Beo5 with Playstation 3?

23 replies

Hi,

I am just joining the B&O family, and would appreciate some help re: controlling the PS3

My setup consists among others of a BV7-40 and a Playstation 3. The PS3 is hidden in a cupboard (no direct IR line).

I have both Beo4 and Beo5, but Beo5 will not be of used due to the lack of direct IR line to the PS3, I understand all commands need to go through BV7 (which is updated and recognises Playstation3 as set-top box)

Has anyone tried the Nyko remote solution using Beo4 and BV7? Does it fully work (other than on/off, i.e. navigating through XMB)?

Has anyone tried the Schmarz remote solution using Beo4 and BV7? Does it fully work (other than on/off, i.e. navigating through XMB)?

Thanks! 

 

 

Did it work with the schmartz ir upgrade?
