In the world of home audio, Vizio soundbars have become a popular choice for enhancing the TV viewing experience. One intriguing feature that sets Vizio soundbars apart is their use of input lights.<\/span><\/p>\n These small but illuminating indicators serve a crucial role in helping users navigate their audio sources effortlessly. In this article, we’ll delve into the world of Vizio soundbar input lights, decoding their colors and patterns to help you make the most of your entertainment system.<\/span><\/p>\n Vizio soundbar input lights are designed to indicate the current state of the soundbar. This should tell when you have your audio plugged in and if the soundbar can transmit sound.<\/span><\/p>\n These input lights are usually located on the front panel of the soundbar and can be useful for quickly identifying which input source is currently active. This is particularly helpful when you have multiple devices connected to the soundbar, such as a TV, gaming console, Blu-ray player, or streaming device.<\/span><\/p>\n There are typically four input lights on a Vizio Soundbar; HDMI 1, Optical, Bluetooth, and Other Inputs\/HDMI 2. Each input source is assigned a specific color or pattern, and the corresponding input light will illuminate or flash to indicate the active source. Conversely, when the soundbar isn\u2019t receiving any audio signal, the light will turn off.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Newer Vizio soundbars support HDMI input. These models come with a specified input light that comes with a specific color or pattern for this source which is commonly used for connecting the soundbar to the TV.<\/span><\/p>\n Although not every Vizio soundbar comes with an optical or digital optical input, if your model has one and it\u2019s connected, there\u2019s usually a unique input light to indicate its connection.<\/span><\/p>\n During pairing mode, this input light is generally expected to be flashing, then become stable when paired. Also, the Bluetooth pairing light can either be a unique color from the other input types, or multiple colors.<\/span><\/p>\n If you\u2019re using a more recent Vizio soundbar model, you\u2019re likely to have more than three input lights, and the fourth light will depend on your specific soundbar series and model. It can either be an aux-in, USB, or HDMI input.<\/span><\/p>\n Some models can come with a single light whose flashing pattern will indicate the kind of active input, and then there are others with individual input lights. While that\u2019s the case, the specifics of the input lights and colors will vary by soundbar model. To know the precise one for yours, you\u2019ll need to contact Vizio customer support or read your user manual.<\/span><\/p>\n If all of the input lights on your Vizio soundbar are flashing, it means that the soundbar is having trouble detecting an audio signal. This can be caused by several things, such as a loose cable or a problem with the audio source. To fix it, you may have to consult a troubleshooting guide or contact customer support.<\/span><\/p>\n Each input source is assigned a specific color or pattern, and the corresponding light illuminates or flashes to indicate the active source.<\/span><\/p>\n You can switch between input sources using the remote control that comes with your soundbar. There should be a dedicated button or menu option for this purpose. Alternatively, you can press the input function button on the body of the soundbar till it gets to the input you want to use.<\/span><\/p>\n No, Vizio soundbar input lights are not customizable. These lights are designed to indicate the current state of the soundbar, and they can\u2019t be changed by the user.<\/span><\/p>\n No Vizio soundbar currently can have its input lights disabled. If you\u2019re concerned about the light, you may want to reposition the soundbar such that it doesn\u2019t reflect in your eyes, or try a different soundbar model.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the world of home audio, Vizio soundbars have become a popular choice for enhancing the TV viewing experience.
