I have my apple tv plugged into the optical out. I can also use the bluetooth feature of my sound bar if i so desire with my phone or my iPad. (apple Tv doesn’t have a bluetooth out like that) but the remote is easily laid out and easy to navigate. I have the Samsung Airtrack, and it does fairly well for what I use it for. Hope that helps. > On Jul 15, 2015, at 1:04 PM, Brian Fischler <brianfisch...@me.com> wrote: > > Hi Tim, > > what is the setup you have going out of the optical?
