    Hi Edwin

    When using the IR you can only control the volume of the Primary player if you are not in a fixed group situation. 

    If you wish to control the volume of the FLEXes you will have to make a Home Theatre Group. You do realise when you group the Stereo Paired FLEXes with the SOUNDBAR, you are simply rebroadcasting the L and R front channels to the FLEXes and not creating a true surround experience as intended by the film.

    Consider selecting WIDER MODE in the Audio Settings of the SOUNDBAR for a better experience...

    Hi  Tony,

    Yes I realize that we have no surround sound, but I'm not the only one in the house I can't expect that everyone group and ungroup the whole day the speakers if they want to watch a movie in surround or listening  to music with all speakers in stereo.

    So we decide to make 1 group with 2 speakers in stereo and combined is to 1 set with the soundbar.

    What about the volume I have a workaround, ungrouped the 2 FLEXes and learn my IR volume code on each FLEX, grouped again as stereo combined with the soundbar. This temporary solution works for me as expected!

    I hope we can expect soon an option to create multiple groups with the same speakers that makes the use a lot easier.

    WOW! Great Tip... I will pass that idea along to our Support Crew Bullpen as a workaround.

    Thanks for #LivingHiFi

    Hi Tony,

    I believe this is fixed in firmware 3.6.3 is that correct?
