Unusually you have the 32 with HDMI and the 40 without, had it only been the other way around....

You have the Cinema output (Display 2) connect that to a HDMI converter and run a SCART cable.

FORMAT 0 will then switch between the two displays and you be able to distribute HD video...

Let me know if you get the general idea?

As far as I remember rhe 7-32 with the two HDMI -ins had a VGA-output for the second screen.

Correct me, if I am wrong!

You are properly absolutely right! So something as simple as this might actually do the trick, since HDCP is not an issue. What do you think?

VGA-DVI adaptor

I get your idea. I also have a vga to hdmi Converter lying around and a 10m hdmi cable. 

Can I then control the BV 7-32 via the Beo4 from the Livingroom? What is the scart for? Audio?

I have a few of them lying around from earlier on, I guess.

But it won’t help much - VG/DVI carries no sound.....and how about controlling 🤔

VGA is an analog signal - no way to connect to HDMI (which is digital.

Only way (and I would not recommend it) could be use the VGA to a scart converter (connected to one of the scart connections on the 32) and add a sound signal from one of the scart (out) connections on the 7-32.

I see no way to control that from afar.

How about getting a small BVB-HD tv box for the 7-40 instead?

I know, but the original poster mentioned Masterlink so the sound is there, getting it to play might be another matter. I have never had the privilege of meeting a Beovision 7-40 MkI, but I am guessing its possible.

Edit: I did not see your second reply...

Thanks for your Help :-)

I will try a bit with all the possibilities. But I think best is to buy a DVB Receiver for the livingroom. Masterlink is only for audio right?

I have a few of these lying around.
