Audiophiliac is a bit harsh, so let me say it a bit more gently: this is what you get at this price point. The problem absolutely can be solved, but we can't expect Sony to solve a problem that is not a problem for Sony. It's only a problem when another manufacturer gets clever and works out a way for their remotes to be used. Which, by the way, keeps the overall system price down.

I'd also comment that TVs are not a good way to access streaming devices because of the complication that introduces with remote controls.

It all fits together: be cheap, you look at the popup. Want a more sophisticated control situation? Pay for it.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
