To turn off TV You need a smart plug or if your TV has eco power mode it will turn off after set timer if no signal is detected. I should've mentioned that.

To FIRE tv, not just.... "tv" missleading

If you spend enough time digging on youtube, eventually you will find exactly what you need. Thank you!!

Thank you so much! I’m late to the echo/firestick game but your video was very helpful! Thank you! I have 2 Sonys that are 11 years old but it works!

My TV doesn't even come up as an option. The firestick is connected, but that's the only visible device

I have an echo dot, but I also have a new Sony X950H smart TV. It doesn't need the Amazon Firestick. However, I don't find the skills for Alexa to control it.

Awesome video! Thanks for the simple and easy walk through.

Hi I can't find my TV under the listing of all the app in my Alexa app

thanks bud, nice one

will those work for a handicapped person (no hands) to change channels and volume hands free? she has an alexa echo as well but a non-smart tv. needs to be able to change channels and voice. thanks

So, I had this feature set up in my townhouse, but when I moved into the apartment 5 weeks ago.. both of my Echos aren't working. When u ask them to turn on or off the TV, they both reply.. "TV isn't resounding. Please check its network and power supply." The same Echo is connected to the same TV. I've rebooted the Echo and the Echo connector to the TV.. still nothing.

how do ypu customize de boot sound on your tv?

Hey guys, sorry...off topic, does anyone know if Tampatec have a service whereby they diagnose issues with TV’s and is there any way to contact them directly? Cheers Edit: I found the video he made regarding this very question but none of the issues he mentioned correspond with what my TV is doing.

I paired my echo dot with a vizio tv and it controls input, volume and power, but it won't play a show from smartcast. It asks if I ant to play it on firestick from another tv in another room.

echo input connection a smart tv any thoughts can u do a video on that

I can turn my Samsung tv off with my echo dot but I can't turn it on with it. Do I need a firestick? I thought when I first got my TV that it turned it on too but now it no longer does that.

Is my firestick not able to power on the TV with the default power supply? If so, which would you recommend

Do i really need a firestick if i want to control my smart tv with an amazon echo dot??

IT Worked!!!!!

Omg it workedddd you a real one !! Thank youuuuuuuu

my phone alexa app does not find tv, i am using fire tv 4k

I've got Alexa app built in the tv, it's switching HDMI sources, increase volume,but it won't change channel for eg "Alexa, go-to 101" my CEC is all on, strange,any suggestions 👍 Samsung QN90A thanks

I’ve done everything but when I say to open something the Alexa doesn’t notice it’s linked together

Thank you so much, this worked perfectly!

I have the Echo Show 10 and a fire stick on my tv. Alexa will turn off the tv but will not turn it on. Any ideas?

For some reason my lg tv is not working with my echo spot. I have the app on my tv and also the thinq ai on my Alexa. Any idea what is going on ?

I only have Fire Stick TV 4K, can I voice control the TV? What else can I control? Thanks! BTW, What other languages did the Fire Stick TV 4K recognize? How to configure it for dual language?

I have Vizio tv is that connectable to Alexa

I did all that but it still won’t work, my HDMI control CEC on my LG tv is on, the fire stick and my echo dot 3rd gen are linked on the Alexa app. HDMI control option is turned on under firestick settings and all devices restarted but it won’t turn off or on the TV, just the normal content search and play/pause content. The language on bother devices is British English. Is this the reason or what?! Thanx For the video it was really informative and easy to apply the steps in real.

Useful video 👍

Nice

Hey I have an Insignia ns-39l240a13 tv and idk if my alexa will connect to it my alexa is a 2nd gen btw

U haven't respond to anyone's the comments below

I submitted a question about how to connect to my Samsung MU3000 to my echo ( particularly a group on my echo). Could you help me with that?

Thanks 😊

Most wifi control stuff I see would be easier to operate normally, much of it is a gimmick. I do agree some things would be useful.. (especially from a remote place EG turning on and receiving video from a spycam)..

Please title your videos accurately. Nowhere does it say FIRETV. I simply want to turn on my TV through Alexa.

i don't have smart tv how can i connect my regular tv?

Can only one Alexa device only control one fire tv l?

Do you need an IR blaster for this to work?

Does it have to have the same Alexa account

we tried step by step, but it shows not devices found, amazon echo show and fire stick, emerson tv, somebody please help me :)

very nice Big like 6

I have a very old Samsung tv that does have CEC controls and I have both the TV's CEC control turned on and the fire stick's CEC control also turned on. I linked my echo dot to the fire stick as well but I'm unable to use echo dot to control turning on and off the tv. Do you know what I may be missing in the setup? What I'm trying to accomplish is to have my Ring doorbell camera display on my Samsung TV when I tell echo dot to "show my front door camera on the TV".

Do I have to be paying the fire tv subscription for that to work ?

can you connect the t/v direct to Alexa dot without any gadgets ??

I have a Fire TV Stick in my living room and Bedroom. I just got the Alexa Echo 3rd generation and for some reason it only works on the bedroom TV and not the living room tv. It even turns on my bedroom tv without a smart plug...Im so confused why my living room tv doesnt work? My bedroom tv is a samsung and my living room tv is a vizio. Can someone help me with this issue?

good

With your instructions, I was able to launch with the tv being off. Are you able to turn off the tv using the same method?

I've got a real head scratcher for you.... There are a lot of live tv services that you can get on a Fire TV stick, known as iptv services. If you have a bluetooth keyboard or hand held bluetooth keyboard such as a Rii, you can type numbers in and change channels that way. But, I'm trying to figure out how to get Alexa to change the channels for a bluetooth controlled device like the Fire TV stick. I have the Harmony Ultimate remote and hub and that can turn on my tv and my Fire TV stick but, it can't change channels in the iptv apps. If you add an Fire TV "Activity" in Harmony, you can only select commands found on a Fire TV stick remote (no numeric keys). I DID discover that I can pull up an on-screen keyboard in my iptv service (Gears TV) and then set up a set of sequences for the directional pad and select button to enter the numbers. But, it's a very tedious process to program in the My Harmony desktop app. Plus, you have to enter a 1 second delay between each step or the sequence goes too fast and gets it wrong. But, that's the only way I can get Alexa to run a channel changing sequence. Most numeric channel changing abilities for Alexa, involve infrared remotes. But, Fire TV remotes are bluetooth. I've contacted both Logitech Harmony and Amazon, saying that they NEED to add numeric keys to the Fire TV Remote or in the My Harmony activity set-up system. I just recently bought a used Harmony keyboard and the numeric keys do change the channels on my iptv service in the Fire TV stick but, much to my dismay, the keyboard doesn't get added as a "Device" in the My Harmony desktop app... so Alexa can't control that. I'm considering one last option. There is a Harmony Companion remote that has number keys on it and, I'm thinking that might show up as a new device in the My Harmony desktop app. We'll see. It's an odd quest to be on and sometimes I get tired and stop searching. But, maybe there are others out there trying to do the same thing and, posting this will help.

Do you have to have a separate Echo for each TV/Firestick----Or can one ECHO operate several TV/Firesticks??

I don’t have a echo device I have a google home :(

What if I have an Apple TV connected to my tv ?

Can you turn on your fire tv with just the amazon Alexa app on your phone, or are you required to have an actual Alexa device such as an amazon echo?

To create a samsung account to use this app is foolish. I create an account and its like a fort knoxs
