I’ve been experimenting with this for a couple of days, and there doesn’t appear to be a solution. The closest I’ve come is if the Beosystem 3 is in Opt.2, Beosound 4 in Opt.0 and the Beolink Converter is in Opt.2.
Remember, what I’m trying to achieve is for my full system to go to A.Aux when I hit the Phono/N.Radio source.
In that setup I can select both audio and video sources and they work fine when they are activated, but then once activated, commands like up/down or number keys are duplicated. If for example I want to go to radio preset 2, it goes to 22. This, I have little doubt, is because both IR Eyes (Beosytem 3 and Beolink Converter) and receiving the IR signal, and so both are registered.
I’ve tried every other conceivable option setting but none of it works – I either get nothing, or limited functionality. It seems so strange the B&O would build IR mapping into the Beolink Converter, but not allow for the full setup to work via only that one IR Eye?
I also tried to achieve the same with my Beolink Gateway – I thought I might be able to get a macro to trigger when Phono/N.Radio was selected as source that changed the source to A.Aux, but I couldn’t create that macro. For some reason, the Beolink Gateway does not allow source selection to be used as a macro trigger. Sources can be selected as the result of a macro, but they cannot be the trigger for one. I don’t know why – I could have sworn my old MasterLink Gateway did allow sources to be the trigger for a macro, but I could be misremembering it (I no longer have an ML Gateway so cannot check).
If anyone has an old ML Gateway, could you check for me to see if source selection such as Phono/N.Radio can be used to trigger a macro? If so, I’ll buy one from eBay and see if I can achieve it with that!
