Hi.

I am trying to connect a Sony RDR-HX970 to my BV 7-40 MKIII and hoped to control it from the PUC/STB-list. But I can only find the STB-list and in the dvd-menu it only says UNKNOWN DVD or some B&O-dvd's. Do I have to do something special to get the PUC-list on the screen or do I have to get a new software.

Is it possible to make the PUC cable a little bit longer because the Sony will be about 11 meters from the LCD.

My other choise could be a Lintronic-box, but Michael from Lintronic can't promise that the little IR-eye (TT-IR-1455) can send the signal at such a long distance. Has anybody tried this?

;-) Jes

hello,

 

Yes you need to go to your dealer and ask him for the latest STB - PUC software list to flash in your MKIII, but first ASK him if the sony is available in the PUC list!!!! If not you can always ship your sony to denmark and pay 500 € !!! to put it in the PUC list...

Do not think that the IR cable is possible to make longer and not to worry about the signal transport for such a big distance. BUT how are you going to connect the Sony to the tv with a 11 meter long scart or HDMI???? would not even try do do that...

 

good luck with it

Nice,

well, doesn't solve the problem. Could try to put a Mini jack expander cable in between Like the ones used for making the cable on headphones longer instead of cutting the IR cable. Give it a try I will find out if the Sony is in the list. Just a minute

just checked, is currently not in the list, so save the effort I would say or you just might have 500 € to spend to put in in the list...

At least for the BS3 the good old DVD-Controller is still available. You may want to check if this one is available for the BV7 as well and if your DVD is included.

I am facing the same problem with my Panasonic DVD Recorder, not on the PUC ist, but on DVD controller list. Furthermore, someone told me there is a way to "copy" the DVD controller to the PUC list. Not sure if this is possible.

Hi all!

Thanks for your kindness!!! I have bought a 12 meter SUPRA-cable (pretty expensive) and it seems to work fine. How did you, Mr. Anders(son) make your cable og can I buy these lenght somewhere?

I can only find a stb-list and not any PUC-list. In the menu for dvd's it only show ONKNOWN DVD or some B&O dvd's.

;-) Jes
