Can you use any type of Roku remote control with any Roku device?

No, Roku tv IR remotes are worthless on console Roku's like express, premiere, or Ultra, which take IR remotes but use a completely different IR code set then what Roku tv use. Console Roku IR remotes and Roku tv IR remotes are both worthless on Roku Sticks which only work with Wifi Roku remotes. There are older bluetooth only remotes that are completely useless on roku made in the last 8 years.
