped controlling my Vizio tv volume, power and Mute . getting close to switching my stream providers.. this is getting ridiculous hopfully someone sees this I’ve tried entering different tv codes nothing seems to work. I’ve tried LG codes and mostly all the others and nothing seems to work again it’s a Vizio tv. I wonder is Amazon stick or google chrome is having this problem I’m hearing it’s happened to a lot of people but when you try to fix it I have to type this 140 character long rant that I hate to do but for some reason I can never hit the 140 and I keep pissing myself off even more..
Did you ever configure your Remote for Vizio? Or did it just work? I suspect the latter.
If so, that means it has been controlling via CEC. As an owner of multiple Vizio TVs, I consider their implementation of CEC to be problematic. Sometimes, it doesn't work right. And that's not with Roku devices. I have Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV, and Chromecast. Vizio CEC sometimes goes wonky with them all, and then suddenly works.
An option is to use the menu system to configure the remote to work with your TV. To my understanding, that will allow the remote to send IR signals rather than communicate via CEC for those functions. Perhaps Tivoburkee, atc98092, makaiguy, or renojim can correct me. But follow the suggestions of Tivoburkee and see if that resolves it.
