Chromecast Google TV - Extra Remote Control?

by iawegian

I would love to have more than one remote in our living room. Google doesn't show an extra remote available on their website. BUT there are "Android tv" remotes available on Ebay and Amazon that run off Bluetooth. Any chance these "universal" Android TV remotes will work with Google TV?

I ended up buying a second Chromecast with Google TV just for the second remote. Hoping other remotes come out so I can use the additional chromecast.

Yes, the 3rd party remote I bought from Amazon that worked on my Shield (via USB) also works on the new Chromecast. Just need to buy a USB-C hub!

I see some guy below is talking about the Amazon Fire Stick 4k remote control - says it works great with CCGTV - except voice control does not work.

The Nvidia Shield remote is fully compatible. I use it instead of the CCwGTV remote.

I ordered this inexpensive remote: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RT1QPWZ/

If this doesn't work, I will try the Nvida Shield remote
