Yes. It works. I haven't tried to see how much of it works but I've used it on my Intel NUC before

It technically works with WMC on an Xbox 360, but its configuration is not ideal. For instance, there's no green button / start button that will get you back to the main WMC menu. That makes it somewhat difficult to get to Recorded TV from Live TV. There is, however, a Live TV button. I've had to use a workaround that involves making sure I go to Recorded TV first upon startup, then to Live TV. That way I can use the back button to get to Recorded TV. It bothers me, but for $10 I suppose I can live with it.

That is why I got this remote: I use my 360 almost exclusively as a WMC extender. If you mean, can it control WMC directly on a PC -no.

you can control Windows system volume but the play, fast forward, rewind,etc buttons won't work. but the remote had a mouse so you can move the cursor. I've found a wireless keyboard with a track pad to be more useful for Netflix and Hulu - Logitech k400r. this remote is best used in Windows media center

It works plug and play for Windows and OSX. I have used it on a few Android devices. "Smart tv" is too broad an OS to comment on. The remote is 1.5X5 inches, thickness of an iPhone.

I tried using 4 remotes. 3 old TV remotes and one surround sound remote. It worked with them all.

Technically no, because XBOX One doesn't have Windows Media Center Extender. However, I would assume the power, A/B/X/Y, etc. buttons would work.

yes it does it will also work in xbmc media center which is way better than the windows media center.

That remote should work on all WDTV units, has the same logic/script. The issue is that the newer units have more functionality and this remote is limited. If the unit you have is the older unit (hint; not compatible w/ MKV) then yes this remote will work. The WDTV Live has a free remote you download to a smart phone (apple or android, no crappyberry)

I don't own that newer model, but this remote worked for both earlier models of wd tv live. You might send an email to WD directly asking.

yes. I use mine for 360/ 360 media center extender/ Vista Media Center/ receiver/ plasma/ and lcd. This remote is great.

No this remote is for the WD box that is used to stire data then connected to the TV. Sorry

It is compatible with Windows 7 and it does work with Windows Media. Just be aware you cannot create playlists with it.

I don't know! I don't have this unit, I returned because of remote compatibility.

I have it working with my XP Media Center. XP Media Center "lays" on top of Windows XP so it runs through the XP component. Haven't had a problem with it so far.

Yes I bought one and plugged it into my Xbox One, and it works most excellently. I use it for my cable box and my LG tv. Makes the Xbox One media remote a must have.

I think a remote for a Digital Stream converter box (e. g. ATSC -> NTSC) might work. I've seen such work at my home.

Not sure - but I did find it annoying the remote did not have direction keys (ie: up, down, left, right) it only has a mouse which isn't always effective for htpc configurations especially when the application UI is normally manipulated with direction keys for quick navigation. My use was on a htpc with xbmc and had to return the product because it didn't satisfy my need. Hope this helps. Wm
