Limitations of the TV then, that is unfortunate I’m sorry to hear that

And of course many people have few issues with BT headphones, but many people and many models do.

My only point about volume was to illustrate an example of the issues one can face. The low power of the BV14 with a pair of headphones just served to illustrate how easily a simple thing can be undermined

But of course if they give you a transmitter, then you may have some joy

Indeed, very much my point

Throw any non simplistic scenario at BT, and it all goes wrong

I tried a B&O pair with a BV14, and like others who did similarly, the lack of volume/ power made them useless. It was astonishing.

@Sandyb @Fisde

I use my B&O BT ANCs paired with the Apple TV.

I know that doesn’t solve the sports issue.

So just a thought for other material.

Hmm, that’s not a bad idea!

I’ll have to check though, if the PQ of the Viaplay stream is satisfying for me to watch. I’m very happy with the PQ from my satelite signal from Viasat.

But thanks for the heads up, it could be a solution. Not that it makes B&O look any better, it’s still a dumb ass problem, they’ve created...

I wonder why?

I can pair AKG's bluetooth headphones and even a rather cheap pair of Procaster headphones to my LG 7-series OLED without any issues.

Eclipse has the same TV part. How is it possible that in the B&O LG/SoundCenter combo bluetooth headphones do not work?

😮

Hey Fidse

I'll write following in Danish about your headphone problem.....

Hej Fidse

Jeg har selv et par BeoPlay H8 som jeg ønskede at bruge trådløst fra min PC. Kontaktede B&o support og de anbefalede Creative BT-W2 Transceiver / USB stik, som man sætter i et ledigt stik. Det fungerer stadig perfekt, dog lover B&o ikke at den fungerer med alle apparater. Prisen på den er ca. 40 euro, så det er en beskeden investering.

Her er et link til Creative, så kan du læse lidt :

Da dit Eclipse tv har flere usb tilsutninger fylder det jo ikke nær så meget som de andre forslag der har været i forummet. God fornøjelse   :o)

Not exactly an answer, but from looking at how one does this with a standard LG tv, the bluetooth is part of the "audio output" of the TV (you go into the "audio output" settings, etc.).  In the case of the Eclipse, all of the audio output is handled by B&O.  Apparently B&O didn't think this was important (or there's a technical reason why BT wouldn't work with the sound center).

Probably the same reason the WiFi is rubbish on the Eclipse. Some quite serious misgivings here by B&O. Not to mention the curtains being missing. When switching off it looks and feels like it has just crashed out very abruptly!

 

 

No doubt, a product of the modular approach taken to the Eclipse.

But in the end, shows that it was put together rather quickly - and the missing Bluetooth is surely an oversight?

Because how difficult can it be to put in a BT transmitter to the sound centre.

But given how rubbish the BT was in the BV14, maybe a good thing they left it out!

I spoke to my dealer today. He is contacting his installer who owns an Eclipse himself, if anyone got an answer, it’s got to be him. I’ll post the answer here when i get it. I’m not very optimistic though my dealer was certain it could be done.
