BeoSound 5 without BeoMaster 5
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 21, 2020 23:12 GMT

If you go one step further it should be easy enough re-using the internal ML / PL / power management board of the BM5. As far as I remember it's just connected via USB internally. In general the hardware aspect is not a …

BeoSound 5 without BeoMaster 5
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 21, 2020 19:07 GMT

Hi all Beo enthusiasts, over the years and especially lately I was getting several personal messages about this old thread here from 2015 . I was talking about using the BS5 (still a nice piece of art) without the pretty…

Beo6 with no touch functionality.
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 2, 2020 12:32 GMT

[quote user="manfy"] I strongly disagree with replacing - or even ordering - the chip unless you have experience in SMT soldering and the right equipment for it. On Mouser it says that this is a 4mm CSP package (chip sca…

Beo6 with no touch functionality.
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 2, 2020 08:11 GMT

The best way to start is just taking an oscilloscope and try to see if there is clock & data activity and a stable power supply. Due to the good availability of the chip the next step would be replacing it carefully. Whi…

Beo6 with no touch functionality.
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 1, 2020 18:55 GMT

[quote user="manfy"]No, that seems unlikely! The chip has only 13 sensor inputs, so at best you'd get a 6x7 matrix of touchscreen points and that's way too low for an acceptable touchscreen resolution. I'm quite sure tha…

[quote user="Weebyx"] It is this IC. https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/AD7147.pdf /Weebyx [/quote] okay, thanks. Good to know. Luckily still available. So if that’s the common problem he…

Anybody knows which capacitive touch interface chip the Beo6 screen is using? Often those chips are directly located on the flex cable that connects to the digitizer. once you have the type you can try to find its data s…

Frage zu BEO IR-Eye Version -- Question about BEO IR-Eye version
in General Discussion & Questions · May 29, 2020 17:44 GMT

Looking like one of the newer IR eyes with an embedded MCU and the screw connectors marked with Rx/Tx instead of SDA/SCL. So the best bet here is that communication is UART instead of I2C. Without knowing the protocol it…

Power Supply ML-Produkte mit ML/NL Converter
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · May 13, 2020 18:07 GMT

Wie gesagt, ist im Schaltplan der Ouverture alles genau beschrieben und nicht mal eben so einfach gemacht. Möglich das es auch etwas einfacher über Spannungsreferenzen oder korrekt dimensioniere Spannungsteiler geht, rat…

[quote user="moritz001"] Jedoch gelingt mir das nicht auf den genannten Pins. [/quote] Die beiden Datenpins müssen “versorgt” werden. Sonst kann da ohne Master nichts kommunizieren. +/- 0.25 V wenn ich mich recht erinner…

Beosound Encore
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 26, 2020 17:50 GMT

Hi, ja, das funktioniert leider etwas anders als man zunächst vermutet. In der Übersicht der Alben das gewünschte Album markieren und direkt auf GO drücken. „Öffnet“ man ein Album und wählt einen Titel direkt aus, wird a…

Hi, could be the same problem as described here. https://archivedforum2.beoworld.org/forums/p/25632/207391.aspx

Hi, bitte zusätzlich zu HDMI mal versuchen ein SCART Kabel an die zur Quelle dazugehörige Buchse anzuschließen. Meines Wissens nacht tritt genau dieses Problem auf wenn der TV nicht erkennt ob das Quellgerät eingeschalte…

Beo5 fixed to death
in Beo5 & Beo6 · Apr 11, 2018 17:15 GMT

Hi, the touchscreen of the Beo5 doesn't work exactly the same as you might have expected. The upper part of the display (the digitizer) must (!) have some mechanical play as it also has the function of a mechanical butto…

Apple TV starts wrong HDMI

[quote user="Sal"]Thanks BeoMotion, I looked in the ATV settings and found the "Home Theater Control" and set that to Off, that has solved the source switching upon Apple Remote wake. I didn't even know that option exist…

Apple TV starts wrong HDMI
in Other · Dec 19, 2017 14:53 GMT

[quote user="Sigmund"]That makes sense! In the CONNECTIONS menu, the STB has the TV source on AV2, and Apple TV got the PC source on AV5, the only port that was left. What would be the best strategy to change this? My re…

Apple TV starts wrong HDMI
in Other · Dec 18, 2017 17:18 GMT

Hi, Apple TV 4 detects via HDMI to which TV model it is connected to. If a BV7 is detected it sends the „TV“ source IR command out of the ATV remote every time you wake it up from sleep. If this source is not coupled to …

Hi Ludwig, thanks for your input! Yes, not sure why only very few people are interested in such a solution. Manufacturing only 10 or 20 boards doesn't make that much sense to me. This is also the reason I slowed down any…

Unfortunately haven't had the time yet to start designing the board but thought about it a lot. The survey was filled out 30 times now and most of them are also interested in ML connectivity. That makes me think whether …
