Thank goodness they have come out with a new remote. I have nothing but contempt for the old one! And pretty much they have everything in it that I wanted..... Especially the back-lit keys!
Thank you for this video. To change the batteries, you said that you have to slide the rear part. The remote control seems to be in one piece and you cannot see a part that would slide in the back. It would be very useful to have a short video on this specific point. Thank you
To work the mouse toggle on the new remote. Press play pause button twice, mouse cursor will appear and press the home button the cursor disappear . Hope this help.
Thanks for this, just upgraded my 2017 to this new remote. I find it much better but I wanted to find out how to use the lost remote feature. Great stuff - helped 👍
Another great thing is that is also DOES have IR, and the shield has a large range of receivers supported with it. That way it can control the receiver volume directly. That just blew my mind. Eliminering the need for an extra remote. Also since the CEC is supported, it can turn on or off the shield, tv and the receiver in one press. Not to forget the ARC support as well, that you connect the shield directly to the TV to get the full resolution if you don't have a 4k capable receiver. The audio from be passed through from the TV to the receiver. Eliminates the need for an hdmi splitter. The Nvidia shield is just great.
the new remote has accelerometer just for light? why not use as air-mouse if it has the hardware? so much easier to navigate, just look at remotes from lg.
Good video man. Personally, I think the remote upgrades are great. However, I'll probably just drop the extra $50 and go with the Pro version device wise.
I agree. Honestly, I just got the regular Nvidia shield because I wanted to showcase a new device. Personally, I feel that the shield pro is identical to the 2017 shield.
Hi. Question. Can you set a sleep timer ?? 10...20 ..30 min..?? Sometimes I'd like to set it ... and have it turn off by it's self. Please let me know. Thank you
I just purchased the nvidia shield a few days ago it now comes with the new remote design for the old style nvidia shield which to me that style is much better then that tube looking thing smh. My question is how do you program the controller to your tv???
Does the remote fall asleep when in Kodi or Plex? I don't like how the 2017 remote does this when I'm watching a TV Show or Moive and it takes a while for me to "wake" it up for me to adjust the volume.
got the 2019 Shield TV Pro and the hand set is good apart from the Netflix button ..is easy to accidently hit the Netflix button ..I think it would have been better being on top with the on/off under it
I have the Shield 2019 pro. When the box has been off for awhile, the remote does not turn the box back on or even light up. I have to take out the batteries and reinsert them to wake up the box. Any suggestions?
Weird my remote or the gaming remote dont need to program or click 2 buttons to pair?? So is this a Netflix patent or actually Nvidia. And tubers say the shape you wont loose it in the sofa (my sofa ate many time) but they put a tracking on this bulky one. Great info not a fan or hip especially no free shipping in 🇨🇦 cost more then the remote....
I really want one of these but they need to make some sort of stander something for it you know like your typical dangles just hang on the backside I or TV this thing's gonna lay down on the TV stand look like garbage it's around tube they need make some sort of thing to mount it to the wall or something some sort of clamp that would be nice out of sight out of mind
Go to Amazon and search for "WeChip G20 Remote Control 2.4G Wireless Voice Control Sensing Air Remote Mouse for Nvidia Shield Remote Replacement PC Android TV Box". This remote is much better than the Nvidia remote shown in the video. It has an air mouse which you need for some APKs like CyberFlix, CinemaHD, NovaTV, BeeTV, etc. The voice option works, ALL BUTTONS work. It's not bluetooth, you use the dongle provided. Just put the dongle into the USB port in the back of your Shield, and it works. Plus, it's ONLY $16.99. I've bouight two of them (I'm always dropping mine, so, just in case I break it). Maybe you can do a review on it.
So on the cheaper version there's a dedicated button to find your remote but on the Pro.... There isn't? You have to have had a second remote paired to find the original Nvidia remote? Is that correct or did I get something wrong?
The sideclick add on for the old remote solves all the issues with the old remote. I got one shortly after purchasing the older shield pro and turned off the volume function on the shield remote. No complaints since. Can also switch between inputs, and adds the much need girth to the remote. Does the new style remote have the ability to switch between inputs?
i’ve been pairing it to my iphone ever since my shield 2017 remote got damaged..now that ive upgrade my wifi and have to do a password change,my iphone cant seem to pair with my shield..if i purchase this new remote can it automatically pair to my old shield tv?
In case you are wondering about the varying tones played after pressing the paging button... That is Morse Code for the letters N V I D I A. -. ...- .. -.. .. .-
I have the NVIDIA Shield Pro 2018 and I can’t make my Samsung Smart TV volume control with the NVIDIA Shield remote control. Anybody can help how to pair the NVIDIA Shield remote control to control the volume with the NVIDIA Shield remote .
I have my Shield TV setup behind my 65' OLED TV. The old flat remote has a hard time receiving the signal inputs as the Shield box is behind the TV, but the Shield Joypad works much better sending the signals. Do you think this new remote will perform better than both old inputs? Does the bluetooth connection help the new remote? Great vid! Thanks
I've done all the tests I can do on the 2019 model, it comes out to about less than 10% faster than the old one, not the 25% they say, it does have a great remote and upscaling looks good, bu that's it, not worth it for $213 with tax, I think Nividia is trying to rip people off by take the same old computer chip and just overclocking it on us, RIPOFF!< Lets not buy it, I'm returning mine. they will be offering the same remote soon for the old model at around $30
@@Rspenesmit oh wow, is it really that far off? I still may go purchase it to see if I like it or not and get the new remotes for my current 2017 model shields
Thank you for this video. How can I fast forward / rewind while watching CZcams TV? I tried hitting the FF button, but it appears to start the show over vs FF. TIA
Obviously there are improvements such as backlit keys and lack of touch volume control but damn, did they design this entire device so it only good look in pictures? The triangular remote, the tubular case with horrible cable management and no holder of any sort.
The remote isn't great- The netflix button gets triggered way too easily which requires an app to disable it. The netflix button is basically the same issue as the old remote's volume slider.
why do you give out hearts and no reply? i have this shield and remote and am having detection problems and i don't know if this thing is on or off because it has no power indicator. 1) how do change batteries 2) how do you know if the damn thing is on or off?
Hey Triple M, you are the best dude. You just answered all my questions about the new Shield remote. Can I ask a favor of you? When you get word of when and where the remote only can be purchased, would you PLEASE text me to let me know, I'd certainly appreciate it. Again dude, you are the best. Have a blessed day.
The remote still isn't available for purchase yet. It is now showing the price, but you still can't purchase it. I'm hoping that other retail places will sell the remote. Thanks for your informing me though.
How do you use the mouse toggle on the new remote. Everything else is fine but when I need the mouse, I don't know how to turn it on. It's very important to be able to have the mouse when you need it. I have an app that I downloaded but need the mouse to use it. Thank You!
Is there anywhere in the settings where I can change my remote so I can put in numbers for TV channels and/or move up and down by pages instead of individual channels?
@@Triple_M the Pro Version only one that makes sense to get really. I had the old shield I bought from best buy. since I had the extended warranty I went and just exchanged it for the Pro
I'm disabled and in a disability chair and my wife sits in a recliner across the room. when she has to leave the room and I need the remote that she normally has I have to holler at her to get it for me. The question is can you pair 2 remotes at the same time to the same unit, and if so how do you do it?
I was able to use my remote and 2 different phones with the nvidia shield remote application at the same time. This makes me think that 2 regular remotes should work fine too, however I do not have 2 shield remotes to test this out, maybe someone else can confirm for you.
Can you help me I have got the new Nvidia Shield with the triangle remote and the batteries keep going flat within a couple of days and I'm using good quality batteries is there something wrong
It's a shame it doesn't have a mute button and an input change button. So I'm gonna stick to the recent fire tv remote control of Amazon which works on my shield pretty well except the microphone function.
Hi friend I love my fire cube remote it works my sound bar turns tv on and off and of course my fire cube, I just got the shield how do I use my fire remote on my shield?

I need that new remote. i hate the old one with its poor battery life.
Best thing about the 2019 shield is the remote..😁😁😁👍👍👍..good one MMM..
how is it better when there’s no headphone jack
Just the beeper alone makes me want one. I've always lamented that remotes don't have a pager of some kind in them. We lose our remote ALL THE TIME.
Lol, yes definitely one if its high points.
Just received the remote for my 2017 shield which still works flawlessly. Thanks for a guidance!
Nvidia found a way to get more money out of me older model. lol
I wish they had an adapter that snaps onto this so it would sit on the table with the controls facing up
Nice improvements. I wish it has a numpad in the empty bottom space. Would be great for old-school channel input. Like channel 47 TV station.
I pair my Amazon 4k remote with my 2017 Nvidia Shield and it works fine.
does it have voice search function and find remote feature?
If it only had a built in air mouse it would be perfect!
the new remote has accelerometer just for light? why not use as air-mouse if it has the hardware? so much easier to navigate, just look at remotes from lg.
I agree!! I think they wanted the remote/combo to be more "affordable" but an Air mouse would have been great.
Hey i just bought the device have you tried to add a wireless lav mic? How you would do it ?
This remote should've been on sale the same time the new shield was released!!!
Good Job! I was wondering why the back lit buttons were turning off so soon and were so dim. Thanks to you... I fixed that little problem.
Thanks for the info and walk through, just got the remote today from the nvidia store. Can't wait to check it out. Have a great day.
