How can I get Comcast to detect my Samsung TV?
Are you having trouble connecting your Samsung TV to your cable box? Do you turn on your TV with the Samsung remote? That is most likely the problem. When the TV is turned on, it does not “wake” the cable box for some reason. This happened to me with an XG1v4. When I used the TV remote to turn on the TV, it worked sometimes and didn’t work other times. Otherwise, it would show the cable box’s screensaver. To wake it up, I had to hit a button on the Xfinity remote. Then it’s done!
Run “Setup TV” to see if that helps. To begin, make sure that all of your HDMI devices are connected and turned on. To control your TV, you’ll need to pair the Xfinity remote. Select Source, highlight TV, press up, and enter to Set Up TV on the Samsung Hub. Add/confirm all of your devices by following the prompts. (NOTE: Using Setup TV does not result in a Factory Reset.) Only the way your TV communicates with HDMI devices is reset. Installed Apps and other TV settings are unaffected.)
From now on, you’ll probably have to turn on your TV with your Xfinity remote. Otherwise, the TV remote may or may not function. I finally caved in and turned on the TV with the Xfinity remote.
