Playbar IR

The playbar offers 2 IR sensors. I've been using the side or edge IR sensor and now would like to change and use the other IR senor. I cannot get the other senor to work. The senor light will not respond.

Hello there, rwmoore73. Thanks for posting and welcome to the Community. The PLAYBAR IR receiver in use is automatically determined by the physical orientation of the player itself. This is done through the use of a gyroscope in real time. Depending if the PLAYBAR is wall mounted or laid flat on a table the appropriate IR receiver will be enabled automatically.

Here is a topic where we dive deeper into the IR sensors on the PLAYBAR.

Hope you found this to be helpful!
Building community is like building a garden. You build the frame, till the ground, plant the seeds, feed the plants & sometimes you gotta pull the weeds.
