Hi all.

I have a Beocentre 6-26 running software version 9.2

I have also just bought a Panasonic DMR-BWT700 Freeview HD pvr & Blueray player and can't get the DVI signal to show properly.

It works fine (although squashed) in 576p/480p but absolutely nothing when 720p selected. The volume does not even show (b&o volume, when adjusted on the Beo4). No b&o menu, nothing. Reslect 576p/480p and it all returns to normal.

I borrowed an LG freeview HD tuner from the store and that does exactly the same.

Any ideas?

Thanks very much

Are you sure your BC is HD Ready?

Does it have component connection?

Yes, All the BC 6 are HD ready - just the early BV6s that were not.

Yes, have component but not tried it (don't have a cable!) - the DVI input definitely works but just not at 720p. (If I select HDTV in the menu system of the BC6 I have the choice of either 'YPBPr', 'DVI' or 'No').

Thanks
