If you're having problems with. your Vizio M51a-H6, M512a-H6, and M51ax-J6 SoundBar, a good place to start is making sure the firmware is up to date.
You can download the latest Firmware version here:

I just did this. Followed your video and it worked. My speaker was on 1.3..0.7 before the update. The upload from the USB to the speaker took 7 minutes. It finishes with "Updated." Thank you so much.
Did it change anything
Other than all the changes Vizio says the new firmware does? I didn’t personally notice anything but happy it’s updated.
I used your video to update my Vizio soundbar. Thank you so much!
Time will tell whether the eArc disconnect issue is repaired or not. But, for now I can tell you that the sound difference is palpable for sure!! 😮🤯
Thank you again! 🙏
LMAO at pairing mode at the end. Thanks for this vid I was driving myself insane restarting my soundbar every day before watching tv hopefully my arc problems will be in the past now.
Fingers crossed! 🤞 yeah that voice is a bit unexpected 🤣
Thanks m8 from across the pond !
You’re welcome! Where abouts are you? I’ve never seen Vizio in the UK?!
Me ayudo mucho para actualizar la barra de sonido y no tardo mucho, gracias!!!
i didn't realize that my thumb drive was ExFat formatted so i was a having a hard time updating the firmware. Thanks to this vid firmware is now up to date.
i had tried to update my soundbar many times previously with zero luck. I tried again today just because Im tired of the HDMI eArc disconnects and all the other issues. I started playing this video while the bar was doing all its blinking and suddenly i hear the magic word "Updated". Im so glad! this whole time its been in the 1.1 firmware and now its all up to date!
fixed my e-arc problem! thank youuu!
I was reading that the current version right now isn't downloaded able because it isn't updated on the vizio page even though it says you can download the firmware to the usb it isn't the real firmware
Thank you!
"pairing, paring paring, " the soundbar said unrelentlessly, lmao. THanks for the help! I was confused as to what the top 2 blinking lights mean, still not sure if its updated.
"I am working on a Mac because I'm better than you" lol thank you for saying that i was watching this on a mac.
How has it been working btw? I just got mine during Black Friday deal
It’s much better since the update and also getting a new HDMI cable 👍
I'm doing exactly the same process but my memory is formatted in FAT32 (as it says in the guide on the official website) I'm using a PNY 128GB USB 3.0 and the sound bar is not recognizing it, do you think it will be due to the size of the memory? Or will it be because it is USB 3.0?
I'm having this problem too right now, any update?
@@kellitowry2858 Yes, just used an old USB 2.0 16gb flash drive and worked
My subwoofer bass is too low. How can I fix that?
Let me k ow if you figure out why on your base. All of a sudden my base went from year of awesome to almost none. Don’t k ow if blown or what
@motocr101able I have never found any solution. Apparently it's a common thing in those models. Have you tried to reset it?
Why you say FAAT like that? 😂😂
My firmware version was so loud!!!!
What do you mean? The sound is louder after the update?
the automated message that tells you the firmware version stuck in max volume. @@GYMJAX
Oh great I’m too stupid to even use this sound bar ! Old and dumb is not fun !
This won't fix it permanently. eARC is still broken with this version too. Only solution is to buy a new soundbar or stop using eARC for this model.
It’s strange… with the cheap Roku TV the soundbar never drops out or has issues… it’s only with the LG tv that was a lot more expensive that I have eARC connection problems 🤷♂️ This update plus a new HDMI cable seems to have fixed it 🤞
A mi si me funciono, quiza sea que tu barra este mal o no es compatible a tu tv
So if you’re not using a Mac, do you still have to reformat your thumb drive to ms fat
