I bought a onn sound bar and hard wired with a digital cable to my insignia tv I had to add on a connector because my tv doesn't have a digital port. I can't get the tv sound to go to the sound bar.

Go into audio settings and activate digital cable

I would first try new cables, if not, then the board needs replacement.

SOURCE: No Sound In Home Theater with Dish HDTV DVR Dual Mode Remote Connection

I have a high definition Polaroid tv which I bought in 2007. I have it connected to Dish tv. It worked fine at first. Now when I use the Dish tv remote, the television won't power up. The red light, which appears when the television is off turns blue when I attempt to turn the tv on, but the screen stays black. Why won't the television come on anymore?

SOURCE: Gurus, I just bought Samsung Home Theater System which i connected to my Hitachi TV with HDMI cable. I have a Optical Cable going from HT to my TV Optical port. I have another connection from my cable

On the remote control for the Samsung Home Theater System look at the bottom left to a button that says "MODE", those moods change the sound each speaker gives off. if that doesn't work, you might need new wiring because there are other wires that are more durable than the ones that come with it, much better too.

Onn 5.1 soundbar works when watching cable but when I try to watch Netflix I have no sound

How is the sound bar connected to your system? Sound bars usually only supply sound from the item it is wired to. For example if it is directly connected to your cable box then it will only supply sound for cable channels. Try connecting it directly to the Audio Out connectors on the back of the TV. This method should produce audio for anything you play on the TV like Cable, DVDs and any built in Apps like Netflix.
The TV itself may have settings you need to change and this could also be the case for the Sound Bar.

Got an ONN TV and an ONN soundbar. Hooked up via RCA cable. TV audio in PCM mode. Soundbar in AUX mode. Can't get any sound from soundbar. What have I missed?

PCM mode is a digital audio file that should be sent to the soundbar via an optical or coaxial digital audio cable. The coaxial digital audio cable uses an RCA plug but not the L/R stereo channels of analog audio. The aux input is usually the 3.5 MM cable from a computer, CD or MP3 player or a cell phone or tablet.

First, which type of RCA cable is connected between the sound bar and the TV? Second, are you sure that the TV connection is an audio out? (A number of recent TVs have only one audio output. This means there is only the optical audio out and not even a headphone jack.)

Once you double-check the input at the sound bar, choose the Line In input if you are using the stereo RCA cable. If you are using the Optical input, select that input. Use either the Mode button or the specific input button on the remote. Then double-check that the TV is set for the appropriate audio out.

I hope this helps. Please add a comment with the model of the TV and the sound bar for further information. I looked at the ONB18SB001 documentation for some of this. The manual for this Onn soundbar is available at Manuals Lib. See https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1498038/Onn-Onb18sb001.html?page=12#manual for the list of input modes and the input to which they correspond. Here is the image of the inputs on the back of the ONB18SB001: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1498038/Onn-Onb18sb001.html?page=7#manual .

My Samsung tv model number UA40C5000QF does not have a hmdi arc port and we have bought a Samsung sound bar but it cannot be connected as it does not have that port

Your sound bar can be connected to the UA40C500QF. Get an appropriate audio cable based on the sound bar. You'll either need a optical digital audio cable or an analog audio cable with a 3.5 mm plug on at least one side. (If your sound bar has an AUX input, then a 3.5 mm to 3.5 mm M/M audio cable is appropriate. Otherwise, you may need an RCA (M/M) to 3.5 mm audio cable or some sort of RCA to 3.5 mm adapter (F on one side, M on the other).) Connect this cable to the audio out on the TV (headphone or digital audio) and the appropriate audio in on the sound bar.

Set the sound bar source to the chosen input (Aux or Digital In (D.In on some systems). Next, set the TV to use External speakers. This is in the Audio sub-menu. The volume will now be controlled by the sound bar volume control.

You can still use the HDMI cable (HDMI out to any HDMI in on the TV) if you want to use the TV screen when changing the settings on the sound bar. Just change the TV source to that HDMI port with the Source button on the TV remote or on the TV (the left-most button on the front panel). Then change your source back to the video signal for the TV to view items connected to the other HDMI ports. If your sound bar has an HDMI input, you would similarly use set the TV to the sound input to watch that source.

I hope this helps. See the manual for the UA40C500Q for the details on setting the speakers to External speakers. The manual is available on the support page: https://www.samsung.com/au/support/model/UA40C5000QFXXY/ . The current link to the manual is http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201003/20100316163048500/BN68-02727A-00Eng-0225.pdf .

Hello, I just bought a small insignia sound bar to boost the sound of my TV. I do have it working, but at the cost of this annoying/loud buzzing/feedback sound ? I am at a loss of how to get rid of ?

Hello Jon, as the first suggestion, replace the cable that goes from the audio output of your TV, to the audio input of your Insignia soundbar
On the other hand says that TV you have, indicates brand and model, indicates the model of the Sound Bar Insignia
Also tell me through which connection the TV is connected to the Insignia soundbar
With this data I will be able to look for a better possible solution to the problem
I await your comment
Greetings Franco Dosil

Hola Jon, como primer sugerencia, reemplaza el cable que va desde la salida de audio de tu televisor, a la entrada de audio de tu barra de sonido Insignia
Por otro lado comenta que televisor tienes, indica marca y modelo, indica el modelo de la Barra de sonido Insignia
Tambi?n cu?ntame a trav?s de que conexi?n esta unido el televisor a la barra de sonido Insignia
Con estos datos podre buscar una mejor soluci?n posible al problema
Espero tu comentario
Saludos Franco Dosil

Trying to install onn 37" wireless 2.0 Channel Soundbar to Emerson tv modle LF401EM5. Multiple problems!

The onn cannot be connected to the Emerson wirelessly.
If it is connected to the Emerson TV, there has to be a wire plugged in to the audio output on the TV and the left and right input connectors on the sound bar. I have heard that you will only get about as much sound from the sound bar as the TV.
You cannot use the digital audio outputs.

Why does the soundbar play with Roku but no sound comes from the bar when on regular t.v.

You have to go into the audio set up screen on the TV and direct TV sound to the output cable connector you used for the sound bar. Example: Optical, digital.

What must I do to connect a sound bar to my tv ?

Before you buy a sound bar look on the back of your TV to see if there is a digital port and /or a fiber optic port. The fiber port may have a cover on it so the red laser won't cause eye damage. If your TV is so equipped, then get a sound bar with a fiber optic connection. Not many older TV's , flat screen or nor have blue tooth capability. Unless you know for sure your TV does, don't expect the sound bar to have it too.

Cannot figure out how to connect my new sound bar to my older TV

Use a high speed HDMI cable form the TV to the sound bar. HDMI cables carry sound as well as picture signals. Refer to your TV's user manual http://www.hdtvsolutions.com/pdf/52527-62528.pdf
and the Samsung product support page http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/HW-F450/ZA for assistance
