Moved to the Lifestyle forum section due to lack of B&O content.

Looks good - do we know if the remote is wireless or bluetooth or if it can learn IR commands like the Apple TV can - great thing for me would be that it has Amazon Prime films and BBC iPlayer as well.

Does anybody tried to mount it inside the Beovision AVANT 55 cabinet ?

Would it fit ?

It's quite big I think: 115 x 115mm x 17mm.

Install this on your Amazon Fire

then this

add on of these to control from your B&O remote

Enjoy 😁

Yes it is 15 millimeter wider  and longer than Apple TV. I thought that there were some margins. In addition I do not know how long is the power cable as it will need a power brick.

 

The latest Amazon Fire 4K streamer (now reduced to £64.99 from Amazon, but needs a £79pa Prime subscription) fits comfortably inside the Avant 55 and has a one metre power cable included in the box.  You can control it directly from the beoremote one.  There is also room for a WD 1Tb USB3 disk to record/play video.

It plays YouTube 4K content beautifully - note my broadband is fibre 30 to 37mbps.

I can perform most Fire functions using the beoremote, except enabling subtitles which requires the Fire remote.  The equivalent button mapping table is no help.  Any ideas?

Just looked through the manual and it doesn't seem to have the Learn IR remote command, which apple tv has - I found this useful for controlling apple tv with a B&O remote on an older TV - has anyone discovered anywhere in a menu where you can do this on Amazon TV?

The 4KAFTV doesn't have IR at all. You will have to use a FLIRC USB to IR adapter. The code to control it is the same as the old code.
