Hi Sheebs, Thank you for sharing your review. Please know you can control your connected devices (like cable boxes, Blu-ray players, or game consoles) using your U7900FD TV’s remote by following these steps: 1. Connect & Power On the Device Connect the external device to one of your TV’s HDMI ports and power it on. Your TV may automatically detect the device and switch inputs. If it doesn’t, continue with the steps below. 2. Launch Universal Remote Setup. On your TV, navigate to: Home > left directional key > Connected Devices > Universal Remote Setup. When the connected device appears, select it to begin setup. 3. Start the Setup. Select Universal Remote on the Home screen, choose Start, and ensure your device is powered on. When your desired device appears, select it and follow the on-screen instructions. Setup may vary slightly based on device type. 4. Finalize and Test. Once complete, your Samsung TV and remote will remember the connected device and its HDMI port. If the device doesn’t respond after setup, you may need to re-register it or adjust its position for better signal reception. Helpful Tips: • If your external device is a Samsung product, Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) may let you control it automatically using your TV remote with no extra setup. • Make sure nothing blocks the IR signal between your TV and external devices. • If you’re having difficulty, try adjusting the device’s position for better remote signal reception. • This feature may not be supported on all external devices or setups.
