FYI DVB-HD update due tomorrow has once again been postponed until May 18´th. No explanations given!!!!!!

What a bad surprise, but nothing else suspected. Hope it will be available until christmas!

FYI Bulid 8.12a for BS3 based tv´s are now available. This solves the trouble with sound delay in linkrooms and the sound will be in synch allover.

So contact your dealer for an update and further information.

Nb: Functionality requires the tv being ready for AST...

What about just distribution to linkrooms? I mean like the bluray can downscale and send analog to linkrooms through ML and coaxial. Will this now also be possible with say a mac mini or other mediacenters?

ONLY controlled with Beo5?? Clever B&O move which will surely increase the Beo5 sales dramatically...
