If you’re having trouble pairing your Meta Portal TV remote during setup:

  • Press and hold both the back and play/pause buttons on your Meta Portal TV remote at the same time for 10 seconds.
  • Unplug your Meta Portal TV, then plug it back in again.
  • Perform a factory reset on your Meta Portal TV and follow the on-screen instructions to pair your Meta Portal TV remote.

If your Meta Portal TV remote is unresponsive:

  1. Make sure the remote has working batteries inserted correctly (both facing the same direction).
  2. Unplug the power cord from your Meta Portal TV, then plug it back.
  3. Once it boots, Meta Portal TV should be in pairing mode and searching for a remote (this may take a minute to launch). Press any button on the remote to reconnect when you see Looking for remote on your screen.
  4. If a remote isn't found by the time the countdown ends, you should see on-screen instructions to pair the remote. To manually pair your remote, press and hold both the back and play/pause buttons for 10 seconds.

If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you can try a factory reset on both your Meta Portal TV and remote following these instructions:

  1. Unplug your Meta Portal TV power cord.
  2. Press and hold the button on the side of your Meta Portal TV while plugging your Meta Portal TV power cord back in at the same time. You will see a notification and countdown on your TV screen letting you know that your Meta Portal TV will Factory Reset in 10 seconds. Continue holding the button during countdown.
  3. After your Meta Portal TV restarts, reset your remote by pressing and holding both the play/pause and volume up buttons for 20 seconds.
  4. Press and hold both the back and play/pause buttons for 10 seconds to pair your remote when setting up your Meta Portal TV after the factory reset.
