I have my ATV from composite to scart (decoder) on my 4-42. Works perfectly and also did make ATV learn a remote that was included in my Set Top box. Now it is hidden in the cabinet and controlled by Beo4!

Hi, The best way is to look for a cheap Gefen HDMI expander on ebay which you can connect to the DVI & control with 1 of the STB controllers connecting up to four HDMI sources.

I don't think a non-HDMI BV7 will control an HDMI expander.

It is a possible solution if you want to control it manually.  Though you'll also need something to switch the audio too.

Hi, If you have an up to date STB list in your TV & the latest software 30,03 then you can operate a HDMI expander!

I know because i have it, I dont know if you can be bothered with the hastle & expense wiht this option as B&O must update Chip & Flash software!

Hi Spiros,

  Maybe I am being a bit stupid 😳

  The only connection on ATV2 is a HDMI socket.

 

  Kind regards
