Finally, the Any key!
How gracious of them.
Let me?
Great, more vendor specific keys that absolutely nobody needs.
I kinda see your point, but a huge number of people have a subscription to at least one streaming service, so those buttons are a useful feature for a lot of people.
Unlikely all 4 though. Give people 1-2 they can map services two, instead of multiple wasted (branded) buttons.
Most consumers want their device to work right out of the box, mapping buttons isn’t something most of the population wants to deal with.
A huge number of people like pussy too, but that doesn’t mean I want a button for it
(I’m gay af)
I ended up un mapping my Netflix button on my shield TV remote because it was super annoying for accidental presses.
Do the manufacturers even get a cut for promoting these services, or is this just what people want?
How did you do that please?
And heh, no cut, dummy. They get extorted. Netflix wouldn’t agree to allow the hi-res streaming to their devices otherwise.
Didn’t think about that, that makes so much sense.
I use Buttons Remapper and set the Netflix button to do nothing and override system. You don’t need to pay for this but there is other stuff locked behind a pay wall.
Yeah some TV’s these days come with streaming built in and have this kind of remote. Plus if you buy a set top streaming box like a Roku, they come with this kind of remote also. It’s stupid, but a real world thing.
I’m surprised they didn’t try to sell it to an ad company.
