Connecting sound bar and tv with Direc tv streaming

We just signed up for Direct tv streaming. I need to connect soundbar and tv to 1 remote the one they sent (or should we buy a different remote) and our premium channels like paramount plus, Netflix, Hulu, Disney, Angel, peacock etc.. I’ve called for help and didn’t get help I need. I lost my soundbar remote also! Can anyone here help me please? Ty

Glad to have you, @Cheryl7943. Don't worry about buying a new remote—the one we sent can handle your TV, soundbar, and apps all on its own. Here's how to set it up:


- Your Soundbar:
Press HOME on your remote, go to the gear icon (Settings) > System > Remote & Devices > Program Your Remote. Choose Speaker System, pick your soundbar brand, and follow the on-screen prompts to lock in your volume.


- Your Apps:
Just press the APPS button on your remote (or find "Apps" on the Home screen). Click on Netflix, Hulu, or Disney+, and log in with your DIRECTV credentials or existing passwords for those services to link them up.
