(Or the model before?)With more and more "smart features" being placed on TVs can these easily be controlled...a) By IP With ease using the SR-250c) Staying within the C4 App on an iPad?For and c) Or do people just learn a way to flip between Apps and use the remote for channel change, volume etc?Many thanks Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technomark Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Hello,Is anyone able to answer this quick question?(Before I plan / do anything else, I really wanted to understand has the need for IR bugs been removed when using the Samsung smart TVs?)Many thanks Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bk Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Hi Mark,To the best of my knowledge, the Samsung Smart TV's are not able to be turned on using their network card so an ir transmitter is required to turn them on.A number of people have confirmed this, it is possibly to give the set as lower energy rating as possible.

You must use IR to turn the TV on/off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
