You will be prompted to name your TV during the setup. Pick a unique name for every TV you set up. Use this name to tell Alexa which TV to control. You do not need to use the name every time you speak to Alexa. After the first time you ask Alexa to control your TV, Alexa will assume any applicable commands are for the same TV for the next 15 minutes.
