BV 14-55

Ok I have it for a week now and here is some reflections.

* Android system crash every day

* My Pace 830 box does not work with PUC

* When I turn on the TV from stand-by and, lets say press ATV, all puc controlled devices goes on!! (Except Pace box)

* When the TV has been off for a couple of hours I need to enter the pincode.

* The sound of the Pace box is out of sync

* If you change settings it does not apply.

* Automatic room adaptation is bad, so I have set it off

etc etc........................

Many of this issue is known by B&O

All I can say is that I  never had so many problem with a new TV as this;-/

Is it Andriods faults??

 

That sounds quite shocking. Ok, early adopter problems. Still, just too many issues. It's not Android'd fault. B&O needs to be blamed for releasing the product in such a state.

I hope, the issues can be fixed soon so you can enjoy the new TV. I was satisfied with my BV11-55 only after two years, there were a couple of issues. B&O fixed one and implemented another one with their updates.

That's disappointing, Mr. Anderson. I hope the issues are resolved quickly.

I have discovered the same issue with that excact Pace Box.

However, i have found a (temporary) solution. It uses the same IR commands as a Samsung SMT-S5140, so try to download that PUC and try i out. Seems to work well :-)

(related to my BV14-40)

Indeed.. The Android part crashed regulary...  "service xyz stopped responding" and so on.

One evening turned off the TV because I had to put my daughter to bed and still do some work... some hours later.. turn on the tv and it's requesting pin code... Which I didn't have... Had to call my dealer the next day.

Takes at least 30sec to start up from standby! 

Haven't had any issues with the PUC (Appel TV rev 4 and Telenet decoder)

To figure out: how to make a list of DVB-Radio stations so that I can press "Radio" "1" in order to have the first radio station that I have put in the favorites list

Also need to figure out how to add Spotify to the devices list so that I can assign the BL8000s+BL11 as speakers without the speakers of the BV14

B&O still need to iron out a lot of bugs in this one!

Very very sad to ear all these issues for ordinary use.

BV11 was so good for that, BV14 shoud be at least the same.

I personaly dislike the Android stuff on the new tv but thought it would work well from scratch.
I was seriously considering a BV14-55. Maybe I should wait.

Depends how long you liked to wate.Thing is if/when they do add HDR everything will be 8k 🙁
