Remotes

[Mrsmotz]

I just purchased a new Highsense Roku tv and a Onn sound bar. The sound bar is connected with the optical cord. Is there a way to operate the volume with the Roku remote instead of the separate sound bar remote?

Sorry but no. Roku remotes only control Tv's by IR. If your Soundbar were connected via hdmi, then might be able to control it via cec. But optical, no way.

I get that. But the Onn sound bar does not have an HDMI port. I tried hdmi to usb because there is a usb port on the sound bar. That connection did not produce sound.

Get a universal remote like One-For-All urc-7935 streamer remote:

It's a one device remote that actually can control three devices, tv, Streamer, and Soundbar. Different areas of the remote are for different type of devices. Check ebay:
