Hello,

I am trying to connect a BV7-40 mk2 to a BS Overture without a Masterlink (ML) cable as I cannot get any cable solution done in a neat way. Is it possible to get CD, A.AUX and Radio functionality from the BS Overture to the TV by connecting a BeoLink Wireless 1 transmitter to Overture and a receiver to the TV? I understand that, if this is possible, the TV sound will work on the Overture as the transmitters only work in one direction. Also, do I need a separate IR receiver on the Wireless 1 (set as a receiver) next to the TV? If this setup is possible, what option settings should the TV be set as and how do I operate the CD and Radio functions on the Beo4/do I need any link settings when using Beo4?

any thoughts are highly appreciated!

Hello

First of the Wireless 1 has known to be unstable, probably because of inteference from other electronics that use the same frequency 2,4ghz (wifi, Bluetooth, baby monitors, wireless doorbells, microwave ovens etc.) so your milage may vary.

Masterlink to masterlink was not possible in the forst software revision. There is no way to check for the current software version unless you can get a dealer to check it with a servicetool. But units from serial number 19956171 should have SW 2.1 that support masterlink to masterlink. Also be sure to buy a pair that is known to work as different software revisions might not work togheter.

In order for this setup to work you will have to setup the TV as a link room TV that accept audio commands. That will be V.opt 6. You will not need a separate IR receiver.

Hope this is helpfull even though it might not be a optimal solution
