IR eye and NL/ML converter

thanks, this is great. I almost got it now.

so, you can still play from BS4 to the ml/nl attached speakers? in this case, the music is a NL signal that can be joined by the V1 or any other NL player (A9, BS1, etc)?

Yes, the BS4 outputs sound to the speakers attached to the BLC ML/NL and it is possible to join what is played by the BS4 by any NL capable device.

 

thanks, that's great. do you happen to know whether I could connect a non-b&o TV to the line-in of the ml/nl and have it play to BLs attached to the ml/nl? I'd assume it should work, but don't know whether video and audio will be in sync?

I do not know if there is a delay on the line. This might be the case in order to provide buffering when line in is distributed over NL. 

Thanks! Anyone else has an idea whether I can use the ML/NL to connect a non-B&O television to Beolabs? Question is whether the audio stays in sync with the video?

Any thoughts whether this may work and will be in-sync?

Sorry for pushing up this thread again, but I am really curious whether this will work. As recap, I would like to connect a non-B&O television to a ML/NL and play to BLs connected to it via PL. It should work, but the question is whether the video (on the television) and the audio (on the BLs via PL) will be in-sync. Thanks in advance for any thoughts you may have. Thanks!

Hello,

I have an NL/ML Converter which I will soon try to use as an "BeoLink Active" i.e. connect speakers to it and use these in a seperate room.

Question:

I will need an infrared eye which looks almost identical to the old ML eyes used with BeoLink Passive and BeoLink Active (ML products). Can I use such an IR eye or will I need to buy a new eye for the NL/ML Converter or will it not work? Obviously the connection will need to be done with RJ45 but shoudl be fairly easy to crimp on a suitable cable.? (I see a physical difference, the eye for the NL/ML Converter has the text "join" on the button where the previosu eyes has "play"written btu that difference wouldn't bother me.)

Many thanks, BeoMedia
