Thanks again Razlaw, it sounds as though i have the same sort of set up as you, with Lab 9's, BV 7-40 in the main room and with BL4000's in the link room. I'll grab another cable and have a play!

I couldn't find any reference to Apple on the PUC list so it looks like i need to get the guys in to do a software update

cheers

The Apple TV has a learning function for the remote. It is also possible to assign some other device in the PUC menu and then have the Apple TV learn those commands. I did that before we had the PUC updated and it worked fine.

Hi guys - sorry to drag this up again but i'm having real problems trying to get my link room to work.

Apple tv is connected to BV7 via HDMI lead to HDMI port D and Av3 and assigned to VMEM on remote Everything works ok soundwise and album covers etc displayed.

I've tried connecting a cable with red and white plugs to the apple tv audio sockets and to the middle 2 plugs in the AV3 section in the back of the tv, then going to the link room and pressing AV>VMEM on the remote but no sound coming out.

Is it possible to have the HDMI cable and the other cable plugged in at the same time? Am i plugging into the wrong sockets on the back of the t.v?

Any advice would be appreciated as i think the missus might have a sense of humour failure if i spend any more time tinkering!😮

The SCART has a Sound out and a Sound in... have you connected to the right to the right connector.

Sometimes Cinch to SCART adapters have a IN/OUT switch, have you tried both.

Can you check with another device that sound comes out of the Red/White connectors of the Apple TV?

thanks phil - let me have a go. The scart i'll connect to is the AV3 scart?

i assume i don't have to change any of the settings on the tv i.e AV3, VMEM, set to HDMI on the screen etc

cheers

Ours is set up exactly as you describe and works fine using the Beo 4 just as you describe. As we are in the USA we do not have scart so I don't know how that would affect it.

Could it have something to do with the BV7 settings?

Ours are as follows:  Auto Selection Yes  HDMI D  Sound Input HDMI  YPbPi NO  AV3-AV3 No, although I have no idea what the last setting means or does.

By middle two plugs, do you mean the middle of the bottom row and the middle of the second row?

Hi Razlaw - in the back of the BV7 it looks like there are 4 sockets above the scart lead connection in the ''AV3'' section. Looking at the panel that comes off the back of the tv, they are labelled Y,Pb,Pr,SPDIF and PUC. I put the 2 plugs in the Pb and Pr sockets.

I really appreciate the time you are taking to help me

many thanks

I think those are the wrong sockets. I believe those are for video in connection with the Y socket. Our BV7 has Video in, Y, Pb, Pr. L In, R In, PUC and SPDIF.  I have the cables connected to L In and R In. Does your BV7 not have those as it has Scart instead?  I wonder if maybe there would be an adapter you could get to connect to the ends of the two cables and then plug them into the SPDIF or into the SCART?
