Can I program my fish remote to sonos

What is a fish remote?


Hi @Mikey13812, welcome to the Sonos Community!

I’m as confused as Airgetlam is and not sure what you mean by fish remote, Google doesn’t help in this regard either. Do you have any further information you could provide us with, such as the full remote name or model number? 

It’s possible that this TV remote doesn’t meet our remote requirements. Please note that if you are connected via Optical, only infrared (IR) remotes will work with this connection. If you’re remote using radio frequency (RF) or Bluetooth, then you may need to programme your remote to control the Sonos volume as a separate audio device, how to do this should be outlined in the Remote Manual.

I hope this information helps!


If the goal is to reuse this sort of remote to control Volume, you may be able to train a SONOS soundbar to respond to this remote’s IR commands.


That deserves a prize for the most random post😂


I’m now wondering if the word ‘fish’ is an auto-correct of the word ‘Fios’…but still need that information that @Jamie A is asking for..
