Pair Sky Stream Remote with a Monitor

[DaveMorr]

If I connect my Sky Stream Puck to a monitor (rather than an TV) can I use the Sky Stream Remote?  If yes, how do I pair it?

[Exiled-in-HH]

Who is the manufacturer of the monitor and which model is it?

[DaveMorr]

I haven't bought it yet.  I wanted to make sure it would work with Sky Stream before I did.  Otherwise I will bu a new TV.  (It is currently connected to a TV.)

Thanks

@DaveMorr  Most monitorsdon't have audio outputs on them so unless you have some way of hearing the audio such as an av amp it would be pointless, a proper TV would be best.

Choose your monitor then ask whether a puck and remote can be connected😉

Most dedicated monitors won't have remote control functionality.

Cheaper units which are essentially televisions anyway may do so.

I have an Amazon Fire TV Stick connected to an LG monitor: it has great audio but the screen aspect is a nightmare to get correct when switching from a laptop to the Amazon Fire TV Stick.

Thanks all. I will get a replacement TV
