DVI port on Beovision 7-32 Mark 3

20 replies

Hello people,

I am trying very frustratingly to connect a HD source to the DVI port of my BV7 (I have a HDMI to DVI cable). Try as I might with all of the options (setting all connections to NONE bar AV1 which is set to 'PC', DVI-D etc.), I cannot produce anything more than a grey screen with either a PS3 or a Humax FoxSat HDR.

Could somebody please enlighten me?

Thanks!

Jonathan

Hi Fellas,

   In connections set; AV1  STB(DTV)

                                AS   NONE

                                IR     ? depends if you are using one?

                                HDTV    DVI-I

  Then it will take you to the STB list, choose your box and that should be it. Of course you will need scart to AV1 for sound.

Hi, the other thing to check is what resolution your attached device is pushing out... anything higher than 720 and it's unlikely to be supported.

Hi Jonnie,

Why do I have to tell it what STB to use? I basically just want to enable the HDMI -> DVI cable I've got plugged in so I can connect my PS3 or FreeSat box.

Both of these boxes are currently pushing out 1080p, I thought the BV7 would just downscale these to 720p.

Hi Jonathan, I'm not sure of the Beovision 7's ability to downscale, perhaps try setting the STB's to 720 to see if any picture is given at all.

I believe the HDMI source recogniser can be switched on/off in the service menu, unusual for this to be done but maybe worth checking. it is in the adjustment section.

Interesting... will check it out.

There is far too much faffing about required and too many antiquated connectivity options on this TV. Who wants to swap it for their new BV10-46?

Interesting offer 👍👍

I am also interested in a swap of my BV7-32 MKII with a BV7-55. No extra charges hidden by me. And of course the shipping costs will be yours. 😂
