One problem I've find with the generic Samsung blu-ray template on the Beo5 (for use with the B&O PUC; not the direct IR control from the Beo5 to the Samsung BD) is that the green and red buttons do not respond on the first page on the Beo5 menu. Rather, you have to go to the second page of the Beo5 menu to get the green and red buttons to respond. This SHOULD be correctable via editing of the Beo5 programming but I haven't fiigured it out.

There have actually been four versions of the Samsung Generic PUC file (G-BDPXXX) created by B&O on the following dates:-

• 15th August 2008
• 15th December 2009
• 20th April 2010
• 10th May 2010  -- Current Version 2,10a

I don't know when you had your PUC updated, but if it was not in the last year, then you may have an earlier version

Keith,

The PUC is about 2 years old. However, this would seem to be a problem with the template on the Beo5 configuration program, of which I used the latest version. There is no logical reason why the hard buttons should not respond on the first page but do when moving to the second page of the Samsung blu-ray screen on the Beo5. I don't have this problem when using the Beo4.

Dear Keith.

Thank you so much. I will try this out as soon as possible.

I fully understand your comment, however, remember that the Configuration Tool is intended for Dealers who also get updates for their Service Tool. These updates are released in sync with each other. In other words, when a change is made to a PUC file which also requires a change to the associated XML file used by the Configuration table, then there is no problem. However, if these are not in sync, you may well have a problem.

When some members have received a copy of the B&O Configuration Tool it includes the PUC associated XML files at that time. Dealers will receive regular updates from B&O directly loaded into the Tool automatically when they open teh Tool, whereas everyone else will not.

I can tell you that almost all the PUC associated XML files for Samsung DVD related products were last updated by B&O on 2nd August 2011

Thanks, Keith.

I'm finding that I'm having the same problem using the color hard buttons on the Beo5 with other templates as well. For example, my cable box does not respond to the color buttons unless I move to the second screen (moving right or left off of the main screen) on the Beo5. The color buttons work from my Beo4 without any problem. Any suggestions?

Hi Keith.

I finally received my Beo5, and I cant wait to try out your Samsung template.

But I have a question. Since my Samsung blu-ray player also works as my TV receiver, is it then possible to have the tv channel logos on the samsung page on the Beo5?

All the best

Hi Keith.

I just downloaded your samsung xml to the Beo5.

If i press any button in the Samsung BLU-RAY Generic menu on the Beo5, the Beo5 starts to hang, and i have to press the physical "off" button to stop the hang.

Do you have any ideas of whats going on?

It certainly is possible and desirable..

That sounds like you have an old version of firmware in your Beo5. What version of Configuration Tool are you using ?

I'm using the CT 4.11. I dont know about the firmware in the Beo5. How do i update it? The remote works fine with the BeoVision-8 though.
