HDR1 and DVD1 with BV6-26

3 replies

Hi!

It's been a long time since I was here, mainly because of a new job and a new apartment, which have taken quite a bit of my time.

Now, though, I'm ready to ask a serious B&O-related question. :)

I have a BV6-26 from 2005 with a DVD1 connected to it. (Some of you may recall my HTPC build, but unfortunately it broke down.)

Now I'm considering buying a HDR1 so I can record TV programs as well, since that's a feature that I'm currently lacking. I know that the DVD player is controlled from the Beo4 via the TV. Does the HDR1 work the same way? And can I connect both of them to the TV?

How do I go about this?

 

Thanks!

I used to have exactly this setup. I worked great. Offcourse with the HDR1 you cannot record digital TV so now on my new BV-8-40 I no longer use the HDR1.
