Any BV10 owners who upgraded to 127 ???

I have had my BV 7-40 MK IV panel updatet to the MK V 200 Hz panel, and now i experience clouding issues. The BS3 software was updatet to 9.01 at the same time, so maybe not a panel issue. Has anybody experienced similar after updating their sw?

The Mk V panel isn't LED, so the backlight should be consistent over the whole panel.  Wouldn't really expect clouding issues, I would have thought.

Re the new software (and/or the problem you had a couple of pages back that Struer were going to test) - both you and I had the problem of audio over ML being quieter in the right channel in 8.12a.  Has this been resolved?

My other major issue with 8.12a is speakers not turning on (mentioned earlier in the thread).  This is reproducable 100% when the link TV is turned on to an external source (Sky HD) first, then the main TV.  Speakers stay in standby.  Has this been resolved?

Ok guys, time to bring your contribution on latest SW version of the BV7-32: which one is it??

I happen to have the latest BV7-32 (MkIV if I remember well, bought last christmas), and there's just one annoying thing: when I turn on the TV pressing DTV (all digital broadcasting now in France), there's no electronic curtain working on. And similarly, when I turn the TV off, no electronic curtain if I turn it off after DTV session (it's OK though for DVD or old regular "TV").

Could that have been fixed with a more recent SW version? Is that a bug just on my BV7?

Thanks for your input and sharing your experience,

Philippe

Hi Csmager

I know it is not LED at that is why i am amazed the clouding effect is present. Regarding the speaker issue, this has been resolved. It had nothing with the softwareupgrade to do, instead a faulty ML junctionbox.

Evidently just a huge coincidence then - I'll now actually bother getting out the multimeter and see where there's a hole in my circuit...

So, it is possible to upgrade the TV by dismantling it and just replacing the LCD panel inside! That's good to know! Is it expensive? How much time this operation takes (dismantling the TV, removing the chassis and the old panel, putting the new panel in place and reassembling the set) ? Does the upgrade requires some printed circuit boards to be replaced as well or the Beosystem 3 has all the required computing power to drive a 240 Hz panel without a hardware upgrade?

Thanks,

Jean

Hi Jean

The update was part of an agreement i made with my dealer because of a faulty Mk IV panel in the first place.

Replacing was done by the dealer and took approximately 4 hours in my own home (First time the dealer tried swapping out panels so i guess it would be a lot quicker for an experienced technician). I dont know anything about the price of the update as it was part of the service as mentioned above. Both panel and PIM modul has to be changed for it to work.

To my best knowledge, the fault has nothing to do with the softwareupdate. I guess i have a faulty replacement panel  :-(
