Is it possible??

Hi guys, can anyone tell me if it is at all possible to power off 3 devices with just one remote control? I have just purchased a Sony kd-55 xh9505 tv and it's connected to a bdv-n700w surround sound system with sound coming through my speakers, also I have a bt/ Humax box(Freeview) as my source, so at night I have to turn off the SS system, then the TV, then my Freeview box with 3 different remotes and it's a pain!! Could I get some guidance off some of you 'techies' please. Regards Steve

Hi @muvoda   If you have the cash then buy a quality universal remote like a Harmony Remote. I use Harmony Hub based remotes so I say “Alexa, turn off TV” which switches everything off.

  • Thank you @LightFoot  but I was hoping I could do something with the SS system remote, it seems to have 3 buttons ie STB/TV/BD and I'm not sure if I could do something with that🤔 but I will gladly take on board what you said, so don't think I'm dismissing your reply, I thought there would be a way around it with 2 of my devices being Sony.
