TiviMate Remote Control: Navigation & Useful Shortcuts

Quick Answer: TiviMate is designed for TV and remote navigation. Remote behavior can vary by device and remote, so use the on-screen controls and action menus as the reliable reference instead of assuming every remote has identical shortcuts.

Basic TiviMate Remote Navigation#

Use directional controls to move through channel lists, groups and guide information. The select button opens the highlighted item, while back returns to the previous screen or closes an active panel.

Opening Channel Actions#

When you need to manage a channel, highlight it and open the available channel actions. This is useful for Favorites, channel information and other playlist operations.

Remote Button Not Working?#

  1. Test the same button in another TV app.
  2. Check whether the remote is connected correctly.
  3. Restart the TV device.
  4. Check for a device-level remote or HDMI-CEC issue.
  5. Test TiviMate's on-screen controls where available.

Different Devices, Different Behavior#

Fire TV, Android TV, Google TV and other television platforms can expose different remote controls. A shortcut that works on one device should not be treated as a universal TiviMate shortcut.
