I finally got this to work with my setup.

I set the LG magic remote put to work with a Denon soundbar. The S8 accept the IR command from the remote now.

So now I have my "Beovision X" working with only one remote :)

 

Great success!

Well done - how is your setup at present?

Do you still have the Penta’s as fronts, or?

Sure, press the home button and go to the right and click “Device manager”

Choose to add sound bar, make sure you choose optical (not hdmi arc)

Then chose Denon and done.

Now you can set up the S8 as normal 😁

There is a tv - and there is a BV.

I have the wireless Pentas for music, and the Beovision X for picture and sound.

Feels nice to use own names for my stuff

I’ve tried this approach with a 2020 lg cx attached to an S8 connection hub with beolab 7.2.

the s8 can easily learn another remote to control the volume but whether I add an LG or Denon sound bar the LG Magic Remote can never be used in training the S8.

so I can use the speaker with S8 and two remotes ... just can’t get down to just the lg magic remote that can be with the tv.

Then you are doing something wrong.
