What remote can turn on my NON-Roku TV?
I use a Roku Streaming Stick with my NON-Roku TV, and my remote isn't working very well (buttons fail to work, or get stuck being pressed).
I want a replacement, but none of the currently available remotes appear to be able to control TV power unless you have a Roku TV.
From what I can gather, the only way to control my TV with a Roku remote is to use the RC-FA1 model that includes an IR transmitter, which originally came with my Roku Stick, however they aren't available from the manufacturer anymore, or as knockoffs.
Do any other models of Roku remote turn on or off a normal TV?
All three Roku Voice remotes will control your Roku Stick once paired, and all can control non-Roku tv's by IR by programming your tv brand in. The two cheapest remotes carried by Roku will not control your tv, one $9.99 is strictly a Roku TV IR remote, only controls Roku tv's period. The $14.99 IR Roku Simple remote doesn't control tv at all. So, the remotes that will work for you are the $19,99 voice remote, or the $29.99 rechargeable with headphones. And there is the newest $29.99 rechargeable backlighted without headphone jack. You can buy them from Amazon too. About the same prices.
