Fm4 2.4G Universal Remote Control USB Wireless Remote Control for TV Box IPTV HTPC Mini PC Mac OS Lilux

I use it with an Intel Nuc running Libreelec with Kodi. I listen to all my music, watch my photos, videos, tv, movies, etc. Just plug the dongle and it works. You don't have to program any button. The buttons that are not on the remote, like Pause, and Fast Forward, etc, after you press the main ''OK'' button, it opens Kodi's display menu. Then, you can press pause, stop, etc. It is not an infrared remote, it is 2.4G RF wireless. So, you don't have to point at the box or tv. The remote still works when I am in another room and/or behind other walls, even outside. Standing 26 feet from the tv, the remote still works (It may works farther than that. That's my room's length). If you need a mouse, with the press of one button, a mouse cursor starts working. Press it again and it goes away. Plugging the dongle on my usb port on my laptop running Linux Mint, I can also control my laptop with the remote with no problem. No extra configuration is needed. What I don't like: During the day, there is no problem. At night, if you don't have enough light, like when you are watching tv or a movie, the buttons are difficult to see. Probably, after some time I will memorize where they are. I would love to have backlight buttons, or glow in the dark buttons or bigger buttons or different sizes buttons, or -if I am gonna dream, :)- all of them. Overall, this is the best remote I found to control Kodi. It is good looking, sleek and modern. I can have 3 or 4 everywhere because they are small and not an eyesore. Very comfortable on your hand. It doesn't have any unnecessary buttons. It works right out of the box, and it doesn't need any programming. It still works from a very far distance, even through the walls. I can also use it with my laptop. The price ($12.96) is a bargain.

I bought this remote to use Kodi on my Windows 10 gaming/home theatre PC. It's been working great. I've had it for 5 months and I've only changed the batteries once (and tbh I think the first batteries sucked) and I use it every day. It's got all the buttons Kodi needs (apart from a keyboard, typing with a dpad for search is pretty tedious, but what do you expect?) and it's so much easier navigating Kodi with the remote than with a mouse and keyboard. My only complaint is that the back and menu buttons are the opposite from my fire stick, but that's not really anyone's fault. Just something to think about if your brain is used to the fire stick. I've also used it in VLC and fullscreen browser YouTube videos and they seem to work fine too. Very happy with my purchase, would buy again for sure.

I wanted a TV remote I could use with VLC. This works perfectly for that. I just installed the free version of AutoHotkey from Github, then used the following script with AutoHotkey. Unfortunately, the Home button on the remote cannot be remapped and always opens a web browser. With this script, the center button works for play/pause in VLC: #IfWinActive ahk_exe vlc.exe Enter::send, {Space} ; Makes the 'Enter' key send a Space key, but only in VLC. SC15D::send, +{;} ; Makes the 'menu' key/button send Shift+; to VLC, to take a screenshot. SC16A::send, {v} ; Makes the 'browser back' key/button send 'v' to VLC to rotate subtitle tracks #IfWinActive

Works great to control the music app on my Linux box.

every button and function works okay. even the weird "air mouse" that uses the arrow keys to move the mouse. my only problem is the device isn't going into its so called low power mode. it drains batteries very quickly. in about 3 days depending on the battery and use. disappointing. update: stopped working completely like others even with a change in batteries wont respond at all.

It definitely worked but quite often it would go to sleep and require multiple buttons to wake it up therefore missing things like pausing at a certain scene. Would recommend other remotes

Two kids age 4 and 7. Kodi on Mint Linux. Was looking for a PC remote that would have absolute minimal functions, start, stop, pause, forward, rewind, home back. This little one has one button extra but I was able to remap that button in Kodi mapper add-on to stop function that was missing when I disabled OSD. Right now it all looks like a "kiosk" locked down to most basic player functions.

Out of the box works as a standard 2.4ghz usb remote, but the home and power buttons can be overridden and learn infrared (IR) remote buttons. For example, I have the power button set to send an IR signal to my TV to turn that on/off, but then all the other buttons go to USB over 2.4GHz to a RaspPi device. Instructions aren't exactly clear, but hold down the power or home button for 5 sec (whichever one you want to override) and release, then press and hold the original remote's button you want to clone (while pointing the 2 remotes head-to-head), until the flashing light turns off. Once one of these two buttons is "overridden" they don't send a signal to USB.
