Unwanted side effect with AppleTV on Avant S-VHS
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 19, 2008 03:15Arno, I read the topic from the top and I have just realized you might have an Avant VCR (with tape recorder). In this case, you should have only 2 inputs available for the ATV: Decoder and AV. The VTape input is already…
Unwanted side effect with AppleTV on Avant S-VHS
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 19, 2008 02:53I'll try to answer: - Not sure I understand the question: if you have AV and VTape inputs already busy, then you are left only with the Decoder input... Otherwise, you can use one of the first inputs and use RGB signal w…
Which coax cable?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 18, 2008 19:25Hi Dave and welcome to the site. If you want to use the B&O link standard, you are linking data/audio with masterlink and data/audio/video with masterlink+coax. For the video, B&O uses multi-channel RF modulator which me…
Unwanted side effect with AppleTV on Avant S-VHS
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 18, 2008 13:07Glad I can help you. Make sure you get a adaptor for input (like this one: http://www.svideo.com/scart.html). Some do have a switch to control input/output. Also make sure the connector has a stereo sound input, as the d…
Unwanted side effect with AppleTV on Avant S-VHS
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 17, 2008 17:43Just some more ideas... Is your decoder scart available on your Avant? In this case, you can use a scart adapter (cheap) to link the ATV using composite. I personally use this. If the decoder port is not available, you c…
On which of the Scart sockets is RGB?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 16, 2008 06:18What you are saying is what I wanted to express in my post. From the BV5, you can control directly only the first level of equipment. Only newer chassis can do second level. With the ATV connected to HDR1, what you are d…
On which of the Scart sockets is RGB?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 12, 2008 20:07Hi mor, that's a good news for you. Personally, I use the decoder from www.svideo.com. Simple and neat. Here are my ideas about controlling the ATV but I am not expert with BV5. This is in the case the ATV is connected t…
BeoVision rant... are you with me?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 12, 2008 06:18Well, people watching my 1998 Avant are saying the image is a lot better than their HD LCD. However, I am limited to 32"... IMHO, I see HD today's offering more as a technological challenge and consumerism brainwash than…
On which of the Scart sockets is RGB?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 12, 2008 05:57BTW, wanting to connect an ATV to my Avant, I had the same question a few weeks ago. Because I have already HDR1 connected to V-Tape and DVD1 connected to AV, I went to connect ATV to Decoder socket using a YUV-CVBS deco…

Advice for AppleTV + Avant
in Beo-Mac · May 22, 2008 04:53Well, no answers... I also realise they are no easy answer. So I will put the question differently. Is there anyone made a connection between Apple TV and B&O TV using a composite (CVBS) converter? Is the quality of the …
Apple TV and Beovision MX7000?
in Beo-Mac · May 21, 2008 10:04Hi Marcus, having posted the same question regarding an ATV-Avant a few days ago, I will just do a further comment. In my opinion, the converter you are looking converts only Component-to-RGB. Make sure that the AV2 Expa…
Advice for AppleTV + Avant
in Beo-Mac · May 19, 2008 12:54Hi everyone! I have received an AppleTV and I would like to connect it to my Avant (CTV, EUR). Before buying the Component/RGB converter, some doubts came to my mind: does my Avant has a RGB scart for my ATV? In fact, th…

Putting BeoCenter on timer in link room
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 12, 2008 21:07I am guessing it is not 2-way because of its type and information given on the BeoWorld site: http://www.beoworld.org/prod_details.asp?pid=393 It also writes that 2616 is definitely 2-way, like you said AT. That's too ba…
Putting BeoCenter on timer in link room
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 12, 2008 12:36My BeoCenter 2300 is definitely not 2-way. Concerning the BeoSound 9000, its timer is controlled using the master, i.e. the Avant. Turning on the timer on BeoSound says: TV Operated. Turning on the timer for the radio on…
Putting BeoCenter on timer in link room
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 12, 2008 05:52Thanks AT... but I heard that timer programming with BeoLink5000/7000 would work only if you have a two-way BeoCenter 2300... From the type number of my set, I think it is only one-way. I hope to be wrong again! ;-) If y…
Beosound 3000: System freezes, doesn't react (Doors and remote control). Please help.
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 11, 2008 19:58Maybe a different problem, however there has been a time that my BeoCenter 2300 was going bananas. The doors were opening by themselves, with no reason. Or they would not open if I asked to. So I cleaned the glass doors …
Putting BeoCenter on timer in link room
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 11, 2008 19:47Thanks Lee for bumping my post. ;-) I have checked all the options on the Avant but no chance: all timer options accessible are for the sources hooked directly to the video master. No timer options for audio/video slave …
