MichaelSage Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 (edited) Hi, I got my remote a couple of days ago, I've had a play with it and I've hit an issue... I can't get the remote to control my Samsung TV (the Samsung soundbar and roku work fine). It only toggles the power about once in every 10 - 20 times and none of the other buttons work at all (i.e arrows, guide, etc), I suspect the remote code is wrong, but I've tried all the samsung TV options. I have double checked and it's definitely an IR remote. Any tips / suggestions? Edited January 24 by MichaelSage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 Do you have the original remote? On the skip, Is there any button on power button to creat a macro or is it just the Samsung power? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelSage Posted January 24 Author Report Share Posted January 24 Yeah I have the original remote, it's model bn59-01268d if that helps at all. I am not sure I understand what you mean, I use the power on button to turn on the TV and soundbar (the sound bar turns on fine). With activity A I have it turn on the soundbar and TV and set the input to antenna (this only powers on the sound bar). If I manually turn on the TV none of the buttons that should control the TV work. With Activity B it turns on the soundbar and TV and should set the input to HDMI1, again this doesn't turn on the TV. If I power the TV on manually the remote controls my roku fine. So I think it's an issue with the Samsung TV control, with none of the mappings working I suspect there is a missing control set somewhere?

Nathan Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 If you click the Power button on the remote in the Skip app, it will show you a list of all the commands it sends to the TV. I think Jason is asking for that list. See this video for an explanation. https://www.youtube.com/clip/Ugkx_0KGN0cjdz2_DfUkIz5hIxXPcjCsMwY0 The question is whether any Samsung TV buttons have actually been assigned to your remote, and what those buttons are.

MichaelSage Posted January 24 Author Report Share Posted January 24 Oh sorry. Yeah it says power toggle for the power button. All the other buttons look like they are mapped correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelSage Posted January 27 Author Report Share Posted January 27 Hi Nathan, Thanks for the reply, I tried replacing toggle with power on (and power off for off) and it still didn't work unfortunately. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelSage Posted Thursday at 07:30 AM Author Report Share Posted Thursday at 07:30 AM I've had a couple more attempts and still nothing, I think this might have to wait until the learning feature becomes available. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
