Hi 

I think it would be great with one post where we can share our "BeoHacks"...

 

- Upgrading panels in old Beovision TV's 

 

I would love to see all your creative solutions...

 

I will be trying Ravsted's solution of upgrading the screen on a Beovision 5.  I have a break in October so will be doing it then. I will report back with photos. We have bought a 43 inch TV as it is almost impossible to find 42 inch as he used.

Hi everybody,

 

as I have problems with hard wiring every device I have to make some devices wireless. 

Today I started to make my BeoLink NL/ML Converter wireless. I can wire all ML devices together in one place (behind my Beovision 7) and the rest is now completely wireless.

Adding wireless NL to the Blink Converter is pretty easy as I used a module from Vonets.

The module is completely wired internally to the BeoLink Converter and there is nothing visible from the outside. It looks like the Converter was planed to be used like that.

Next Up is my Masterlink Gateway and the Beovision 7 with wireless network for blu-ray.

Hi Tim84,

Thanks for sharing that - good to know! I see that the Vonets VM300-L is 2.4 GHz only (like the Playmaker, Beolit 12, etc). This would be great if you have a 5GHz device only (like Beosound 5 Encore) and you want to avoid interfering with your WISA network. By any chance did you evaluate the Vonets VM5G which appears to be the same, but also works on the 5GHz band?

Here is a proposed Beosound  Century mod that I would like to do, created on an art software app. I integrated a touchscreen Samsung mobile phone into the design...

Below is a modification that I did to a Beosound 3000 and stand. With Bluetooth receiver permanently attached onto the back of the unit. Also attached a floating Samsung tablet to the front of the simulated wood effect stand...
