Using a LG Magic Universal remote with my z906 surround system

[Alexander Olsson]

Hi,

I just Bought the LG OLED55C8 with its Universal "Magic Remote" that

should be able to control the sound settings in my accompanying(i bought it for the tv separately ofc, but was told it was compatible with all major sound system brands) LOGITECH z906 sound system.

I'm using a Optical cable from my z906 and in the  OLED55C8 TV settings you can choose about 30 of all the biggest sound manufacturers to link the remote to.

 

To my surprise and disappointment Logitech was not one of them. Is it possible

to choose any of all the other BIG NAMES IN SOUND, besides Logitech so i can

use just the one remote, or will i have to suffer the switching between remotes

all the f-ing time?

 

If it cannot be done, can you, LG, please contact Logitech to get some Firmware over to LGs WebOS system so i can use my z906 as intended?

First, there are no people working for LG here. This is a user to user forum as it says on the top of the page.

But maybe it is possible to configure the Logitech system to work with the LG Remote.

Hola,

Acabo de comprar el LG OLED55C8 con su "Magic Remote" universal que

debería poder controlar la configuración de sonido en mi acompañante (lo compré para la televisión por separado, pero me dijeron que era compatible con todas las principales marcas de sistemas de sonido) Sistema de sonido LOGITECH z906.

Estoy usando un cable óptico de mi z906 y en la configuración de TV OLED55C8 puede elegir entre 30 de los mayores fabricantes de sonido para vincular el control remoto.

 

Para mi sorpresa y decepción, Logitech no era uno de ellos. Es posible

para elegir cualquiera de los otros GRANDES NOMBRES EN SONIDO, además de Logitech para poder

use solo un control remoto, o tendré que sufrir el cambio entre controles remotos

todo el tiempo?

 

Si no se puede hacer, ¿puede usted, LG, ponerse en contacto con Logitech para transferir el firmware al sistema WebOS de LG para que pueda usar mi z906 según lo previsto?

Hola, has resuelto el problema con el Z906? Tengo el mismo problema

PeterV -you say "But maybe it is possible to configure the Logitech system to work with the LG Remote".  Could you please elaborate!

I have a LG TV with magic remote and a set top box for the tv stations. What I did was two things:

I configured the LG TV that I had a set top box. For this you had to vind the manufacturer of the set top box (which was difficult to find). No I can use the remote to control the set top box a bit. I can change channels with the scroll wheel and some other functions. It does its best but is not great.

But I could also use the remote from the set top box to change the volume of the TV and turn on/off the TV. This solution is much better for me.

Just like configuring the LG TV for an other device, maybe it is possible for the Logitech system to add an other remote.

Hi guys, 

same here. Just bought 65UM7100PLA, ordered the magic remote separately. Set-top-box works fine. Now I would like to control the Z906 with it if possible (unfortunately the original remote of the Logitech is damaged at the volume + sign, so I have to jump out of the bed to raise the volume).  Alexander, could you solve it somehow?
