You can also switch on or off your nuc with your tv remote setup as a mce or Microsoft remote.

How do I set up my Sony Bravia KDL37EX403 remote control as a mce or Microsoft remote please? Is there a guide please? Would I be able to get rid of the Pulse Eight adapter and control Kodi with the Sony Bravia remote?

According to this:

if your Onkyo remote is an IR remote (it seems to be), check if you can configure it as an MCE or a Microsoft Remote (check the remote code of your onkyo remote). I did that with my Yamaha receiver A3020 remote and I can perfectly handle my intel NUC ; no need to buy an extra remote, or any adapter.

Obviously I don't have an Onkyo receiver but I think I need my TV's remote code. I've been googling and haven't found a jot. Also I don't know what to do if I do get the code! Woe is me! This is all jolly confusing.

I can't tell you for you personal remote. I can tell you that my Yamaha remote can manage my av receiver and also other Devices like blue ray disk player or tv.

You have to check if you can do that with your remote and see the remote code that you can program in your remote. For instance with my remote manual I get hundred of codes according brand and devices. Choose the code of Microsoft or mce remote.

Like this I can switch on and off the nuc, navigate in the menu, play and pause a video. No need for an extra remote.

If there is no code or no way to put different code in your remote, you won't succeed.
