However, connecting the universal remote control to Samsung TV may not be obvious to some users.
If you have a newer Genie or Universal remote, it should work with most Samsung TVs.
However, if you have an older model remote, it may not be compatible.
Try using your remotes volume and channel buttons to see if theyre controlling your Samsung TV.
Ensure that your Samsung TV is connected to your DirecTV receiver via HDMI.
Also, ensure that your DirecTV remote and Samsung remote have active batteries that are not worn out.
To test if your remote is programmed correctly, press the POWER button.
If your Samsung TV turns on or off, the programming is successful.
If the programming is successful, press the SELECT button on your DirecTV remote to save the code.
Your DirecTV remote is now programmed to control your Samsung TV.
Even when you follow the instructions carefully, you may encounter some problems.
If you are still having issues, dont hesitate to reach out to DirecTV customer support for further assistance.
