Mac Integration without any B&O audio master
in Beo-Mac · Jan 24, 2012 07:51Sounds like what I am looking for. I expected that extra hardware would be necessary to fill the gap if I want the Beolabs to play audio from the MacMini directly (w/o the BV 7-40). However, >€ 2k for the Beoport which w…
Mac Integration without any B&O audio master
in Beo-Mac · Jan 16, 2012 17:18That is what I do right now but as said, I would like to avoid switching on the TV if I just want to listen to music. That is why a lean "audio master" that interfaces with PCs may make sense.
Mac Integration without any B&O audio master
in Beo-Mac · Jan 16, 2012 15:09The MacMini (late 2010) is next to the BV 7-40 and currently connected to it via HDMI. This means, however, that I need to power on this electric heater TV even if I just want to listen to music (internet radio or iTunes…
Apple release new Mac Mini with HDMI !
in Beo-Mac · Jan 16, 2012 10:36I have this late 2010 MacMini and have connection problems with my BV 7-40: Whenever I boot the Mac, it always disable audio via HDMI and reverts to internal audio jack. So, I have to go into the OSX Audio/MIDI settings …
Mac Integration without any B&O audio master
in Beo-Mac · Jan 16, 2012 10:29I have a BV 7-40 and several beolabs but don't want to buy any B&O audio master device. My MacMini holds my music/video/internet radio and therefore a B&O audio master would be plain redundant. Is there any 3rd interface…
No more IR remote control to Mac with P.MUTE - New bug found in latest firmware 4.74a
in Beo-Mac · Nov 5, 2009 10:58I thought I may update this posting. The problem was not solved as one important remains: In P.MUTE mode, the BV 7-40 automatically goes to stand by after a while as it seems to expect a video signal which may not arrive…
Finnaly......Mac Mini to BV, only using HDMI
in Beo-Mac · Nov 5, 2009 10:47Very nice indeed. However quite "expensive" compared to a regular HDMI cable plus any cheapo optical<->coax S/PDIF adapter. I use such combo and it works like a charme. It just looks ugly.

Macbook Pro: Optical Out --> where put in into B&O equipment
in Beo-Mac · Mar 28, 2009 10:11There is no such thing as "high quality" signal conversion in TOS to COAX converters. It is digital-digital. It just changes the way of connection. There is no need to use a bulky recorder for that task that can be done …

Activate Front Row using V.AUX?
in Beo-Mac · Mar 25, 2009 15:22I would be very curious to learn more about what you talk. Are all key presses on the Beo4 passed to the Mac via IR? Can you program different actions depending on which key is pressed on the Beo4. Would you have any adv…
Macbook Pro: Optical Out --> where put in into B&O equipment
in Beo-Mac · Mar 25, 2009 15:19Toslink to Coax Adapters are selling for mere 10 Euro at Ebay. You can safely go with a budget version. It just convert the plug type without affecting the sound.
