Samsung IR blaster works on Xbox One?

Hrakso · Oct 29, 2015

Hi,

I have connected a small Samsung IR blaster from my TV in to my Xbox One. Does this work with Xbox? I can't seem to get it to work, but then again I can't find the correct cable tv tuner in the list either so I don't know what is wrong.

My cable company is Get in Norway and my box is Get Box ii, and I can't find find a remote code which works. Google it for picture.

Sorry I can't seem to search on this forum if it has been posted before. Thank you.

Best regards,

Oskar

:)

Help with Xbox One S Soundbar Control

I bought an Xbox One S today. I have a Samsung soundbar, model HW-D550/ZA. I am having problems getting the One S's IR blast to send the right signal to control volume and power to my soundbar. Signals sent to the TV work perfectly so I know the IR blast
works. I know my soundbar works because it accepts volume control from its own remote as well as through the SmartGlass app. Additionally, I had an original Xbox One that worked with my soundbar via Kinnect's IR blast.

When I enter my model number in device control it think shows up, but the Xbox does not send the right signal. Any suggestions on how to get this to work with the One S? Should I enter a remote code directly? And if so, where do I find that?

Using Xbox One IR Output Does the Kinect IR Blaster Still Work

I have some compenents in a cabinet and I was going to get an IR cable to plug into the output on the Xbox One. My question is if I do that does the IR blaster in the Kinect stop working or is the additional IR blaster plugged in the Xbox One in addition
to the Kinect IR Blaster? I want to make usre both still work so that I can control the devices both in and out side cabinets.

Sorry, this is now solved. The problem is that the range is very short. The blaster has to be less than 1 meter away from the tuner.

Hi, if it is an Original Xbox One you would need an IR blaster, like the one built into kinect. If it is an S or X the IR blaster is built in.

IR out: Infrared output port for IR blaster (optional; IR blaster not included).

The IR port is designed to control devices via an IR transmitter such as a home theater system.

IR extension cables etc.

to turn the tv on and off uses the ir blaster function, if that has stopped working then you may need to retrain it, all the xbox's in my house still work fine with turning the tv on and off viaa the IR blaster.

Did you setup you cable box in the OneGuide/tv settings section? Make sure the ir sensor is exactly on the ir receiver of you cable box, if RS off even a few mm it could stop it from working. You made sure your purchased a ir blaster wire and not a ir
receiver wire? If the the model of you cable box is in the Xbox one settings when you set it up then it should work, just make sure you are directly on the ir receiver of your box.

I use a cable in the livingroom because the Kinect blaster doesn't work for some reason so I have a 3 way Ir blaster wire that works grea but as I said you need to put it directly on your ir receiver for your cable box and if you want to control your tv
you need a cable with atleast 2 ir blasters and fix them to both your tv ir and cable box ir receiver.
