Did they remove use TV remote to control the Xbox?

Have you tried resyncing the TV remote to the TV? Your Xbox connection shouldnt remove all TV controls.

[Mod removed] The point is that you can control everything with one remote - do you call the idea of a universal remote stupid? No, because it's useful to have everything controllable from one place. Before the xbox one I needed 3 remotes
- an Xbox 360 controller for gaming; my TV's own control for switching it on and changing the volume, and my virgin media remote for watching TV. Now I only really use 2 thanks to the xbox one, but I'd like to only need to use 1.

Steps taken this morning:

-Powered on console (receiver came on, TV did not)

-Manually turned on TV using a remote control

-Went into settings and removed TV

-Re-added TV using model number entry

-Closed out of settings to Home

-Powered down console by holding power button (Receiver did NOT shut off, nor did TV)

-Unplugged console, set timer for 60 seconds

-Manually turned off receiver and TV

-Powered on console (receiver came on, TV did not)

-Went into settings again, changed Device Control power options from On/Off to Toggle

-Closed out Settings to Home

-Powered down console by holding power button (Receiver and TV again did NOT shut off)

-Unplugged console, set timer for 60 seconds

-Powered on console (receiver and TV stayed on as normal but TV SHOULD have toggled off, yeah?)

-Went into settings just to look around

-Used controller to send "Turn off console" command

-Receiver turned off, TV did not

-Manually turned off TV using remote (note the TV accepts both Power Off and Toggle commands from remote)

-Used controller to power on Xbox

-Receiver powered on as expected

-TV did not power on

-Used controller to send "Turn off console" command (yes, I remember how to do this without the TV being on)

-Left for work because it's that time, haha

Please help!

Hey guys, I see that some are trying to get the remote to change channels on your tv. Well the media remote only controls the tvs functions of power on/off, volume up/down, mute and TV input.

Then why bother putting number buttons and a channel up/down button on the remote? I'm disappointed that I have to use two remotes for my TV/Xbox.

@Turvey, which remote did you purchase that works on both your TV/Xbox? I have a Philips/White Console.

Need help connecting PDP media remote. Tried everything from PDP’s website and my tv’s website but nothing ia working. Please help

Are you trying to use the remote to directly control the TV? It is my understanding that the remote only directly connects to the Xbox which could then be able to control the TV. Without an Xbox, can this remote be used at all?
