To continue with troubleshooting the issue between the Sony remote and Apple TV, try adjusting the connections. This process can help fix controlling the Apple TV with the Sony remote. Here's how:
"If your TV or receiver supports HDMI-CEC, Apple TV uses the HDMI connection to allow it to be controlled by your TV or receiver remote.
If some features don't work:
- Make sure that your TV or receiver offers HDMI-CEC support. For help, ask the TV manufacturer or check the manual.
- Check that your Apple TV is connected to an HDMI port that supports HDMI-CEC. Check the TV manual to confirm which ports support HDMI-CEC.
- Check that HDMI-CEC is turned on in the menu of your TV or receiver. Use the remote that came with your equipment. Because manufacturers often have different names for HDMI-CEC, look for a setting that ends in "Link" or "Sync." Here are some examples:
- LG: SimpLink
- Philips: EasyLink
- Samsung: Anynet+
- Sharp: Aquos Link
- Sony: BRAVIA Sync
* While volume control normally works using the IR sensor on the front of your TV or receiver, some receivers use HDMI-CEC instead. With volume through HDMI-CEC, you don’t need a clear path between your remote and the front of your receiver."
