Anybody here with the Toshiba's fire TV try using the remote to control your playstation? It freaked me out the first time it happened. Once out is on, you can scroll thru xmb and control video in YouTube and hulu so far I've found.

My fire tv turns on by itself and also turns on the tv and changes the input to the fire tv one all at the same time.The only way I can stop it is to unplug it-any ideas?

Hi,
I got a lot of lags on my fire tv when I watched the huluplus. Someone told me to adjust the option 'qualitly' to lowest, but I can't find it. and meanwhile I have found it on my samsung smart tv. It works perfectly. Now I have to wire to my smart TV directly.
So how to find the settings on my fire tv?
1. when you get the lag and buffering to huluplus, what would you do? What kind of STB do you have?
2. Why does not hulu add a option for the account so that we adjust the quality for every device, just like Netflix did it.
thanks
Very cool app and I successfully installed from my Galaxy Note5 to my Amazon Fire Stick, but my remote doesn't function and the resolution on my Vizio TV is stretched and way out of proportion. I changed all of the screen settings on my TV remote but nothing changed. Any ideas? Thanks.
I've got 8 fire stick tvs in the house and we use Hulu and almost always stream live tv. When some of the tvs are shut off streaming stops while with many others the fire stick continues to stream after the tv is turned off. Crazy data consumption! I know that if we hit the Home button first the streaming will stop but is there any way to just stop streaming on the 4 tvs that continue?

I used to power my ChromeCast using the USB port on my HDTV.
That worked until I added my FirestickTV.
I now use a "smart power strip" and the ChromeCast/FirestickTV only receive power if the HDTV is turned on.
IDK if there's a setting to power down the FireStick if the HDMI connection is null/dead but good luck!
It sounds like it may be a HDMI CEC issue.
I purchased the Toshiba Fire TV edition on prime day from amazon. The fire tv remote has four buttons to open specific apps: prime video, netflix, hbo, and vue. Any idea how to remap those buttons to open a different app? I'll never use the vue button and would rather it open Plex.
Possible solution
Try install Button Mapper from the Google play store
