Hi Toubro, Yes - you can directly control the Apple TV and your PS3's IR-to-Blue-Tooth converter with your Beo5. You will, of course, need the XML files for the commands for each of these devices, along with the Beo5 Con…

Finally I found a used Beolab 3500 for my kitchen
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 3, 2011 19:49 GMT

Rather than use ML junction boxes - requiring cutting, stripping and punching down of cable - I chose to use the four port ML junction boxes from OneRemote in our ML install (which includes a BL3500). These are simple 'p…

Anders - love the use of the icons you've developed. I'm not that creative so I've just made up a couple of very basic ones (in Paint, would you believe), and other than that, use text, apart from TV and Radio station lo…
