Dear B&O fans,

Hopefully everyone is doing great in these difficult times.
Today I received the beautiful Beovision 7 type 9311 tv from my grandmother.  I would like to install a Chromecast by integrating a scart -> hdmi adapter.  Now the question is: will this function?

 Or are there other options for installing a Chromecast on this type of Beovision?  (It is not HDMI ready via DVI connection)

 I am also curious which settings I should use on the TV if possible

Looking forward to all the replies

 Sincerely,

 

 Julian Menger

I use Chromecast with a BV7 via DVI + analogue audio.

To get HD picture I bought a 10Eur HDMI audio extractor on eBay.

Chromecast > HDMI audio extractor > Analogue audio via AV4 + HDMI cable to DVI socket with DVI/HDMI adaptor.

I cannot recommend to use the HDMI to composite converters. Bad picture quality.....
