Samsung TVs use HDMI-CEC (Anynet+) for device control

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Samsung TVs utilize a feature called Anynet+, which is their implementation of HDMI-CEC, to allow connected devices to communicate and control each other. This functionality enables a single remote to manage multiple devices, such as a soundbar or game console, and can automate input switching when a device is turned on. While generally beneficial for simplifying home entertainment setups, users may encounter occasional issues like unwanted input changes or devices turning on/off unexpectedly, which can often be resolved by checking settings on both the TV and connected devices, or by reseating cables and updating firmware.
