  1. To address the concerns about 2 remotes, the chromecast with Google TV and I believe the new Google TV streamer has IR in the remote, and you can have it set to directly control the volume of your soundbar. So you can have a set where the volume controls the soundbar, and the power controls the tv. No matter if your hdmi tv or cables support it

  2. 37:00 you don't need EARC to control a device via another over HDMI, you just need CEC which has existed since HDMI 1.0 Wiring is mandatory in all connectors but the feature is optional. But most modern TVs should support it.

  3. @Marques: You can plug Google TV Dongle in the soundbar and then soundbar to TV. Your soundbar generally is able to send Google TV Stream to the TV.

  4. If you have an E~ARC soundbar with multiple HDMI inputs you can control everything with one remote. I do this with my JBL soundbar.

  5. 16:53 I first saw it skipping an ad on your podcast

    30:32 Where my mind first went
    1:28:50 What's David laughing so much about?
