Control your Samsung soundbar using your Samsung TV remote
Sometimes there are just too many remotes to keep track of. However, you can simplify things by using one remote to control your Samsung TV and soundbar. As long as your soundbar is connected to your TV with either an optical cable or HDMI via ARC, you can control the volume and mute the soundbar using your Samsung TV's remote.
Note: The provided information refers to Samsung soundbars sold in Canada. The available settings may differ for devices sold in other countries. Your Samsung TV menu may differ depending on the model.
Setting up your TV’s audio output will allow you to control the soundbar’s volume using your remote. You can then connect either a digital optical cable or an HDMI cable to the soundbar. After you do that, you’ll be able to use one remote for both your TV and soundbar.
Note: If your remote does not have the WOOFER button, check your user manual for how to turn on the TV Remote function.
If you decide to use a digital optical cable with your soundbar, you’ll need to activate the Auto Power Link feature. This will automatically turn the soundbar on or off with your TV.
Press and hold the left directional button on the remote to activate or deactivate Auto Power Link.
Note: Auto Power Link only works with an optical connection and is turned on by default.
If you decide to use an HDMI cable with your soundbar, you’ll need to activate the Anynet+ feature. This will automatically turn the soundbar on or off with your TV.
If you misplace the remote for your Samsung soundbar, you can purchase a new one from Samsung Parts. Simply enter the model of your soundbar to find the correct remote.
