After purchasing the Audiobar for my Samsung LED TV model series 6150, I now have to use two remotes to control my TV experience. Add to that my Verizon FIOS control box for channel selection, I need three remotes. Can I at least control my Audiobar using my Samsung TV remote? How do I configure it?

I purchased the sound bar and decided to update to a home theater system. Now that iI have both I would like to have them work together w/ TV

I can't get the soundbar to sync with Bluetooth headphones. Is there a way to do this?

I noticed in the past week or so that the subwoofer keeps cutting out. The blue light is on and it works sometimes, so I know it is connected. If I change the volume, it will come on for a few seconds, then cut out again. I unplugged it and plugged back in - it came on really loud, then cut out again.

DO I CONNECT THIS DIRECTLY TO THE CABLE BOX FROM COMCAST?
DO I CONNECT THIS DIRECTLY TO MY SMART TV?

Before the Sound bar I had both Cable Box and DVD player hooked into AV Receiver then from AV Receiver to HDMI 1 slot on HDTV Do I need to use the AV Receiver or can I connect the cable box and dvd through the soundbar or directly to TV using two HDMI slots on tv. ???

I have a Samsung UN60ES7100FXZA TV, and a Samsung HW-E450 Sound Bar. According to the specs, the sound bar should not only turn off when the TV is powered off, but, back on, when the TV is turned on. However, in my case (And this happens on 2 different units), I can either turn off with the TV, and not back on, or, Turn on with the TV, but, not back on. My system is set up as such: Sat Box into the HDMI 1 of the Sound bar. HDMI Out of Sound Bar into HDMI 2 of the TV. I have also tried using the optical cable to connect between the Sound Bar and the TV. In this connection, I no longer have Anynet (Has to be off), With this connection, The TV does not power the Sound bar off, but, it will turn it on. However, in this mode, you have to use the Soundbar remote to control volume. I at first thought I have a defective unit, so boxed it up, and went to where I purchased the unit. The assistant manager gave me some grief, but, exchanged it. I brought the unit home, and now have the same issue. I went back to the store, and used the one that they have on the floor (Demo). It does the exact same thing. So, I spoke with the assistant manager again, and showed him the issue. He told me that he knew that this is a problem with these, and that while Samsung know of the issue, there is no fix. So, I am hoping that a engineer or above can figure this one out. I have researched this on the web, and there are 100’s of people with the same issue. Can someone please look into this issue, and fix it? This is why I bought ALL Samsung, because with AnyNet, they were all supposed to work together, and be able to use one remote.

Thanks,

The sub is linked but there is no sound from the sub even with the S/W Level at +6. I tried resetting the ID without any success.

The instructions for connecting TV show optical cable OR aux, but I'm guessing that means you don't connect the same device twice. I have to go buy an aux cable if that will work, so I want to be sure before I buy it.

If I take the sound bar out of the loop and plug the player directly into the TV, it works fine.

I cannot get the Samsung TV remote, a TiVo remote or a programmable universal remote to turn the sound bar ON.

The TV remote will turn it OFF using Anynet+ but will not turn it ON.

Serious engineering flaw. Extremely dissappointing.

Bought a matching Samsung product so I wouldn't have this problem.

We have the Samsung Smart TV and the Samsung Sound Bar but we are not sure if the TV supports the ARC of the Sound Bar.

My sound bar will not turn on with TV. I First hooked it up with Optical and don't like switching remotes for volume so I switched to the HDMI ARC.

The volume works and the auto off works, but no auto on with the TV, as stated in the manual. It will, however, turn off with the TV. AnyNet is on and working fine.

Another issue: It always starts up in TV ARC, and I get sound but no picture. I have to switch it to HDMI and I get sound and picture, but any time I switch the source on my tv, or make any other changes it switches the mode over to the optical for some reason.

I am running HDMI out from the cable box into the soundbar then HDMI out from soundbar into the HDMI 2 ARC on the tv. using a Samsung UN60ES7100FXZA TV. Are there any updates that will fix the soundbar, so that I do not have to use 2 remotes? If not, please consider removing that from all of your product advertizing, as this is not working on MANY units in the field. CONNS told me that all of theirs in the the stores do the same thing.

Thanks
