Enabling ARC and CEC settings on a Westinghouse TV

Hi, My Westinghouse TV does not have a CEC nor ARC indicated on back of TV. Only HDMI. Can I activate a new Roku Streaming Stick 4K despite this? thanks

 

  • Tonydelplato, CEC isn't generally noted on the back of TVs and ARC is mostly for sound bars.  You don't need either to connect a Roku device, stick or otherwise.

  • Hi, JLopp.

    We appreciate you reaching us here in the Roku Community!

    We'd be happy to provide you with the resolution to pair your remote.

    If the power and volume buttons on your remote have stopped working, try updating your Roku device to the most recent software.
    To manually update your software:

    1. Navigate to Settings
    2. Select System
    3. Select System update
    4. Select Check now

    After that, you may follow the steps posted above to set up your remote.

    Furthermore, you may visit this support article on why my RokuĀ® voice remote does not control the power and volume on my TV.

    If you need further clarification and assistance, please don't hesitate to let us know.

    Regards,

      The TV volume control works on the roku remote, but not the on/off function. CEC controls are nonexistent on the TV or in the ROKU setup menu. Is there a solution

      The TV volume control works on the roku remote for the Westinghouse TV, but not the on/off function. CEC controls are nonexistent on the TV or in the ROKU setup menu. Is there a solution for enabling the on/off function and the volume function at the same time on the remote?
