First there are HDMI to DVI adapters, but you have to actually look and see which specific type of DVI card ( DVI A, DVI-D, DVI-I, single or dual layers ) socket you have.

How do you do this ? Click on the link below, which although old will help.

hi folks

Gefen has a HDMI Expander wich is supported by B&O (swiching automaticly via PUC!). Your Dealer should be able to provide you with such a piece (BV 7 then needs a software update). We used it already a few times and it workes just fine. 

spiderdan; do you know if it exists a B&O - BS3/BV7&9 - PUC controllable digital audio (spdif) to be used with a BL5?

I have two digital sources that i want to feed into my BL5's - a macmini and my BS9000.....currently there are only manualy switches that i'm aware off....

Thx

Thanks for the tips.  Funny that my local dealer only sells me a single optical and single coaxial out adapter. I think I can get a splitter for more than one HDMI source into the DVI but  I need to get a multi optical  in  adapter if I want to  have more than one HDMI source.

Secondly, are there any topics explain how to deal with the problem with PS3 sound output?  Every time if I want to play an audio disc with the PS3, I have to goto the setup manual to de-select the optical out and then goto the BV7 to delete the coaxial optical in.  Its is workable but troublesome.  

On your "second" question: On the BV7 MKII (which you seem to have) the whole digital audio implementation is screwed up. It doesn't support plain 2-channel stereo (PCM streams) of the digital inputs (SPDIFs) but gladly accepts 5-channel "stereo" (aka DD 5.1)... ..for some unexplainable reason. This is (and will be) a major issue with more and more HD-cable boxes only supporting digital audio (or at least is only switchable between digital and analog audio, as mine are). I have 3 sets of BV7-40 (MKII) which currently don't do much of a performance as I have no sound way of watching plain tv (news, sports etc., as they broadcast in digital stereo, normally) _or_ watch movies from the premium channels (HD) where they often broadcast DD5.1.. (without doing that manual reconfiguring of both the tv and the stb:s, when I switch channels.. Surfing through 40 channels on a saturday night isn't much fun now...).

You will have to keep reconfiguring your setup like you discribe everytime you wish to switch between digtial surround and plain digital stereo sound (which wont be digital in you $15.000 tv-set..) Way to go B&O!  

Hi tIRED,

Agree with you completely.  The digital department of the TV is pretty much screwed up.  Don't expect to face that kind of problem when you spent a fortune on a TV.

I understand it is not a B&O product, is anyone able to give us the brand and model of this splitter.
