Hey everyone, I’ve been trying to figure out how to turn on my Samsung TV without using the remote because it’s always getting lost in the couch cushions! I heard something about HDMI-CEC allowing other devices to control the TV’s power, but I’m not sure how reliable that really is or if it works with all setups. Has anyone here successfully used HDMI-CEC to power on their Samsung TV? Any tips on setting it up would be awesome too!

Hey! I totally get what you mean — losing the remote is super frustrating. HDMI-CEC can definitely help here, but there are a few things to keep in mind. Basically, HDMI-CEC allows devices like your gaming console, Blu-ray player, or streaming box to send commands to your TV, including turning it on or off. The trick is making sure both your TV and connected device support HDMI-CEC and that it’s enabled on both ends. Samsung calls it Anynet+, so you’ll want to dig into the TV settings to activate that. I actually followed a detailed guide I found here which walks you through the steps for turning on the TV without the remote using different methods, including HDMI-CEC. It helped me troubleshoot when it didn’t work at first — remote app for Samsung TV. One thing I learned: some cheaper HDMI cables might not fully support CEC signals, so swapping cables made a difference. Also, if your connected device is in standby or off, it won’t send the power-on signal, so you need to keep it ready to wake the TV. It’s not perfect, but when set up right, it really simplifies things, especially if you often use devices like Roku or PlayStation. Hope this helps!
