I thought you had photoshopped it red !No idea but maybe it is a clue ?When mine was installed I had B&O technicians do it ... and I am sure they did a firmware upgrade. Are you near a B&O shop with service people ?Thank you for the picture. Good to see. Do you know what Build level mean? Why is it with red by mine?
Beovision 8-40 Masterlink module?
"Build" is a reference to what firmware version is installed.
I recall that red color is an indication that an upgrade have failed of some reason.
When a technician tried to upgrade a BV10 I had a number of years ago, the build number went red after he tried to upgrade with the servicetool. After another try the upgrade was okay.

I must do it by myself. It is to expensive to let technicans do it. I have payed 100 euro for the bv 8-40. 🙂
Nothing you can (easily) do yourself (unless you have access to the B&O service tool....and know what to do!)
However, if you only paid 100 € for the tv, it should be worth it to let a B&O technician finish the job.
If you want, he could also load the PUC codes for external devices of your choice.
And the DVB-tuner needs an update, too.

well, 200 euro for a technican is to expensive. Maybe a factory reset can do it? How do I do a factory reset?
and also, I can turn out all devices with the masterlink and also I gives power to my masterlink system (as an audio master). Something works!!

As far as I remember:
Press Menu
Highlight Options/Settings
Press Menu 0 0 GO
This should bring you into the service menus.
Look around there - but don't change any numbers.
For me 200 Euro would be too much to spend on a TV that is worth a lot less, too.

"Reset all features" - is that factory reset? and can I just push that without any "danger"?
Your problem is, that the System Module SW doesn’t match the rest of the TVs SW versions. That is also why the Build number is red - there is a mismatch.
When the rest of the SW is from Build 166d the System Module SW have to be version 20.06o to match it.
That being said, it wouldn’t hurt to get the whole TV updated to a later build.
I do doubt that a local store would charge you 200 euro for an update. Especially if you can bring the TV to the store.
Very interesting. Thank you - for the better understanding. So if the versions where right, it would be better. Maybe it is earsier for me to buy another bv 8-40 where the masterlink module allready are build in.
I have to talk with a B&o store about my BS essense, maybe I can ask them there. You think it would be ever more expensive?
