Has anyone seen an update for BeoSystem 3 / BV 7 recently and do you know what the updates contained. In particular, I'm looking for improved handshake functionallity over HDMI for AppleTV2 and Sky Box. I'm currently running 10.02.

In what way? I have a BV7 and I don't see any handshaking issues for either boxes and I own both? I've had a Sky HD box connected to my BV7 since 2005. No problems in the last year or so.

What problems are you experiencing?

Hi Moxxey,

Unfortunately 10.x introduced a handshake issue that made startup of the Sky box from standby sometimes will not work reliably. The resolution was to leave the Sky box always on. In my case, this was an issue with the 1TB Amstrad box.

Note sure about the AppleTV2, but I sometimes I experience similar.

I must admit, I don't ever keep my Sky box on standby - it needs to be on to get the Anytime content. I have 10.05 installed so I might try and see if it will wake the Sky box from standby, later. However, I still don't see the need for it to go on standby.

Moxxey,

Hug a tree, save the planet. Solar power is the future for your home. Or with a reliable 11.xx (we hope) that finally after nearly 5 years, we'll have a perfect BV7-40 that finally says what it does on the tin.

Lights out.

Yeah, but everything else is on standby and, frankly, the Sky box isn't doing very much when it's left on. HD access is minimal and it's not processing the incoming signal. It's in a low power state anyhow. And, as I said, you don't get the Anytime updates (as frequentely) if you leave it in standby. Which is about quarter of the reason for having the box. Nor can you record!

Apple TV goes in to standby by default though, but the BV7 has never turned it on automatically :(

Does anyone know that this update contains, and if it'll reset your channel settings if you run it?

Does anyone have information on what the Build 210 is adressing?

I think I have Build 168 or something like that, and wonder what has changed since then.

I agree. These upgrades are coming thick and fast - what are they for? Details are required from B&O but just try contacting them. A wall of silence. My BV8 is running 166d but I am reluctant to upgrade because I heard about electronic curtain problems with the new(er) version
