Will my cable remote control the tv volume?

It will control the tv volume, but you will have to adjust the soundbar manually,and as you turn up the volume, you should get the increase in sound that you want.

I have my manual knob set at max. I use the tv remote to raise and lower the volume. The two I purchased are quite clear and work great. The box amplifies the output signal from your tv set, so sure you can use the remote for the volume as I've described.

Yes, your remote will still control your TV. However, the box will be controlled by remote we have to turn the dial

HI, the speaker overrides the TV volume. You can lower the TV volume but the speaker still pumps out the volume it's set at so you don't hear much difference. It's frustrating as I like to mute and lower volume when I watch and can't do either well with the speaker attached. If anyone knows the solution, I'd love to hear it too.

yes and it will improve the quality of the sound. Flat screen tvs make for better pictures, but poorer sound. This solves the problem. good value.

No, it has a nob in the front. That is how you control the sound. So you have to get up each time to turn it on/off

i use this speaker system with my computer. i think it is not too suitable for use with a tv.

Sorry but the remote control is not compatible. That is why the volume doesn't work. I wasted my money on this contol also. In my case the remote control worked on the TV, but not on the cable box, or DVD and not on the Roku 3.

Yes. Not sure if you'd be able to control the volume with your Dish remote. It depends on how the dish receiver handles the audio output.

Hi,No, the sound bar volume does not increase and decrease with the TV. An it does have it's own remote.

No, you are limited by the distance of the cable, I have since bought a remote in that is ideal for what you want

Make sure the TV sound is disabled. Volume will be controlled by SoundPlate remote.

Yes and no. Yes, some TV remotes will allow the volume toggle to work with the sound system. Example, cable or satellite remotes which are remotes. Understand done if the TV remotes also allow for universal functionality. No, it will not allow you to switch between inputs so you will still need the remote the system comes with or walk to the box. Just remember to use use the digital inputs for your dvd/blu-ray players and TV. Cheers

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.

Bill B is partly correct. If you have cable straight out of the wall without a cable box/receiver, then it should work. But if you are using a cable box/receiver because you need it receive specialty programming or paid premium channels like HBO or similar, then this will not work for that situation. I sent my back specifically because of that reason. You cannot program it to adjust the volume for the TV and then change the channels on a receiver like you can other universal remotes. It's one or the other. It's a really poor design because of that.

No, it does control the volume in media center what you do you set your tv volume some hight and you control it with the remote control in your windows media center

The remote on my speakers does control the volume. The speakers work very well and seem to be durable.

Probably. It depends on your TV set's ability. The TV's user manual should inform you whether the audio out is separately controlled.

If you are running your external speakers through a receiver, all you need to do is turn the volume all the way down to zero on your tv remote (do not mute). Then control your volume with the receiver's remote.

I see no reason why that wouldn't be the case, although it may require you to switch between devices. I am using the system through my universal cable remote and have it set up as the "auxiliary" device. If I don't switch to auxiliary before using the volume buttons, the remote logic thinks I want to adjust the volume on my flat screen. You could route the audio through your TV, but then any volume adjustment would include the TV speakers which sound terrible. I'm running a fiber optic cable from my cable control box directly to my system. Sounds terrific.

Hi Paul - the Mini T does not have any remote capabilities, but if the headphone output from your TV is variable (which most are) the level to that output will go up and down with the master volume so you can leave the Mini T set at a moderate level and adjust the overall volume on the TV itself. Hope this helps - let us know if you have any more questions.

No, unfortunately. I just use them for the bedroom TV. So I just use the TV remote for volume.

There is a mini jack port (not sure about the tv specifics) and yes he remote is for control of volume and on/off
