Playbar Switching Between TV and Music

Ive read through this thread and am still unable to find any way to switch back to television audio. As far as I can tell, I’ve navigated every possible option in the application.. Once I select a music service, there is no option anywhere in the app (at least that i can find) to switch it back to television audio.

Only way I can switch back to television audio once I select a music service is to stop the music service and then power off and on my tv.

Where are you using the app (what device)?

While I have the room "living room" selected, which is where my PLAYBAR is, I then select the "browse" button, and one of the inputs listed is "TV". This is on an iOS device, using 8.3

Thanks Airgetlam!! If I select the room and then click “browse” I am able to select tv audio..

While I did try the “browse” button before, it was only showing me my Pandora stations.. The “browse” button is apparently multi functional and context sensitive...meaning it browses different things depending on where in the app you are.. once I backed up to the top level menu, (up from the pandora music stations), I saw the tv audio.

Yes, it depends on which "room" you have selected.

If you've already browsed to radio stations etc you have to go back a few pages in the "browse" menu to show TV..

You can also just tap Browse twice to ensure you’re at the top menu. Just like the iPhone home button takes you to the most recent home screen page on first press, then on second press takes you to the first screen. A common UI pattern on iOS.

This seems like a similar but different issue. My Playbar+two Play: Ones work great when I turn on my TV and when I play a music source from the app or say from Spotify. When I play something on the TV the balance is heavier on the Playbar working like a surround system. The trouble I have is if I just play music from Spotify (TV off) the sound comes from the three speakers but it's still in a surround sound mode where the Play Ones are very low volume. I thought maybe I could set up a separate room for playing music but that doesn't seem to be the right way to go about fixing this. I appreciate any help and apologies if this was covered somewhere I missed.

No, during music playback (which is a different input on the device), there's some extra settings you should be looking at.

Open up the controller app, go to more, then settings, and then room settings. Click on the room name that has your PLAYBAR in it. Then click on Advanced Audio, and Surround Settings.This page is where you can set the volume of the surrounds when it's in TV mode, or Music mode Note the Music Playback switch, and I'd recommend that you flip that to Full, rather than ambient, it will make the surround speakers a full pair fo stereo speakers, rather than "support" speakers for the PLAYBAR.
