#LG MAGIC REMOTE BLU RAY PLAYER TV#
On the TV I have sound out set to HDMI ARC, and in the additional settings menu I have eARC enabled. I have the TV connected via HDMI from the TV's eARC output to the Receiver's eARC input. HDMI has cleaned up cable bundles in systems but while delivering advanced audio and video codecs, it is also cramming HDCP down every single device’s throat and that is where many problems Altman I have an LG CX, and a Denon AVR-X3700H. Because the Oppo sends no commands via HDMI, the TV stays off.
If I want to play a CD, I turn on the AVR with its remote control or physical switch and select the Oppo. Having the TV come on for a music disc is an annoyance so I recently put my Oppo back into service and left HDMI-CEC off. If I want to watch a recorded show, I select my TiVo tile and have the ability to control the TiVo with the TV remote control and the AVR switches to the TiVo input. So, if streaming from TV apps, AVR switches to TV input. Programming devices into it gives them their own source tile in the Smart hub. I have been lucky and my Samsung TV remote control has it’s own universal function that works in conjunction with HDMI control. There is no requirement for manufacturers to implement HDMI features in any standardized fashion all these years on and it is a discrace. HDMI-CEC can work well in some cases but mixing old and new devices with different brands can be very frustrating to say the least. Smart TVs have moved beyond monitor status as streaming apps fill them up and this hybrid device makes matters difficult. Unless using coaxial/optical out, ARC with HDMI control ON is required for both TV and AVR unless both are eARC capable and even that is no guarantee between manufacturers. If a TV tuner was used, the audio could be sent out of the optical or even analog output. Some hate HDMI control and arc and leaving them off in the past was fine.
#LG MAGIC REMOTE BLU RAY PLAYER CODE#
Though, with the 1146, I was shocked Denon had no code for Oppo.
It wasn't too long ago that a TV was more of a monitor as cable boxes and disc players were the norm. Altman is able to get his system to function properly. But I suppose with all this complex set up issues it is a necessary evil. I don't think they have been a benefit really, rather the reverse. Personally I like it one remote per unit. Why I have to turn on the TV to play a CD and then I can turn it off I have no idea. However I had quite a time when originally turning off the TV turned off the Marantz. Still I have to have the TV on initially as you get no sound from a CD until the TV is on. The biggest problem I had was stopping the LG remote controlling too much. My LG remote does control the volume via the ARC when the Marantz pre/pro is set to TV audio. Radio remotes are better, but the two technologies don't coexist that well. Radio remotes are getting more common, for instance xfinity have gone entirely to radio remotes now. Click to expand.A lot of this problem stems from the fact that the LG uses a wireless remote and the Denon an IR remote.
