connection to beovision7

7 replies

Hello,

 I recently bought a bluray player and wish to connect it to my BEO vision 7 mk 3 TV. The bluray player , I believe needs a HDMI cable connected to it, but I need to know where to connect it to on the back of the TV. The reference booklet seems to indicate the DVI-I socket, is this the correct input for the HDMI cable? Or do I need an adaptor?

 

Cheers .

Paul.

You need an adapter - your dealer should be able to provide one. You will also need an audio cable.

if the dvd player has hdmi and ur tv a MK3 you can just connect it with HDMI?

Dear Peter i am getting different advice on this question one chap says the hdmi from the bluray will plug straight into my beovision mk3, not sure,went to commet this morning, they said the dv1-1 is an older version and i would need as you say an adapter. i find it hard to believe a new as in less than 6 mounth old tv does not have bluray capability.

Cheers for the info. Paul

sorry i shoudl have explained

if your TV is a MK3 it will have 4 hdmi sockets on so you can just plug your blueray player into one of those and set it on the connections menu, you dont need to use DVI if you use HDMI???

on the BV7 mark 3 the DVI is an output for projector and is DVI D which is not compatible with DVI-I or DVI-A

The DVI connection on a MK2 is an input.

 

 

sorry i must say my info is based purly on the 40 inch version
