    I was one of these people that didnt believe it at first becuase I've had two diffrent roku TV's and could never get any other soundbar to work with it other then a roku soundbar. It would have sound while on the roku home page but in apps there wouldn't be any sound, I just bought my vizio soundbar yesterday and tried to hook it up to my Hisense Roku tv and it didnt work. I was gonna return it today but I thought I'd give it another try and BOOM! After I watched this video I plugged in the optical cord and help the power for 5 sec and now it works on all apps!!!! Thank you so much

    I've had this sound bar I bought over a year ago and never really cared about hooking it up. See I bought it for $25 lol so the cable company here in hillbilly city lol N. Idaho Panhandle near Canada so i reprogrammed the TV'S you see I haven't watched Commercial TV since 1989 so all I used the cable for was internet via Chromecast's so i grabbed my optical cable and went through this video and Shazam lol 😃 now I use the TV cable for music 🎶 on digital playing loud n proud on my $25 Vizio sound bar Thank You

    Thank you for taking the time to help! I think the trick did it when I actually turned on a show and then clicked the Input button to allow it to then search for the connected speaker and it started working! Prior to that, it was on Bluetooth and just spinning and spinning (the LED lights were searching and searching but I think the problem was I wasn’t in a video! 🤦🏻‍♀️) So thanks again because now we are golden!

  • @StayPositive-sd8op

    My vizio TV and sound bar is about 5 years old and I ended up getting Comcast and they send you this little black streaming box with my Wi-Fi service because I use an antenna for TV. But when I got it all hooked up the sound bar stopped playing anything out of it which the light didn't even go on to sound bar. So just recently I was going through some audio settings on the TV I think and switching the digital audio out and an analog audio out and all of a sudden the sound bar light came on and it started playing. And then within a couple minutes of course the Comcast box pops up on the TV that it has a update so I went ahead and let the update go through that it seems to be on every day it shows and then the video stopped working again. You have any recommendations? I just have the Stream box hooked to HDMI to the TV and then I have the optical cord that I bought and that goes from the soundbar to the TV because my last one I thought was broke when it stopped working so I was trying to use RCA's but nothing worked so I went and bought a new optical cord the other day

  • @blakebruner6173
    @blakebruner6173 Рік тому

    If you use the optical audio cable, make sure you are in PCM audio. On your tv, in the audio section of the tv's setup, PCM will be one of the kinds audio to choose from. The list includes Dolby, ATMOS, and such. Without being in the PCM mode, the optical audio cable will make your picture & sound be out of synch. And you will not have control of the bass & treble. Mine had the bass booming to an absurd degree. Almost like if a program showed an ant marching by and each of it's steps were a thunderous boom. Once I got it on PCM, things were fine. Sadly, the TCL tv brand demands that you buy a sound bar.
    I was hoping to learn about all the buttons on the remote. Alas, the Vizio website leaves us low & fro as does this video.
    I'm not a sense-around audio kinda guy, so my older, but same, version's audio is plenty good. I bought mine in 2018 at clearence for almost 50% off. It has the the same remote as in this video.
