Was able to find & select a "Samsung audio accessory" to be put on the AUX button & it controls the soundbar. I then found an area on the HOPPER receiver that assisted in programming the DISH remote. HOPPER receiver -> Samsung Soundbar's HDMI in -> HDTV's HDMI in However, I think we did find a solution as I was over there yesterday helping with it again. No "SMART" features, no DLNA, no ethernet, & no audio outputs of any kind. Basically, two HDMI and one shared composite/component input. Again, I am chalking most of the issues up to the fact that this HDTV is a REAL generic HDTV in terms of features. I looked for this in their HDTV, but again, nothing. This seems to be the only way to do what we are looking for.

I then saw a section on how to program the remote to use the AUX device as its primary volume control. The HDMI in/out simply passes the "fixed" audio and video, but doesn't pass any kind of remote control.įrom what I have researched, I think I will have to program the AUX button on the Hopper's remote to control a Samsung stereo receiver/amp of some kind. However, even hooking it up this way requires independent control from soundbar and HDTV. This was actually the main reason we got this soundbar because it was one of the few at this price point that has HDMI in/out connections. I originally thought if I ran the Hopper's HDMI output into the soundbar (and then the soundbar's HDMI output to the HDTV), this would hopefully accomplish what we need volume control simply through the TV's control. Rather there is just an HDMI in/out and a 3.5mm input. There is NO OPTICAL input jack on this sound bar (Samsung HW-E350). In four button presses I have everything on and the remote is set to control the Dish without having worry about anything. I do not have to press the power button for the satellite since pressing the SAT button turns on the system.

When I turn my TV on this is the series of buttons I press: Press AUX, Press Main Power Button, Press SAT Button, Press TV power Button. Different systems but operate the same way.

My main TV is the same way but connected to a full surround sound. The only time I press the AUX is to turn on the sound bar. I have it so the volume buttons are defaulted to always run the sound bar, this way I do not have to press the AUX to change volume. I never use the sound from the TV since the sound bar is much better.

I have a sound bar on one of my TVs and I am able to run everything with just my Dish remote. On how to program it just look in the owners manual. Depending on how often you plan on using the sound bar you may want to make it your default speaker. Then program your Dish's AUX button to run the volume.

You will want to run an optical audio cable from the receiver to the sound bar. They do NOT want to use a universal remote either so it has to be done seemingly and with little effort with the Hopper remote or the Samsung sound bar goes back to the store.

Is this doable? I was thinking maybe the AUX input could be programmed for the sound bar, but when we press it, a big notice comes up on the screen (and stays there) basically telling us the AUX device has been selected. Right now, the Hopper remote is controlling the HDTV's sound, but we want it to control the soundbar sound instead and also accomplish this without having to switch inputs on the Hopper remote too. The sound bar came with its own remote for its audio control as well as additional features, but they don't want to have to use this remote at all and only use the Hopper remote. However, is there any way to program the Hopper's remote so it can seamlessly control the Samsung sound bar for audio, but still power off the Samsung TV in the usual way (the TV power button on remote). Since the HDTV has no audio outputs, we are forced to connect the DISH Hopper receiver directly to the sound bar's audio input jack.

Now, they haven't been real happy with the sound coming from the Samsung TV and wanted to upgrade this so we got a Samsung sound bar from Best Buy. Just two HDMI inputs & a component/composite input. This HDTV is a real basic model and has absolutely no audio outputs on its rear panel. It is then connected to a 46" Samsung HDTV. They have a Hopper in their main living room. I have a family member who has DISH network and I am trying to help them with a situation.
