Product Information

Intelligent voice recognition: Easily give your LG TV instructions, even when your hands are occupied. If you’re still not able to control your home theater speaker with the LG Magic Remote, try disabling SIMPLINK for the Optical connection under Settings > Sound > Sound Out. LG dropped DTS and DTS:X support on their 2020 sets, most likely to save 50 cents a set or because most streaming content providers do not support DTS or maybe both.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. I'm surprised that you could even get sound from the TV to the receiver over the ARC connection without being able to control both devices from the LG remote. Follow the instructions in our Set up a new TV remote with Sonos home theater speakers article to program the LG Magic Remote with your Sonos home theater speaker.This stuff continues to get more complicated and these types of "integration" might work or might not, depending on the situation. Several times I have had issues with the app suddenly losing the connection with the tv even after using writhing the last few minutes and staying on the same Wi-Fi connection. Unless you get the receiver to recognize the magic remote (by this I mean the on/off function) I doubt you will ever get the remote to work with the rest of receiver functions such as volume or mute. But that's better for now than having 4K video with stereo audio, when I'm mostly watching HD shows on it right now.

What’s so fascinating about the Magic Remote is how its shape has changed and evolved over the years. So, I turn off all CEC and cross-component integration, leaving it all to the remote, which I get to program to work how I want. If these function properly, you can proceed to select further options to make your remote more useful for that device. You can use this replacement Magic Remote Control like a mouse to select and run content on your Smart TV and thanks to its voice control commands and gestures it allows you conveniently access various Smart TV functions.I am having a heck of a time with a task that should be really easy: tuning my LG 55" OLED television's "Magic Remote" to control the volume on my Denon AVR-S540BT receiver. The Magic Remote Control acts as both a cursor and a remote control that allows you to operate your Smart TV and the external devices connected to it.
