No sadly you can't.

(And I am just about to reply to your other thread/question!)

Some CD players were activated with one of the coloured buttons (yellow??)

The original BS 1 CD/Radio had up/down Ariel functionality with these buttons too FYI

Dont think it would work, because it has to open the magic doors first…

It is actually possible to transmit a 'Load' command via IR to different B&O systems, but I don't know if a normal B&O remote control is able to do it somehow. If one had the IR code and a device, that could transmit it, it should be possible, as I have a device, that I know is able to send out the 'Load' command.

I have several B&O music systems I've tried it out with. The doors of fx a Beocenter 2500 will open followed by the CD tray if I remember correctly, and it will also open the lid on a Beogram CD4500 and Beocord 4500, so it must be embedded in the software of most B&O systems; maybe for use in the burn-in process at the factory?

Hello Dennis,

could you describe the LOAD command format (in hex)?

Something like "00 01 xx" (like 00 01 83 is A.AUX)

Then I could check this out

Hi Gunther,

Great idea!

I would need to fire up my Lintronic box in order to convert the IR signal into hex, but unfortunately the device and the Lintronic box is packed away at the moment. I will try to dig them out and convert the signal at some point, but I have quite a busy schedule at the moment with school beginning again next week end a car that needs to be ready for MOT/HU.

An idea would be to point that remote at a B&O ML device that is connected to a BLGW and use the monitor feature of the BLGW to detect what command is being sent. I wonder if it might be one of the CONTROL commands -- for example. Then, the correct command could be sent from a B&O remote.

Another solution would be using a Global Cache IR emitter. You could capture the IR code and then use a macro with the BLGW to emit that code via the Global Cache emitter.

Apart from the technical challenge, am I the only one wondering about the practical use of such a function?
I mean, you will have to go to the player to load or change discs anyways, - or am I missing something?
