Dear Karsten,

Go to the service menu of the Beosystem 3 and try the various "Film Mode" options (On, Off, and Auto). Off should fix the problem.

By default , the 3:2 pulldown option  (which is Film Mode in B&O terminology)  is set to AUTO.

Regards,

Jean

Hi,

Is it only the BeoSystem 3 that has the "Film Mode" option? Or does the BeoVision 7 also have that option? And if so, what is it called? At least I cannot find this option in my BeoVision 7 in the service menu.

I have read a number of threads where the "Film Mode" is mentioned, including a thread suggesting to this to OFF if the picture is very dark. I have this problem. My picture is very dark when I watch  TV thorugh my STB. I have tried to adjust the "regular" color and brightness adjustments in the normal menu both with not much luck.

BR,
Lars.

The Beosystem 3 doesn't handle 24p... Maybe a new SW upgrade will solve that...

Regards

Before I updated my tosh I called the B&O Tech support in Munich, they told me that they don't see any problem with 24p.

However, I don't think that they ever have tested this....

@beolab, could you please share with me where you got your inforamtion?

thanks

Karsten 

According to B&o service Stockholm the 4.03 firmware update will include 24p support...

Regards

Quick update from B&O suport: Current version does not support 1080/24p, no idea if get fixed with a software update.

HDMI 1.3 is not needed for 24p, 1.3 adds an extended color mode and the new HD audio codecs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Definition_Multimedia_Interface#HDMI_1.3)

@kawo: Exactly, what occurs when you connect the HD-DVD player to the Beosystem 3? Is the picture displayed properly (at 60Hz).

Also, when you connect the HD-DVD player with the 24p setting to the projector, what is the refresh rate selected by the projector?

Regards,

Jean Vezina

@Jean - a 1080p/60Hz picture is displayed on my JVC HD 1 without any problem, but with judder. I forced to BS3 to use the 60Hz rate in the service menu, without I had problems to display a signal on the projector (Error "out of freuquency range").

Unfortunately the JVC only displays the exact refresh rate in the service mode (and I don't know how to access this). Also I have the Firmware 2.5 on the XE1 with the judder every 42 sec, which is fixed with 2.7 

Hope that helps!

Karsten
