I recently moved my switch dock from my living room to my bed room
the switch dock is right before the right-lower corner of my tv
late yesterday, my switch needed to be recharged, so i put it on the dock
later, i went to sleep, so i tryed to turn off tv but i couldn't, I though my remote was low on battery, so i turned it off with button on tv side

but this morning i took my switch off my switch, then turned my tv on with remote, everything was fine, no problem at all
is it possible that when the switch is too close to the tv, it corrupt remote signal?

It's probably due to the HDMI-CEC support of the Switch. It's used for automatically powering on the TV when the Switch is powered on, but different TVs respond differently to its presence.
For example, my brothers TV will switch to the Switch input automatically and not let you change it while the Switch is on and connected, whereas my TV doesn't do that.
You can disable HDMI-CEC in the Switch settings if it bothers you. The setting is just called something like "turn on the TV when the Switch is turned on"

    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

  • NinStar @ NinStar:

  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
