Ok thanks for letting us know the possible day(s)Could Struer, then let us know the possible month or maybe even year this long running farce will come to an end.For many I know this will be their last EVER B&O Tv.Wednesday or Thursday i think.......pretty sure it was Wednesday on reflection.....
Sounds like the Beovision is going out with a bang!
Hello. I bought an horizon 40 last november and i returned it to the shop after a week. I was very disappointed with it. Other than all strange things you mentioned, picture was awful most of the time. black turned often blue, it was impossible to tune the right tint with the suited control. i shown the thing to a quite skeptical seller and he had to admit there were problems to solve. a firmware update issued the day after i brought home the naughty girl, didn't solve anything. while tweaking with controls i accidentally entered the service mode where among other settings there was one named ambilight. i am sorry but i don t want to pay for a nice cabinet and electronic designed and made by chinese manufacturers. the fact a beo television was not arbouring a genuinely made beo chassis upset me now like it did in the good old days of crt based televisions when there were few beovisions having modified chassis made by philips or thomson. after that i bought a beautiful beovision 11 and i am very satisfied. i only hope beo will continue to sell this model for a long long time
A few weeks ago our Horizon was switched for a brand new one. I must say that this one is much more stable than the previous one. The bass management bug appears every now and then but not as frequently as on the old Horizon. Connection problems with the remote are gone. Even the panel seems to give a better picture (is this just a thought - placebo - or did B&O also tweak hardware on the more recent Horizons)?
The software still has some bugs and glitches on our new Horizon (but much less and there have not been crashes recently, so there certainly must have been issues in the previous Horizon).
The picture (and processing of the picture) has improved a lot with the week 10 update. This was also noticable on the old Horizon. However, some side-effects are still there and also on our new Horizon (for instance the Beovision still has troubles with camera sweeps, but the side effects are less than in the previous software version). There are cheaper brands that do not have these side effects, so I hope that this issue will be solved with this weeks update.
I also experience some problems with the picture quality on my Horizon 48. People in motion sometimes have like a blur around their heads. Not sure if this is your experience also but never seen it on my V1 and had this problem years ago with my Philips HD ready panel. The hardware on the Horizon might be from Philips/TPVision, hope that B&O is able to finetune the picture quality!Regarding other problems, software still too buggy, sometimes the TV reboots itself for no reason and I find the tv to respond too slow, especially direct after booting up. The update of this week should bring NL ability / Multiroom. Now I cannot connect the tv to my other NL products and not able to use the BL's on the tv with my Moment.

Hello
no post since five days .. the new firmware isn't here...bang olufsen have problems with it ? ( tp vision ) or they are too busy with tv oled with lg ?
for us who have bought or will want to buy horizon , NG avant or beo14 it is a bad news and a brake to choose B&O ...
has your dealer requested the update for you?
i didn't realise before, but that is what they need to do for you, so you will then have the update pushed to your TV....
