Why's it a bit strange? The BV14 is a completely different platform.
Normally when you develop something new it would be better. Not the opposite.
Hi Beowuulf,
I agree. BV14 is a disappointing product. But after half a year of struggle (many Software-Updates and a new mainboard) things became much better now. First of all design, picture and sound quality are awesome compared to my old beloved BV9. Even SD-sources are displayed in almost HD-Quality. On the other side the software-quality and stability are terrible. Many problems are solved during the last software updates. Unfortunately some new problems occured. I'm looking forward for the next updates ðŸ˜
Usability is still an other issue. As you mentioned above the text on the guide and program-info is so faint and small. I told it to the customer support. But they don't care about it. Also the switching between BV14 and IR-based products on the Beoremote is too complicated. Why it is not possible to easily customize the Beoremote buttons such as "TV <-> Blutooth", "Music <-> IR"?

No necsessarily. Only in the eyes of a consumer. Tech is littered with problem releases, following a previously successful product, from many manufacturers.
Just because something looks similar and is released later, doesn't necessarily mean it has to be 'better'. Consumers just assume this - which is why people fall for upgrading their phones each year etc etc.
Well put Sir.No necsessarily. Only in the eyes of a consumer. Tech is littered with problem releases, following a previously successful product, from many manufacturers. Just because something looks similar and is released later, doesn't necessarily mean it has to be 'better'.

I will never buy a brand new bang olufsen tv again ,i still have two but my next purchase will be LG oled what a stunning picture!!
Won't the new B&O TVs have LG OLED screens?
When you want to change and view the picture settings, select the specific setting in the menu and then press the menu button on the remote again. You will stay in the setting option and see the broadcast you are viewing. Now you can see the impact of the changed setting. use the arrow keys to turn back to other settings in the menu. You still can see the 2/3 picture of your broadcast and switch to other options until you feel the image is good for your needs. Hope this helps you
I believe so ,it will be interesting to see the price list 🙂if B&O uses the latest" wall paper panel" !!,.Let us hope they make a good job software wise to integrate with their other products!.
