Great job on this!
BEOVISION ECLIPSE V2 Coming April 2020
Hi Christian.
I had the exact same problem when trying to integrate a C9 panel with the soundcenter... it turned out that the Ethernet cable connecting the panel to the sound-center, provided by B&O, was DEFECTIVE. I changed the cable and everything started working fine just like Spezialisten.
Does anyone know when the V2 65 inch is due out??
I was told January. I have a GX 65 and wondered if I could place it on an Eclipse v2 stand.

Hi flatwhite
Interesting. Spezializten also advised to do this, but with no succes.
Just to check with you what this could mean, when looking at the LG configuration menus for 'Connection Settings'.
Currently i see 'Wi-Fi Connection' stating 'Connected to the Internet' from the LG TV to my Wi-Fi. The status of the 'Wired Connection (Ethernet)' is 'Not Connected', even that the B&O provided cable for the Soundcenter connection is connected to the backside ethernet port of my LG panel and from there to the hidden connector at the top side of the Soundcenter. Should there eventually be a 'Connected to the Internet' for the wired connection to make the communication work between the Soundcenter and the LG TV?
Please find attached a configuration snapshot from my current LG connection status and could you compare these with your LG TV settings?
Thx for a timely reply :-)
Go to the B&O app with the LG remote and check if you can access the settings and change them.
There is also a video on Youtube explaining how to setup the Harmony once the B&O software has been installed. At some point, the TV and Sound Center have to be turned off and on to allow the two units to synchronize. Follow exactly the same steps.
Good luck,
Jean

Hi Jean
I checked if i can change any settings for the wired connection part with the LG remote. The only thing would be to deconnect the Soundcenter ethernet cable and connect a cable from my LAN to the LG ethernet port. Then the wired connection shows as active connection, but the B&O app states, that the soundcenter has been disconnected. So this is not the way to go.
Is the wired connection status 'Connected' when connected to the soundcenter or is 'No connection' as shown in my snapshot?
You mentioned a video for a first time setup of a Harmony. Is it this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4IX1atooyKQ ?
If not, could you give me a link to this video?

Yes, this is the right video. If you have followed these steps carefully, that should work if the sound center is indeed compatible.
I have a V1 Eclipse (with the normal C7 B&O screen) and the wired LAN connection menu item said also not connected but my TV obviously works properly. So, this is not the issue. Are the TV, MUSIC and List buttons on the Beoremote ahowing options? Are you also able to change options in the B&O app such as sound settings and sources ?
Good luck,
Jean

I am curious. Will the soundcentre v2 work with non-LG oled as well?

The LG has software built in to it (bios) and the B&O app which are both required to connect to the sound center or Stage. This is to allow control via the BeoRemote etc.
What is missing here is the possibility to control the sound center via an web/smartphone app like the Stage. The Soundcenter for both Harmony and Eclipse are very limited in the current B&O app. You need to have the WebOS App on the LG to control it. If this can be solved, I guess mo problem at all.
