Hi guys and gals,
This one is driving me crazy. I got a new X85 (55in) and I have a Samsung HT-C6600 that I'm trying to control using Bravia Sync. When I first connected the two devices, my TV remote started controlling the home theater immediately, but for some reason once I used the old remote for the home theater, it seemed to disconnect entirely and I can't get it to reconnect at all.
The TV recognises it in the 'connected devices' list, but even when I pull up the Bravia Sync menu (Sync Menu button), it just doesn't respond. I've tried disabling then re-enabling the Anytime+ mode on the blu-ray player itself, but nothing seems to work.
Other than a factory reset of all the devices, any ideas?
Hi there
Try the following:
Hopefully this works
Cheers
Thanks for the reply.
I've managed to get the sync menu in control of the home theater, to an extent, but the Sony controller still won't do things like pause, rewind etc.
Not sure what else to try, other than buying a Harmony remote.
Additionally, when I try to hit 'pause' or change menu options, it says "feature not available".
Hi there
I can only think of that certain functions of Bravia Sync are just not compatible with Samsung BD Theatre im afraid. Even though the more generic term is HDMI-CEC, is appears that many manufacturers implement it slightly differently.
Cheers
You may try to lower the level of integration to basic in the Bravia sync setting of your tv... In this way you will not be able to use any button of the TV remote on the attached device ( just switch on-off change the input automatically volume) but at least you should not get any error in the communication between the two devices...
