How is the Apple TV registered?

If as V.MEM (just to give an example) you could use AV + V.MEM on a Beo 4 remote if I remember correctly.

I am sure someone will clarify... or correct me 🙂

What remote are you using?

Ralf

Hi Ralf

Thanks for your answer. I do have the Beo 4 remote and the AppleTV is indeed registered as V.MEM. Where do I find AV on the remote? My Beo4 has the following buttons: TV, LIGHT, RADIO,DTV, DVD, CD, V.MEM, TEXT, and A.MEM.

When I press V.MEM, I see my BeoLabs 18 lighten up green but then no sound at all (unless I would turn on the projector).

However, I found a work around, putting my old HDMI Switch (Digitus) between the Beosystem 4 and Projector. :) 

Still I would be curious about your solution! 

Best, Tom

There is no A/V function on the BSys4 like with previous systems/tv's.

Thanks for clarifying MM.

Is my dealer correct with the BS Moment solution? (being able to connect to BSyst4 just via LAN Network/DLNA)? Touching the BS MOment would fire up the BSyst4 and play the sound? As I may consider this for the future...

Cheers, Tom

Sure he is right about what happens, if you connect a BS Moment.

As for AirPlaying he is not right (if he really said so).

The Moment works with Deezer for 'sky content' and with a DLNA server for 'local content'.

In addition it has TuneIn for netradio stations.

Certainly a good way to go!

(There is lots of information on how the Moment works (or not) on the forum - the BS Moment has matured massivly with the latest updates).

However, if your preference is to stream via AirPlay, that is not the way to go.

I understood, that you also have an ATV3.

Why not try to connect that via the digital-in on the BSys4 (requires a converter from optical to coax spdif) - means without the HDMI connected.

If it already is configured, it might work 'out of the box'.

Note: I am not that familiar with using a BSys4 standalone - it might cause the same trouble as via HDMI (?).

I'd give it a try, anyway, before considering other solutions.

Alternatively - you could use a Chromecast Audio for Spotify - set up the same way as above.

Thanks a lot for the detailed explanations MM... will consider the ATV3 solution with converter, but i am already happy that the HDMI switch allows me to circumvent the HDMI Projector issue with the BSys4/ATV4. The BS Moment sounds tempting too though🙂. Will dig a bit deeper on the forum. And no, he did not say that I would use Airplay on the Moment, but that I would be able to use my Spotify on this device (and deezer) without the need of airplay. I was just wondering why the BSys4 needs a HDMI signal for ATV4 and also the built-in digital radio tuner but not for the BS Moment...?
