    The set-top box will turn off. Follow the same steps to turn on the set-top box with the TV's remote control through IR Blaster function.

    Note:

    • Sony can't guarantee compatibility with third party devices. Some cable boxes will turn on and off with the TV's remote. However, there are some that don't. This is merely a compatibility issue.
    • The pictures below show additional controls that may be available under Media controls and Shortcuts.
