Controlling Roku Ultra with a Sony Remote

I just got a Sony OLED, and while the Sony Remote can control my old Panasonic DVD Player and my old TiVo, I cannot get it to control my new Roku Ultra.  
How can I set this up?  I would prefer not having to use 2 remotes.

Re: Controlling Roku Ultra with a Sony Remote

No Roku model can be controlled via cec by oem remote like your tv remote. If the tv remote has codes and other devices for streamers like Ultra then it could control ultra it by IR. But never by hdmi-cec like dvd players and tivo's. Sorry.
