Confused.  The LG remote will always turn the LG TV on, of course.  Are you trying to use the LG remote to change channels on the X1 box?  I don't think that's possible.  The X1 box uses its own RF and can be controlled with IR commands.   As far as I know, the Magic remote doesn't have a way to send commands to the XG1v4

@BruceW That's basic HDMI-CEC for a few limited functions and does not include changing channels, the thing the OP is asking about.  I have two LG OLEDs paired with XG1v4s and Denon receivers and have found the LG Universal Control functions are next to useless.  Do you have a different experience?
