TV remote control

Hey there, Archer!

I'm sorry to see any issues with the Xbox beta app for Android. Because it works fine in the regular app, you will want to submit feedback through the beta app to get the information to the right teams. This will let them know that something might not be
working properly. We are unable to assist with beta/preview items here on the regular support forums. Thanks for understanding!

The official news post about the remote *only* says that Kinect is used for IR blasting your TV and your AV receiver. It doesn't say that Kinect is used to receive the remote's signals for controlling the console itself.

Given that, and given that the console does have its own IR receiver, I'd assume that control of the console itself is direct using the remote. Kinect is just needed for TV/AV control, as the remote does not send signals to those directly.

Remote > IR > Console = console control.

Remote > IR > Console---Kinect > IR > TV & AV = TV & AV control

Can you still control it over the infrared signal?

Meaning with my TV remote? Yes. As well as my cable box remote, which controls the TV over HDMI.

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?
