PS. Did you check the batteries in the remote?

1. Use new batteries.
2. Some Smart TVs use a dual channel method of IR for some and RF for other controls. These are a little rare but check your manual about pairing the remote.
3. If this is the wrong remote for this set, it could do as you wrote above.
then most likely it will only work on your tv. get a universal remote and program it properly
