2) The tv guide keeps crashing - do you know when the next software upgrade is planned?

I can only answer this one - but my local dealer claims that all these BV14 issues will be resolved in March in the next big software update.

It's ironic, as I enquired about moving up from my BV11-40 to a BV14-40, last October, and was advised to (temporarily) hold on this idea....until the sw issues were fixed. Since then the darned BV14-40 has had two price increases in the UK! Cheers B&O 👍🏼

Oh well - first time I've heard that.

Usually you - like with any 3rd party devices - you connect it to a HDMI port ;-)

I have a chromecast connected via USB and HDMI. the top connections panel on the 11-55 make it very easy to connect both. i haven't even tried the spotify app on the TV itself as the chromecast does a great job

Of course that is the way to do it.

However, you will have to activate the HDMI port used before playing back, because it is an external source.

This said - that is less annoying than seeing the Chromecast chrashing all the time on a BV14 :-(

So why not do the same on the BV14?

My dealer told me, that B&O will rollout a software update at the end of january, which will fix the major problems.

I had a brand new BV14 installed early November and it has been a nightmare. All sorts of issues from "no signal" whilst watching something on SKY, switching itself off during use, no control at all from remote for long periods etc etc.  Dealer eventually replaced with another brand new set after 4 weeks. It was better in some ways but problematic from the start, it could not find my BL 18's using WISA despite them being almost next to it!  Since them I've had various messages about power controller not working and YouTube has stopped working. The latest issue is it switching itself on during the night so when we wake up we have SKY without picture!

Iv'e owned several B&O Beovision products over the last 16 years and cannot recall having these kind of issues ever!

Im currently awaiting a reply from my store manager about imminent updates and its affect.  I'm about ready to send it back and buy something else!

anyone else out there with the same issues?

Same problems and more. You are not alone.🙂
