    TV and Fireplace Talk to Each Other!

    While driveway camping in our new Reflection 150 series 295rl with a TCL TV and an electric fireplace, I discovered that if I used the fireplace remote to lower the "flame", the volume of the TV also was lowered! It would even display the volume setting on the screen. I could only lower the volume not raise it with the fireplace remote. I wonder if anyone else has seen this same frequency phenomenon? When the current situation calms down, I might call GD to point this out but it's not something I am going to loose sleep over.

    It’s just a light, so any device can see another device’s remote signal. Blink pattern determines the function, and it looks like they selected the same patterns.

    We don't use the fireplace remote, but, occasionally, the TV remote turns off the fireplace.

    We replaced our TCL TV when it died and now have a Visio TV and this happens, we didn't notice it happening with the TCL.

    Our TCL tv died and was replaced by a Sharp, and now the new tv remote messes with the fireplace. No big deal, just annoying.
