    Media remote can't change volume on TV or control power


    I have the IR emitter connected and still can't control anything on the tv even though when I did the set up. I says it was automatic and still nothing.

    How adjust PC volume from 360 remote with TV support enabled?

    Hi, once the "Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote" has been enabled to operate a TV set (to turn the TV on/off etc.) the remote's volume buttons ALWAYS control the TV volume. How can I use the remote to control the PC volume? Regardless of if the remote's TV
    button is green or red, the volume buttons control the TV volume.

    I am using this remote to control Windows Media Center on a regular PC, and really need to control the PC volume, not the TV volume.

    PC volume can be controlled if I do not enable the remote's TV support, but then I also lose the ability to turn the TV on/off :-(

    Question about upcoming Xbox one remote

    From the Microsoft post today about the remote...

    "The Media Remote can also control TV/Receiver power and volume through Kinect"

    So it look like it does control the Xbox via the infrared receivers on the Kinect.

    xbox one media remote control tv volume WITHOUT Kinect ... possible?

    No, it's not a universal remote: (www.xbox.com/.../media-remote)

    The remote controls TV/receiver power and volume through Kinect, or an IR extender cable (cable not included).

    You need Kinect or IR Extenders.

    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.. Please take a read on it more

    here    .

    @Superman To turn on the Xbox you will need to use the power button for the Xbox located to the right of the silver Xbox button.

    Xbox one media remote won't control TV

    Well, no matter what I try, the official Microsoft Media Remote just won't control my TV's volume. I thought maybe it was my off-brand Sanyo TV but tried it on my other LG TV and it behaved the same. The Kinect can control the TV's volume with voice commands,
    but not the media remote.

    Returning this and I will try a third party remote and hope for better functionality.
