About to buy a beovision 10-40 but before I do, does anyone know if the tuner in the 10 is compatable with Freeview HD, have seen something about an update on the B&O website but not sure if that will make it compatable with the UK HD Freeview?

Yes it is - all new BV10s are now able to receive Freeview HD.
My B&O Icons:
Hi, my BV10 was new in Dec last year, will it be capable or will I - can I get it upgraded to receinve Freeview HD? Where on the B&O site is the info or link ? TKS
OK, I've found it now, just need to stand on my head to find out where to insert my USB stick Ooo errr Missus ;-)
On the underside of my BV10 that is...
Are you sure? The Spec lists DVB-T, and Freeview HD is DVB-T2. It's not backwards compatible.
No I'm not sure, but I did not start the thread and thus the title of t, just added my question to it. I'm aware from my dealer that there was a problem with the DVB HD receiver in BV10 because the regulator changed the system for UK HD at the last minuted and thus B&O were "caught out..." I was told there may be an update released idc so was just guessing that this was it. I was just assuming therefore that the problem was just a UK issue? Is there a wider EU issue? I will simply ask my dealer to sort it out, TV is only 6 monts old so still under warrantee. I'll let them take all thre risks in updating it.
You can blame the wonderful BBC for a lot of the problems with HD tv , particularly fressat HD. They changed the transponder to DVBS2 from DVBS without actually informing anyone last week.
Typical.
