That’s one thing I don’t like about it very there. With the FireStick Fire TV there’s a setting you can go into and choose one of three different trigger words. My son’s Echo Dot is set to answer to “Alexa…” my FireTV is set to respond to “Echo…” and I think you can choose “Computer…”. I can’t find anyway to do something like this on Google devices. My wife had a Google Personal Assistant and when I installed my Onn 4K Pro we started having problems with each device hearing and responding to the other! If anyone knows a way to change this (which I’m guessing just by this comment that there isn’t) it would be greatly appreciated.

i just ordered this from walmart and after 5 yrs with the 4k firestick it's time to move on, especially since they disabled your apps. glad I won't have to use adb debugging to expand the storage on this device like I did with the firestick....also, it's worth mentioning that walmart is shipping these out with 2 different versions of the remote... one is backlit with a huge blue "free tv" button in the center and the other is not backlit and just has a home button....now I need to figure out what to do with my firestick...it isn't worth much these days since the 4k max and firestick lite are out...maybe I'll just trade it back to amazon for store credit.

I have 1 in my mancave, and another in my Living Room. I still have 2 other 4k max 2nd generation firesticks. I can honestly say now, that I will never purchase another Amazon product ever again. Everything we could no longer do on Amazon, we can do on the Android devices. I live in America so I have access to Walmart. I was fortunate to get the last one in stock the 1st day they were released here. I have told all my family & friends that this is the way to go.

Can you use airel screensaver as your screensaver for the onn tv pro box? I have not been able to but on my previous onn tv boxes 2021 and 2023 I can. Any solution?

[@mattmatthews758]

Tech Doctor, I've heard the Pause/Rew/FF features are strangely configured on the remote. Can you comment on that? Also, do you think there could be bad experiences with that on 3rd party apps or browser websites?

[@dennyhiett6271]

Just use the select button to pause and play and use left side to rewind and the right side to fast forward. Works great

[@mattmatthews758]

Thx! I've read mixed reviews about how seamless that actually works. But my main question is whether because of how oddly that works - will there be a problem with 3rd party sources. And especially, how would this work on a video web browser!? You need dedicated remote buttons for those functions which the ONN does not have!? I'd really like TDUK's expertise on that question.

[@mattmatthews758]

So countless people, likely millions, stream videos on Fire sticks using Browsers like the Silk Browser. When you're streaming a video in the Browser you can't use the circular pad to rewind or fast forward! That does nothing. You must hit the dedicated tab buttons lower down on the remote (which don't exist on the ONN remote!). So again I ask, how is that experience on this peculiar ONN remote control!?

[@AlThompsonMarketing]

I'm using a computer monitor that doesn't have built-in speakers. How can I play sound through the speaker on the Onn box?

So I hit the pause button to read those questions and I had nice chuckle at the bottom right one. I don't know the answer, but I imagine you're going to have a quick answer for it. Ok, on with the show. Oh no, you didn't answer last question. Anyway, I am going to save this url and add it to the GOOD STUFF section so that when I get my new tv and have this as well, I will be able to set up those things you mentioned. Another Plus to this is that there are no ads whatsoever on that home page and second, it's not roku so that means no ads on my hdmi port. Let me add that your narration is great. You explain things so that they are easily understood. I am an IT guy, but I started when we had keypunch machines to create each line of code for the program. So this streaming stuff now that I have to avoid roku and their shenanigans is not something I'm used to doing. Thanks again.
