Beosystem 3 upgrade turned out to be a bit of a downgrade..

24 replies

Thanks for your help BeoMegaMan.  Unfortunately, changing framelock from 'nearest line' to 'double buffer' doesn't make a difference. Quite frustrating as the BS3 is not the cheapest system.

@tired: have you been more successful?

Nope. I've given up. B&O "officials" don't have a clue. Apple don't have a clue (however, it works on 100% of all other TVs I've tried on so far so I doubt it's Apple). Store is clueless. Service technician is clueless..

As my footer sais.. Pretty tired of my corrupt $100.000+++ setup.. :(

The fact that B&O makes the most beautiful equipment is kind of undermined when they can't get it to work.. Sigh...

Hi tIRED.

As I am reading you are running on a BS3. Have you updated to the newest software?

The problem causing this is indeed an HDCP problem. Input system, BS3 and Output system all have to support HDCP.

This is still not solved (although B&O are working on it, according to my service guy).

I was upgraded to 10.03 (as stated) and even though there is a few versions newer than that available today the issue is still unresoved as far as software goes. They claim the issue is known now and that it will be fixed in a future release..

I'm currently watching my movies through another AppleTV on another TV-set (Beovision 7-40, MK2, which have no problem, of this kind..)

Thanks for taking an interrest though!
