Hello,
I have a 55" Linsar 55LED900T - 4K LED TV and I bought an LG SJ4R soundbar.
My TV has either an HDMI ARC or Coax out. I tried to connect my soundbar using HDMI ARC, but I can't configure the TV.
If anyone with this TV can advise me, thank you.

Configuration: iPhone / Safari 12.0

    Simple coaxial cable:
    And we don't care much about the color, right?
    And if you can't find it, take this one, which is more common than the one you split or if you only use the white or the red:

      The received box, I believe it wasn't working; no light was coming out of the optical port, so I returned it to Amazon. For now, I leave it connected via optical to my Freebox.

    Hello,
    This damn HDMI ARC is causing quite a few problems, have you configured it on the soundbar as well?
    Otherwise, your TV has a digital coaxial output and your soundbar has an optical input, buy a converter, this one for example:

    Simple RCA cable between TV and converter
    Optical cable between converter and soundbar

      Normally it says that my soundbar should recognize directly when an arc is connected.
      Otherwise, I will take the product you are suggesting
      Could I not connect my Freebox directly to the soundbar with an optical cable instead?
      Thank you very much for the reply

      But you're welcome.... ;)
      Oh, but you didn't say you were getting TV through a box, so yes, it's simpler to plug the soundbar directly into the box via optical.

      On the other hand, since I have a PS4 Slim, it's dead for connecting it directly to the soundbar if I understood correctly?

      And what is the audio output connectivity of your PS4?

      Well, on the Slim models, there doesn't seem to be any besides the HDMI for the TV, otherwise Bluetooth, but you can only connect peripherals like controllers, keyboards, etc. Soundbars are not supported.
      Otherwise, could you show me an example of a simple coaxial cable because I find a lot of them?
      Thanks
