As we've heard several times on this forum - NO

An external Blueray-Player by B&O would be very nice.

But more urgent is an optional internal harddisk for all B&O TV models!!

Regards

What would that product look like? -Like an awful DVD1 or DVD2? Hideous, compared to BC2.

If it would look something like BC2 and incorporate BD, DVD, HDD, Radio, CD it would cost too much. Perhaps close to 2X the price of BC2? Or even more?

Just bought my first Mac. A MacBook pro 17'' as a Christmas gift for my wife. Just love it and must get more Macs. Hm, reminds me of another virus. 🤔

Is it possible to use a Mac Mini as DVD and HD recorder?

If this is possible and it upgrades with Bluray and it can be remote controlled then I will get a BV7 without internal Bluray.

An upgraded BC2 would just be wonderful - or even better a BS5/BM5 Combination that can do video streaming/recording as well.

For the time being I am happy with my HD Sat receiver (Technisat) with PVR harddisk and  Pioneer BluRay all controled via PUC and hidden in the cabinet.

It is possible to use a Mac Mini as a mediacenter/DVD player/ HD recorder, but you will never get it to play Blu-rays. You can fit a Blu-Ray drive to it, but it will only be possible to use it for data and not to play bought Blu-Ray movies.

I dont think we´ll se an external BR-player from B&O nor think I we´ll se them incorporated in Apples products. Blu-Ray just is not the way for the future, Digital distribution are. I think Blu-ray is somewhere in the middle of it´s lifecircuit and it just doesn´t make sense to to spend money on developing new products for a company like B&O.

If there was a easy/cheap way to "modify" the BC2 that would be great, but I guess it isn´t that easy.

OK, thanks.

Would be perfect if it had Bluray as well.

I will go for an internal Bluray in BV7 (even if it would be cheaper with a PS3) and a Mac Mini.

Everybody says the Bluray discs are not the future. They may be right, but how long shall we wait for 1080p broadcasts? I still haven´t seen a single channel transmitted in full HD. In fact most are still SD. There is a major difference in picture quality between HD ready and Full HD. 

I believe that Bluray will live far more than five years. I still want a BC2 with Bluray.
