Does Bluetooth Remote Turn Android TV Box ON/OFF

thufz

Lurker
I have just recently purchased the M8S android tv box.
The remote supplied with the unit is absolutely horrible. It uses Infared and the range is max 5-10m. its extremely annoying to use.
So i was looking to get a Bluetooth remote, preferably with an air mouse function and keyboard.

What i was wondering is will i be able to switch the and tv box on/off using the remote. As the box itself does not have a on/off switch on it.

BTW the remotes i was looking to get are:
Mele F10 Deluxe IR Learning Remote
MINIX NEO A2 Remote
MINIX NEO A2 Lite Remote
ProBox2 Remote+
Any other remote recommendations are welcome




Any help is appreciated.
Thank You
 
Use only BT remotes with IR learning capability and support for NEC protocol (which Amlogic devices are using) so you can map power button because BT can't wake up device (it can put it to sleep as it's standard HID function of power button).
