You can tell by pointing it at a wall away from the tv if it is rf the signal will bounce off and hit the tv if it is ir it would have to be pointed directly at it.
Two samsung tvs same room remote.
The elegant solution is a logitech harmony companion previously smart control hub based system where the hub can blast the tvs thankfully different ir one stb a mini blaster can control the other stb hidden uiquely.
Both tvs were purchased within the last 6 8 months.
Samsung techs have different opinions.
I use the 32 to watch tv with a direct connection to cable box while playing xbox one on the main tv.
I m assuming you are not using smart remotes and if that is the case you can t get around the issue unfortunately.
Every time i was trying to control one tv it was also affecting the other.
Hi all i have a samsung ks8000 65 and then a samsung 5500 32 mounted above it.
The family room tv is model un65ks950df.
I put a little piece of plastic tube around the ir emitters of the 2 samsung remotes to make the beam more directive.
For that reason alone getting two different.
Most if not all universal remotes or even the ones the manufacturer provide are rf now.
If you buy two tvs of the same make whatever button you press on one tv s remote is going to do the same on the other as in volume mute etc.
If you press the channel up button on 1 remote and both change at the same time then most likely they have the same type of transceiver.
Youre suggesting that if i try alternate comcast box codes for samsung it ll somehow cancel out the potential duplicity of the signal reception from these samsung remotes.
I have 2 different samsung tv s in the same room one is used for my pc monitor and the other is a 40 smart tv.
The kitchen tv is model number un40ku6290f.
That solved my problem of interference.
I demonstrate and sell samsung tv s for a living.
I programmed my logitech harmony to control both however the remote cannot control either tv independently.
You need only one stb so equipped hidden from the other the other tv can use standard remote.
Tvs made by the same manufacturer will usually use identically coded remotes or very.
