Mac mini to BV5

14 replies

A kind of solving the problem is to order a (panasonic) DVI module.

Order the DVI extension cable and plate, so you'll have a digital (video) input.

But if you re having an early (mk1)  BV5, then the BV5 software probably doesn't support choosing the DVI module.

Check you're software version if you're having doubts about which mk you have.  It has to upgraded to 16.2

If the software can't be upgraded, the you can solve that by ordering an original panasonic remote for screen to select the DVI input of the screen.

Sometimes modules can be found on ebay.

You don't need a B&O DVI module, a panasonic version will do the job.

Audio can be attached to the Camcorder input on the left side.

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

Hi Andreas,

I'm selling my 2.0GHz Core 2 Duo Mac Mini (bought spring 2008) currently connected to the BS3. To my understanding it supports analog video. Contact me if you're interested, otherwise I will initiate selling process in other forums.
