Problem with Beovision 7 mk 3 and Sky HD and link TV's

8 replies
Would be very appreciated if anyone knows where im going wrong the problem i have is my beovision 7 is connected by hdmi to the sky hd box  and this tv works fine. But when this t.v. is off and i turn on any linked tv ie beovision 8 upstairs after shortwhile a sky message appears on screen saying This display dose not support HDCP please disconnect your hdmi cable. if you press backup or exit the message disapears but keeps coming back every half minuite or so and makes viewing very annoying. whilst the message is on screen if you switch the main screen back on ie the beo 7 the message in link room goes away. So seems problem is sky thinks is connected to the link tv via hdmi but in fact im watching a linked tv via the B&O link system via coax ect. Does anyone know a work around or a fix would be much appreciated. i never had this problem on my mark 1 beovision 7 but this was connected via component as my beomedia used the dvi so seems must be to do with hdmi connection and im thinking lots of fellow users must be having this problem thanks

Hi Paul,

 I don't have a solution but you are not alone - I have been having this problem since my BV7-40 Mk3 software was upgraded to the latest version last week.

 If I get a solution I will post it here for you!

Cheers,

Martin

Thanks Martin

I will keep an eye on Beoworld. So it seems my dealer would have some idea on this problem and that B & O are working on it but is currently no fix as i have just been reading the software update forum, interesting!!!

Thanks

Paul

Unfortunately I'm experiencing the HDCP link room problem. Reported twice to my dealer, still waiting for an answer.
Out of interest has this HDCP problem been going for weeks or months!!

Since sw 5.00 which was released early November.

See thread:

This problem seems to have been introduced with software 5.00/5.02...I believe a new software fix is on the way.
would you have any idea how long for the software fix when you say on the way do you know is it weeks or months. How do you get new software does dealer have to come and install i guess
