    Hello
    I treated myself to a new LG TV.
    Since LG does not support DTS, I connected my Zidoo to the soundbar.
    Everything works fine, except for the soundbar with Zidoo's remote control.
    So I can either turn it down or turn it up.
    With my old TV it worked without any problems, because the Zidoo was also connected to the soundbar.
    How can I adjust it?
    Didn't find anything.
    thanks

    Have CEC switched on, switched off, system data deleted, disconnected from the mains.
    I connected Zidoo directly to the TV.
    Soundbar switched off and TV speakers switched on. Nothing worked.
    Just didn't do a factory reset.
    I don't think that's any good either.
    I think this is Zidoo's fault.
    I can operate my Zidoo with the TV remote control.

    As @Markswift2003 will say "CEC is the work of the Devil". I bought a small cec-less adapter and all my kit plays nicely now :)

    So this is Zidoo's fault and not TV? Can we even contact Zidoo to get better?
    I Have LG Oled C1 and Samsung Soundbar.
    with Sony ran it without any problems.

    You have a Sony soundbar and it works for volume control from the Zidoo remote when HDMI passthrough is selected in Zidoo audio options?
    I have tried to contact @mirror a few times about this issue, but have not received any reply.
    Also, I have informed tech support about this problem, and the reply was "HDMI CEC may not match every power amplifier, we will make a improvement about it later".
    If there will be more of us who write to them, maybe it will be fixed sooner than later.

    Ok, for a minute I thought you've got HDMI CEC volume working on Sony soundbar...
    Does HDMI CEC work with your LG TV directly without the soundbar?

    For me the problem is with the LG connection. Soundbar is the same.
