Some Roku enhanced remotes incorporate both wireless and infrared (IR) technologies to seamlessly control your Roku streaming player and aspects of your TV. Once you set up your Roku player and Roku enhanced remote, you can control volume and power on/off for select TV brands and models.

You can use the product comparison chart to determine which current products include a voice remote with TV power and volume buttons.

Can I use my Roku enhanced remote to control other devices?

Your Roku enhanced remote is designed to control volume and power on your TV. It cannot directly control other devices connected to your TV, such as an audio/video receiver (AVR) or sound bar.

However, your TV may be able to issue volume commands to your AVR or sound bar using a technology called HDMI CEC. In these cases, your Roku enhanced remote can indirectly control volume for your AVR or sound bar. For this to work, all your devices connected via HDMI must support HDMI CEC and it must be enabled on all devices. To learn if your TV, AVR or sound bar supports this technology refer to the device's documentation. Be aware that manufacturers may refer to HDMI CEC by a different name.
