Out of date so quick
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 8, 2012 08:48[quote user="Peter"] I agree.. I've been a B&O fan since forever. Bought my first TV set (LS5500) in 1990 it was not the double price of a comparable Sony, but close, but so much better looking and gave that nice feeling…

The unique, one and only SOFTWARE UPDATE THREAD!
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 8, 2011 06:28I 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 a…
B&O DVB-T reception problem
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 12, 2011 17:43B&O DVB T/C tuner model 0.8.0.0 software 0.1.7.1 in a BV8-40 is showing the wrong polarity after autotune from the local transmitter. As a consequence reception is poor with sound and picture drop-out. Tried a manual tun…
BV8-40 DVB
in The Workbench · Sept 23, 2011 04:28My BV8-40 suffers from intermittent break-up of both sound and picture on all channels. I updated the software to 0.1.7.1.0. but unfortunately no changes to the reception quality. The aerial feed is providing 100% signal…

Beovision 8 noisy fan
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 11, 2011 16:03Just to clarify for other people plagued with the BV8-40 DVB fan noise: Software update to build 166d does not solve the problem. DVB software update 0.1.7.1 DOES solve the problem. (recent start of DVB transmission enab…
DVB aspect ratio
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 8, 2011 03:51Is it possible to change the aspect ratio to 4:3 (for correct output to a 4:3 link TV) as with STB's? BV8-40 DVB-HD s/w is 0.1.3.4
MX4002 link aspect ratio problems
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 5, 2011 10:20Hi Mark, The 4002 will not show a 16:9 image correctly (I believe the MX4200 will do this). You could change the picture output settings in your Humax and DVD1 to display 4:3 or 14:9 letterbox then the 4002 will be OK, b…
Beovision 8 noisy fan
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 11, 2011 06:31Keith's post suggested the update was for the mk2. Can the same update be applied to the mk1? Earlier posts suggested updates to the DVB software cured the fault. B&O web site says that if you have a BV8-40 and live in t…

in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 6, 2011 05:10Thank you Keith, Will the DVB update not help the problem? Will the Build 166d need to be done by the dealer?
Beovision 8 noisy fan
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 5, 2011 17:51Thanks Heribert but my settings are identical to yours and have not been changed from new. I found reference to the particular fan noise on the German forum: >>After a while (depending on temperature) you will realize th…
Beovision 8 noisy fan
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 5, 2011 11:45To correct my earlier post I would estimate the noise starting up around 30 minutes after switch on. Fan 1 & 2 do not vary in RPM when the noise starts so there must be a third fan. I need to find a way to strangle it.
Beovision 8 noisy fan
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 5, 2011 09:17Thanks for the suggestions. DVB is disabled as no signal is available. This perhaps does not affect the fan? The software for DVB HD is 0.1.3.4 . I assume the upgrade to the latest version has to be done by the dealer un…
Beovision 8 noisy fan
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 5, 2011 06:58One of the fans in my BV8-40 is very noisy. Is this ambient temperature/humidity related? The fan starts after about 10 minutes use and the noise appears to be coming from the left of centre of the screen looking from th…
My BV10-40 freezes occasionally
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 16, 2011 05:32BV8-40 (same chassis?) is certainly capable of doing this. It seems to happen when the (very noisy) fan starts up when it has been on a while. You have to wait a while for it to respond to any inputs from the remote cont…
How to detect 4:3 DVDs on BV7 ?
in General Discussion & Questions · May 17, 2011 05:35The TV should automatically select the correct format, but If it's the same as my BV8-40, format selection is manual. I use a PC (4:3) through S video and I have to manually select format 1 every time when changing from …

in General Discussion & Questions · May 12, 2011 07:02hfat is correct in that when watching a video source on a (linked) Avant AV>audio source means you can listen (for e.g) to the radio while the screen remains on. It does not switch off the tube and return to position 0. …
