I know. At this moment the stability is my main concern. It is really that bad....

Here is the latest from my B&O team. 

 

Location: Wiltshire

Finally the tv was software updated yesterday! :)

Experiences so far:

No crashing of the android menu / tv guide

More smooth load of menues

 

Have you guys found anything new and exciting in the update? 

Installed it yesterday evening. Update went smoothly; remote was also updated. 

First impression

The Good

Picture looks smoother/sharper.

TV does not start-up anymore with the latest watched device; but starts up with the correct device selected from the remote

The Bad.

Bass-management bug is back (was resolved in interim update of november).

 

Will do a deepdive this weekend... #fingerscrossed

Thanks for your update. Similar impressions on my side. Only the bass management bug has never been gone in my case (but I own the Horizon, so maybe that is the reason).

Update went smoothly on my 14. Picture seems sharper. 

Not aware of any bass issues with the TV speakers. 

What are the symptoms? 

Location: Wiltshire

BL8000 & BL11 connected to the TV.

Have 2 speaker groups. Start-up and Audio.

Start-up: "surround", all speakers configured

Audio: "stereo" only BL8000 and BL11; internal speakers disabled; used for radio, BeoGram and Apple TV music streaming.

When switching to Audio through the remote the music sound flat; lack of bass; only when selecting the Audio speaker group a second time the bass kicks in.

Will need to do testing for the Start-up group this weekend.

Combination BL 8000 & Beolab 11. The bass management settings in the speaker menu are switched off every time the BV is switched on. The Beovision does not remember its settings. You have to dig deep into the speaker menu and activate the bass management settings again and again.

I can also subscribe the remark by Kuyttendaele about having to press a speaker setting on the remote twice to add bass to the sound. 

One thing I still missing is this:

1) after I added a HDD, then its not possible to get an alert when a specific tv-show is on - this due to that the new "record" option replaced to old "plan" option - can I get i back somehow?

Can you guys help me with a trick or?

tentative thumbs up so far....managed to connect matrix properly now, and control all sources...hooray!

seem to be able to add apps (BBC iPlayer) to one of the my buttons...which i think is new......

i'll postpone judgement re stability for another week or so.......but so far, ok....
