Is there any way to turn off the volume when it is hooked to a TV?

There is no way to turn the volume off when it is hooked to the tv. I have tried everything. I contacted Orei and they said to mute the unit, but if you do that you mute the sound on the tv as well. The way I have gotten around this problem is I plug the earbuds that came with unit into the headphone jack. The sound will go into them and you don't have sound of the unit and tv going at the same time. I hope this helps. :)

You can disable the audio thru the HDMI cable by going into device manager and selecting your on board/audio card. That will output the sound thru your pc speakers. Will have to do the opposite of course when you want the sound from your tv.

yes you can as long as your tv has analog out for audio, you can go into tv menu and turn off tv speakers then use vol control from tv to control sound.

Yes, you can either mute the tv or turn the volume all the way down (that way you dont see the mute symbol) and control the volume on the head phones.

Mine is connected directly to my receiver and I too keep the speakers on the TV muted.

You are almost certainly stuck with using the volume knob on the amplifier. Audio out from the TV is line-level and not subject to the TV's remote. The TV's headphone output may be subject to the TV's remote, but in some cases, such as my Panasonic TV, the headphone level is controlled from a separate menu item. Overall, you are not going to get a fully integrated experience unless you go with a sound bar that has its own remote control infrared receiver, or a full AV receiver setup which becomes the master source for all signals and has its own remote control.

I'm not aware of any solutions apart from utilizing the headphone out on your audio receiver. With a TV this nice you've got a sound system, right? ;-)

Yes, i'll give you some examples. If it's plugged into a pc. You can have the control knob about halfway so its not too loud. then adjust the computer volume.If it's plugged into your tv, same thing. Just keep the knob at the middle(or wherever suits you) and you can adjust the volume of the tv. Hope that helps.

Not unless your TV has a bypass option for the headphone jack. Most TVs cut the speaker sound automatically when a headphone jack is plugged in.

All you have to do is turn the volume down to zero. It will not come back up by itself and will not interfere with you surround sound system.

Some headphones have a volume adjustment on them otherwise if you have the device connected properly you should be able to turn the volume up on the tv you are connected to. You also might have to turn off the internal tv speaker setting on your tv when using this with newer tvs

Yes, you can turn the sound off. Just go to the menu and hit the down button until zero bars are highlighted. My monitor completely turns off the sound and leaves the picture on (for a minute or two if it's not plugged in.)

Yes. I have it hooked to my TV. Lower the TV volume and the output is lower. Your headphones may also have a volume control and then you can use either one or both to increase or decrease the volume.

The volume can only be controlled by the sound bar remote. I thought this would be a problem but I have my television audio set to auto adjust sound and very rarely need to ever pickup the sound bar remote.

just push the blue button and it will go off but so will the sound -- i don;t think you can just turn it off and continue getting sound out of it.. i don;t use mine anymore because, too much bass for me -- i just went back to my TV speakers

Yes there is. In the back of the tv there is an "audio out" where you connect your headphones. Press the mute button on your remote control so others cannot hear and you have headphone use.

You can have the sound to the TV off or it can be on. My husband absolutely loves his! We all appreciate being able to turn the volume to the TV down.
