Eclipse Sound Center 55 ver1 and newer LG panels C9, CX, C1
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 5, 2021 05:12 GMT

As far as I am aware, unless things have changed very recently, the panels are still available from B&O as a spare part (just not the complete screen) - ask your dealer to put you in contact with their service partner if…

The MasterLink protocol and opensource
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 28, 2021 21:41 GMT

Looking at the schematics within the ouverture service manual, it seems to i2c is not used by the tuner board (it simply loops through the tuner PCB and onwards to the RDS decoder PCB). Instead, the lines you would be in…

[quote user="Acrusty"] Könnte man zB auch einfach den I2C einer Ouverture mithören und dann reagieren? Würde gerne den Tuner Teil trennen und was eigenes einspeisen [/quote] I haven't tried this, but yes, it should be po…

[quote user="maki82"]It seems like there are 2 more capacitors which are not ok, just on the other side of the cooling unit. I am going to give a try and to replace them, I mean if it‘s the reason why the BS5 screen is g…

Yep, that capacitor certainly doesn't look happy, and the one next to it looks like it is bulging too (although it may just be the way the light is reflecting in the photo). The electrolytic capacitors are the usual culp…

Sometimes don't wake up after standby mode at BeoMaster 5.
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Sept 9, 2020 21:54 GMT

The software update should happen automatically given time, but if you google for the 'Beosound 5 installation guide' and look at page 34 of this pdf, you'll find the procedure for triggering it manually, either with or …

Sometimes don't wake up after standby mode at BeoMaster 5.
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Sept 9, 2020 16:49 GMT

It was a long time ago, so I can't remember precisely. To be clear, my upgrade was from 1TB (factory installed) to 2TB HDD, not SSD (I'm planning at some point to move from 2TB HDD to 2TB SSD). I connected both drives to…

Another option would be to replace the passive with a beolink active, and add your own amplifier.

A big THANK YOU and a question for Beoworlders?

I usually work on the basis that forgiveness is easier to obtain than permission ;-)

Beovision 7 How do I clean the inside of the screen
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 26, 2020 01:40 GMT

A damp cloth (water, plus a little dish detergent) works well too, but you need a dry cloth to hand (or several dry cloths). Wipe with the damp cloth first, then quickly buff with the dry cloth. I find it easiest to clea…

Beovision Eclipse and sky q box
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 25, 2020 16:57 GMT

If the cable used is premium certified, there really shouldn't be an issue - I often use 5m premium certified cables for wall mount installations - much longer than this and you usually have to resort to fibre optics. Of…

in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 25, 2020 11:42 GMT

If you first JOIN the moment, you can then program a My button to select this source directly in the future. Not quite full product integration but close. I tend to recommend the BeoRemote One BT version without Netflix …

I believe the Western Digital 'Blue' 3D NAND SSD is the same drive as the Sandisk Ultra 3D, so it should also work (and is often a little cheaper). I'm going to try the 2TB version soon since I'd already upgraded my BM5 …

Hi Thorne, Are you in the UK? I'm basing my answers on UK Sky Q boxes, but I know sky Q is available in some other countries and I don't know what differences (if any) there are. Whilst B&O's response about 4:4:4 10bit @…

Beovision Eclipse sound settings
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 23, 2020 23:48 GMT

As such, I tend to configure the startup group for the desired music setup (usually Left Front and Right Front only), and create a new group for Video sources (including Centre Front, and perhaps Surround speakers) and c…

The suggestion is to connect it directly to the screen for testing, not permanently, as it may aid in determining where the fault lies. If it works when connected directly to the screen, but not to the sound centre (assu…
