Hi:

 

I just want to be able to power it on and off really.

 

Thanks

anyone?

Hi there. I think it's not possible with Beo4 unless you use the Linktronic device which of course will ive you more features!

Graham, If you are a really good shot, you could try throwing your Beo4 at the on/off switch.
Attatch it to a long elastic if you want to repeat the operation.

Not 100% sure that would work either. As the wireless xBox 360 controllers work by Bluetooth, not Infra Red.

Aren't the XBOX 360's turned on/off wirelessly anyway using the 'X' button on the controllers?

If so, what would a Beo 4 gain you, may I ask?

Nothing to do with these game machines my  self!!!! Probably my son in the next 5-10 years 😁

I didn't know that - I was given my 360 with no manual but I don't know how that would work - do you just hold the X down for a while?

 

There is def an infa-red bulb on the front of the machine though.

What is a lintronic device - I only know of a light control system called a lintronic. Sorry if these are very basic questions.

They do make a light control system, but also do an IR converter. This allows you to control non B&O devices with a B&O remote. Search the forums as there should be quite a few posts about it.
