best streaming devices, since they are budget-friendly, responsive, and offer access to a vast array of applications and games. They are also straightforward to install and shift between televisions, as they function autonomously. Thus, it’s easy to transport them with you on vacations and outings to enjoy a uniform and dependable entertainment experience.
Although you normally don’t need to re-sync a Fire TV Remote with the streaming stick when switching TVs, the Fire TV Stick’s Equipment Control feature might necessitate a reconfiguration if the streaming device is connected to a different TV, particularly if it’s a different model from the one you originally used.
Equipment Control is based on an HDMI standard known as Consumer Electronics Control (CEC), and it lets you manage devices like your TV, soundbar, and AV receiver. It’s only accessible on Fire TV Stick versions that include a remote with power and volume controls. While all recent Fire TV Sticks are equipped with a remote featuring these controls, earlier models, like Fire TV Stick Lite and Fire TV Stick, did not include the same remote. This feature will also be non-functional if CEC is not available or turned off on your TV. Nonetheless, with both CEC and Equipment Control support enabled, configuring your Fire TV remote to operate a new TV’s features is relatively straightforward. Here’s how to proceed.
