With great thanks to my friendly B&O Guru I now have working Car 2 disc!

For those of you who have the same issue here is what you do:

How to update the Blu-ray player software 
You can update the software in the Blu-ray player in two ways:


1. Use a CD R/RW (The software is available from BeoWise – Software & Tools – Service Tool – Service Tool MK II). 
2. Download the software via Ethernet. Ethernet update is the easiest. 




1. CD update 

a. Burn the software on a disc using a standard burning program, for example the program available in Windows. 
b. The TV must be in standby, and there must be no disc in the loader. 
c. Press DVD to activate the Blu-ray player. Wait until the loader slides out. Place the CD in the loader and start playback. 
d. The player will now validate the software; this is informed on the screen. After validation, open the loader and remove the CD. 
e. Press GREEN on Beo5 to save the software. If you use a Beo4, press GREEN twice. 
f. The software is now saved and the screen will briefly be black until the player starts up again. 



2. Ethernet update 

a. Before you switch on the TV, insert an Ethernet cable into socket on the TV. 
b. The TV must be in standby, and there must be no disc in the loader. 
c. Press DVD, wait until NO DISC is displayed on the screen and make that sure the loader is closed. 
d. Press DVD setup on your Beo5 to enter the Set Up menu. If you use a Beo4, press YELLOW and 8 at the same time. 
e. Select ADVANCED and press GO. 
f. Select SOFTWARE UPDATE. The Blu-ray player now automatically searches for new software, and the new software will be displayed on the screen. 
g. Press GREEN on Beo5 to start the software update. If you use a Beo4, press GREEN twice. 


Follow the instructions displayed on the screen.
 

Happy Days 🙂
