hi I've just got my beosound 1 out of storage and set it back up but since I last used it I've upgraded my beloved Avants to BV7s ( very disappointed that they are HD ready and yet you can't connect them to a HD DVi source) anyhow I've forgotten how to programme the remotes so they know there's more than one B&O in the room.... Can anyone help?
Thank you to our Sponsors

Probably best to go to B&O site and under Support select Guides and download a Beo4 PDFYou want to be setting A.OPT and V.OPT
There use to be a time when a helpful tech guy would give great advice and help, this site has lost its purpose!
First of all for clarification:Do you have more than one BV7? If so, are they located in different rooms?Did you connect other devices to BV7 via Masterlink?Is your problem to remote Beosound 1 with Beo4 in a room together with BV7?
The beosound one should be in audio option 2 I think and the TV in video option 1 I think. I've gotten away from ML so I don't really remember the option programming too much any more. The BS1 complicates it a little since it's not master linked in.
Your post appeared at 5am my time, I answered at 6:30 from my bed using my phone.I did not have time nor opportunity to dig out the manual myself.Knowing that your post would sit unanswered for up to 12 hours given that the EU and NA were in or preparing to be in their beds I gave you a reply that I thought would eliminate any delaying by helping you to help yourself. It used to be that B&O did not have lots of manuals on their website - now they do. Downloading the manual and keeping as a PDF or printing it out will serve you well in the future.There use to be a time when a helpful tech guy would give great advice and help, this site has lost its purpose!

Pray tell, what do you think the 'purpose' of this site is?
It is a 'Forum' for like minded B&O fans and collectors to discuss all things B&O, and for those who are generous enough to contribute financially via the Silver or Gold membership levels to have access to a wealth of user and service manuals (including BV7, BEO4 and BS1) - some, possibly not available anywhere else. Members make a choice as to whether to reply to posts, or help fellow members who have problems or issues with their B&O equipment.
The first reply you received was actually helpful and steered you in the direction you needed to look at. The Option settings for Audio and Video are readily available either from the user manuals for the products you have, via the B&O customer support pages or simply searching yourself online.
You appear to be berating fellow members or this Forum in general for not doing what you can easily do yourself and seem to expect others to invest time and effort in sorting this out for you without you having to put any effort in yourself.
I enjoy tring to help others in difficulty where I can, even though on many occassions replies go unanswered or without thanks or feedback. I suggest that if you really would like some help, please don't insult the site or its members.
There are still many helpful te"ch and non-tech guys giving great advice on this forum - which is exactly one of the purposes of this forum.
I hope you get your BS1 and BV7 working as you want. They are both great pieces.
Dave.
