Can’t connect Bluetooth speaker to Tv

[EwanWhite3112]

Hi there I got a Samsung ue43tu7020 last year and just treated myself to a Bluetooth speaker however I cannot connect the speaker to the tv or find any Bluetooth settings in the menus. Please help thanks you in advance

Try Settings > Sound > Sound Output > Bluetooth Speaker List and select your speaker which needs to be in pairing mode.

Hi I’ve done that but the Bluetooth speaker list doesn’t show up as an option only tv and optical

If there's nothing there your TV isn't BT compatible 😦 https://www.samsung.com/uk/tvs/uhd-4k-tv/tu7020-43-inch-crystal-uhd-smart-tv-ue43tu7020kxxu/#specs

@EwanWhite3112: Can you try closing down any apps that you have open, if applicable, then checking Settings > Sound > Sound Output > Bluetooth Speaker List once again to see if the option is available for selection? If not, head to Home > Source > Connection Guide > Audio Device > Bluetooth to find further details on how to connect. Please be aware that you will be unable to connect a Bluetooth Speaker if you currently have audio devices connected via Settings > Sound > Wi-Fi Speaker Surround Setup.
