I believe you can with certain remotes, but they have to be programmed. The short answer is I don't think so. I know you can with a Samsung remote. This unit does come with it's own remote. I think for remotes other then Samsung, you might have to send them an email or contact their customer service to be sure if it will work with yours. Good luck! It's a great unit so I hope it works out for you!

If your TV has a 3.5mm headphone jack, it should work fine. You won't be directly controlling the speakers themselves, but instead the volume of the output jack. You'd probably set the speakers volume to around 50%, and then use the TV remote from there.

The ability to use the TV remote to control the volume of a home theater system is possible only if your HDTV supports HDMI ARC (audio return channel) and you have an HDMI 1.4 cable that supports ARC. At least one of the HDMI ports on your TV must be labeled with ARC. Check your TV specs. I just purchased the Panasonic SC-HTB550 for my Panasonic TC-L47ET5. It works beautifully with the TV remote to control volume. However, you must use the mini home theater remote to control the level of the subwoofer and other features.

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.

The plug supplied with the transmitter is the same size as the jack on an iPod. I am not sure what size jack is on the Samsung tv. The remote turns the speakers on and off and controls the volume.

Pinnacle lists a few options here: http://www.pinnaclespeakers.com/rc-sl.html Additionally a learning remote would work, or you could just connect the system to your TV's headphone or RCA outputs and continue to use your TV remote to control the volume.

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.

Not a tech person, sorry I can't help you, but I do know that I love the remote and could use the volume control if I wanted to. We have the sound hooked up to surround sound.

There is a volume control, if your TV has a mini headphone jack you should be able to connect using it.

yes but you can only adjust the volume with the remote provided with the speaker not the TV remote

Yes you can. If your tv has a 3.5mm headphone/earphone jack. Once you have plugged it in, turn the volume on the tv up to half, and gauge the sound with the volume control on the Altec speakers. Then you can use the tv remote to adjust volume from there.

Dear Jim,I don't think that there are remote codes for your TV remote to control volume on the NOVA. Most likely you'll need to control volume on the volume buttons on the Nova. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

If the TV has a 3.5mm headphone input you can use a " 3.5mm to dual rca audio adapter" and control the volume with the TV

This remote is only for certain LG tv's, it is not a universal remote. If you have your speakers set up a certain way were the TV volume controls the speakers, then yes. If not, then no. Either way, it will not control the speakers directly or independently.

I don't know if the TV has IR - not a tech person. But I can use my FiOS remote to turn the TV on, but I can't control the volume. I think you can, but I played around with my FiOS remote and it doesn't control the volume anymore.

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