When connected to a Seiki TV, does the Seiki TV remote control the Seiki soundbar?

For the person who needed a new remote. On the back of my remote is a sticker of a green clock with numbers 1 to 12 and printed over the face is Q.C underneath is an under line, under that is the number 12, and under that is the word pass. that is the only thing on mine. On the TV answer not sure, I have a lot of remotes and nothing works but the Seiki. might see if there is an 800 number for the U.S to try customer service

No you will need to use the remote on the sound bar. I have not found a configurable remote that adjusts it other than the one it comes with. Besides you would not want audio coming from the TV speakers and the sound bar as it would sound terrible. What I do is set the TV sound at zero and just adjust volume via the sound bar control.

I use my Sceptre TV remote to control the Sceptre sound bar volume. The TV remote has separate volume +/- buttone.

Yes, it does have a remote. The volume can also be controlled once it's plugged into the tv. Meaning using the volume control on the tv well raise and lower volume through the soundbar.

our tv is the seiki se322fs, 32 inch...it does work for this tv. changes the channels, works the volume, last channel button and changes the source. have not tried to use it for anything else. hope this helps. at least i am seeing the seiki brand in more stores now..so an actual universal remote for it should be available sometime soon i would think.

Yes. Simply use the audio out plugs on the back of the TV to the matching inputs on the back of the Soundbar. Once connected, you'll want to turn the volume control down on the TV to let the Soundbar system take over. Cheers!

No it does not you have to have onkyo surround sound it's basically a remote for the surround sound

Hi Carol,My unit does not -- but it has been configured on my universal remote to affect my Dish network connection. Ironically, I cannot acquire the Dish signal until the Sony controller turns on the soundbar. Once I got used to this.. everything became a breeze. I hoped this helped.-Mark in Portland

Yes it does, in the audio playback section of the setup menu (if I remember correctly), under variable or fixed output, select VARIABLE, this will allow you to control the volume from the remote.

I don't have a sound bar in front of the unit, but I can guess this would cause problems with the remote. The model I have has a very specific spot you need to point the remote. If I don't have the remote aimed correctly then the tv doesn't respond. The sensor seems to be on the lower left of the screen so you might be okay but if the sound bar blocks line of sight to this location from any spot in the room I would guess that this would definitely cause a problem. Caveat: The sensitivity of the remote seems abnormal so I might have a bad/weak sensor in the TV I got. Your results may very, good luck.

The soundbar power can be controlled by the TV remote power button. Just follow the instructions with the soundbar that tell how to set it up to learn the power on and off functions of your TV remote. The soundbar itself cannot tell if the TV is on or off, so if your question is concerning the TV being manually powered up without a TV remote and in turn have the soundbar power up, then no, that does not happen.

Not sure about that and I don't want to seem condecending but you do know that the remote has a subwoofer control. Its on either side of the mute button and is labeled SW level, which means sub woofer level, I hooked mine up and had to find it myself, but after that no problem, it will also display on the sound bar the subwoofer level SW - or + 1-6 hope this helps. Oh make sure its hooked up right with the subwoofer hooked to the sound bar in its proper place.

The remote for the Coby does not affect the TV speakers. I disconneted the RCA sound cables running from my ATT UVERSE box to the back of the TV and connected them directly into the Coby. The volume control for the soundbar does not have any affect on the TV. I used the TV remote to turn the TV speakers down to 0. I believe the Coby came with cables but they are very cheap anyway. I have many laying around from old games/VCRs/DVD players/etc.

Mine came with a remote. If you are connecting this soundbar to a compatible LG tv, your television remote can control the soundbar volume as well.

Yes, there is. However, it is of constant full volume nature and cannot be varied with the volume control on the TV remote. This is one major weakness to add to the already known issue of relatively muffled sound from the built in speakers. When connected via toslink or HDMI to a receiver that accepts either of these newer standards, the sound is clean, noise-free and quite superb from DVD sources routed via the TV. However, only the Digital Audio channels seem to allow volume adjust from the remote control. Since the signal is going to a receiver, I expect most people will use the receiver remote and volume control instead. If the receiver is compatible with the component sync features of the TV, then the TV remote will learn and operate the receiver, too. All challenges, and I think, in the end, more product upgrades and so on to achieve peace. There is a Samsung SoundBar but most reviewers are not thrilled with the boomy bass and relatively high cost (list $400). Many others have preferred other soundbar options. I would advise listening first, then choosing something that sounds right to your tastes.

Not ours. There are cables that plug into the back of the sound box from our DISH satellite, but the sound bar has a separate power remote and also a power button on top of it (in case you cannot find the remote)
