I'm reading that the remote is Bluetooth and not IR. Does the TV have IR? Will I be able to program my FiOS remote to control the power and volume?

I don't know if the TV has IR - not a tech person. But I can use my FiOS remote to turn the TV on, but I can't control the volume. I think you can, but I played around with my FiOS remote and it doesn't control the volume anymore.

Not a tech person, sorry I can't help you, but I do know that I love the remote and could use the volume control if I wanted to. We have the sound hooked up to surround sound.

It's not Bluetooth but it is a great remote, you really should contact Vizio to find out if it will work with your M3d550KD!

No you will have to get a universal remote. I use the Logitec Harmony. There are tons of different Harmony models that range from $40-$300 but even the cheapest one will control every ir device you own. Also its super simple to setup and highly configurable because you just plug it into your computer. So with that you you don't have to spend all day looking up remote device codes.

Your Verizon FiOS box has a 3.5mm port on the rear panel for IR input that you can use a plain mono cable to send signals. You may not need an IR emitter like this product.

I am using it with Samsung smart TV without any problem. On the setup I selected the Onkyo brand from the list and now it is working control by the TV smart remote system (just on/off, the volume should control by its own remote). I am not sure that the Vizio have this feature or not. Please ask Google.

No. It is still IR meaning it only has a few feet of range and must be in the same room. Also, it is probably not compatible with cable box or TV. It is designed speficially for computer and Raspberry Pi or other media center that requires IR control.

It is NOT Bluetooth. I think it might work with your tv but I am not sure since I have a different model. Please call Vizio customer care and they will confirm

I was able to program the Vizio VSB200 soundbar with my DISH remote (20.0 IR) by using code 833. I am able to control everything except for the TVOL and TSHD settings.

Yes. I have a Harmony One which is controlling a Panasonic flat screen, a Polk sounded bar, our cable box,a Panasonic bluray and a TIVo mini. The tv and the sound bar are in the open but the other stuff is in an in loses cabinet and are controlled by the Ir flasher. It all works great. The only issue is positioning the flashers. The directions say use the supplied tape but I have found this didn't work (T least for me). I found that aiming the shiny side of the device works best. Also, you will probably need to experiment a little. Be creative and once you find the proper spot, securely fix the flasher. Yes.

It comes with simple instructions to program your remote. I did my FIOS remote in about two minutes and it has worked fine ever since.

You need to use a HDMI cable to go and set the TV to HDMI setting. Better yet. plug it directly into the TV using a short HDMI cable and it will wirelessly connect to your modem. That is if you have a wireless modem. I have 3 TV's all connecting wirelessly to the internet modem through these type box's. This VIZIO is better then the Amazon Fire.

The remote is directional. You need to point it at the lower left corner of the set where th IR sensor is located. Also if your TV is connected to the internet (Ii is a smart TV and has a built in WiFi capability) be sure to run he software update. You will then be able to use the WI Fi with the remote to communicate with the TV. Also change the batteries if the remote becomes unresponsive. The remote is backlit which sucks a lot of juice from the batteries. I have changed mine twice in two months. If none of these things work, consider getting a Logitech universal remote.

Hi Ernest, Most Smart TV's have proprietary interfaces. Even though it may be Bluetooth or regular RF the Remote that comes with the unit probably is smart meaning has more software than is standard for HID compatibility. It is probably the same for your Home Theater. Some of the features can be programmed automatically in our KP-810-18R but because of the multiple options of a Home Theater device we would not be able to support all of your keys on the remote. I am certain that no other keyboard can provide the solution you are looking for either. Regards Tech Support

Yes. I am currently using a universal remote provided by Verizon to channel surf, control volume, etc. I also use the remote included with the television. I have used my cell phones' s bluetooth technology to control the television as well. I think that you will enjoy all that this TV has to offer.

if Fios has a IR sensor that is used for the remote then it will work. IF it is not IR and radio freq then this device will not function.

I use my Fios remote most of the time but have used the Harmony in the past. I only use the Vizeo for changing inputs and for Netflix streaming.
