The original Beovision 1 (and Beocenter 1) were controlled by the Beo 1 remote. They then changed to Beo 4 later. The Beo 1 is a fabulous design but relied too much on the TV menu to work. If you aren't using the TV fully then the Beo 1 will probably do for you. They go for under £30 here in UK. 

technov1king, I just re-read your post, if you have the built in DVD, then yours will be a Beocenter 1, and the Beo 1 will control the DVD.

Well i cant seem to find that remote here in the Netherlands. And i think 30 pound is a rather step amount regarding most of these tvs are free to pick up. 

so, you can use the beovision without remote or no?

See here - he will post to NL: 

You cannot control it without a remote. I have looked at my Beocenter 1 and you can only open and close the DVD. That turns the TV on but no other control possible. There are 2 buttons,  one physical button for the DVD tray and 1 physical button for power on/off. But the TV should remain on (in Standby) not off.

I also have just tried a One For All UR-7120 (universal remote) and that can control the TV but not the DVD.

Edit - the Beovision 1 will be the same. No control without a remote.

Also, if you do decide to take the TV, ensure you get the pin number (if it is activated) otherwise you will not be able to use the TV at all.
