23 replies
This is a transcript of B&O chat sessions in februari 2008.
I can't get it in the blog section. Maybe due to the large amount of text.
Now I will ad a link in the blog section, to get to this information.
This post can be used to comment, but I'm fine if you don't.
 
 

Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 2:02:00 PM CET]

[#3623] Thanks, I will contact my dealer and discuss it.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 2:02:00 PMCET]

[#3622] I will close for today - and wish you all a pleasant day


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 2:02:00 PMCET]

[#3621] Answer to post #3613

Sorry I overlooked this one. I think it would be too expensive to replace the inner part and LCD screen compared to the price of a new TV. But this is something you need to discuss with your dealer/workshop.


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 2:00:00 PM CET]

[#3620] Can you give feedback on #3613 before close down of the chat session? I know I have given you lots of questions today.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:59:00 PMCET]

[#3619] The chatroom will close very shortly, for today.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:56:00 PMCET]

[#3618] Answer to post #3616

We are pleased to see that you find the chat useful today.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:55:00 PMCET]

[#3617] Answer to post #3615

yes, it should work, but with a number of other wireless products in your home, it may cause problems - like for all wireless products, not just BeoLink Wireless.


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 1:53:00 PM CET]

[#3616] Very usefull chat so far. Thanks.


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 1:52:00 PM CET]

[#3615] I would like to hook up a BL2000 via ML-wireless. I know it's possible. But can I expect problems. Good to know I have constantly running 1x Mac Mini, 1x PowerBook G4 and Apple Airport Express, all working on the same wireless network.


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 1:53:00 PM CET]

Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:43:00 PMCET]

[#3614] Answer to post #3612

That is correct.


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 1:42:00 PM CET]

[#3613] I own the first BV7-32" model dated december 2004. I love it. I like to update. Simple trade in and buy a new one is the easiest, and most probably expensive option. Can you tell me if it is possible to swap the innerpart, LCD etc. for a new model?


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 1:42:00 PM CET]

[#3612] O.k. I get it. Serenata + Earset 1 are a dedicated combi. Simple and clear answer.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:38:00 PMCET]

[#3611] Answer to post #3610

The Serenata EarSet 1 cannot be used for other phones than Serenata, i.e. also not for Nokia.


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 1:35:00 PM CET]

[#3610] I would like to use "Earset 1 mobile STEREO version" headphone from the Serenata. The one with a microphone in it on my NOKIA E65. Is this possible? If so, what do I have to purchase totally (including accessories)


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:35:00 PMCET]

[#3609] Answer to post #3608

The plug in for Mac is not for a computer with Vista. BeoSound 6 is not yet working (has not been tested) with Vista. We trust we shall have a software available for this during Spring. BeoSound 6 should work with XP.


CONDE, Spain [2/27/2008 1:34:00 PM CET]

[#3608] It´s not for mac. It´s for windows VISTA or XP HOME the plug in.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:31:00 PMCET]

[#3607] Answer to post #3605

Thank you - I will pass that information on.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:31:00 PMCET]

[#3606] Answer to post #3603

I am not completely certain what the problem is. But BeoSound 6 plugin for Mac you need to run the package "beosundplugin.pkg"


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 1:28:00 PM CET]

[#3605] On my BS3200 there are 4x30 CD's stored on harddisc. A CD was stored fully but some numbers were deleted. This stored CD has 1 song #13 to be exact from a CD stored just recently. It is very odd when we play this CD. All tracks are from one artist, and when it reaches song #13 one song is by a complete different artist. I don't bother, because the CD is not one of my favorit CD's. But I would like to tell you so you can inform the techys @ B&O.


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 1:26:00 PM CET]

[#3604] Thanks for the tilting query. Now I'm convinced my son can't tilt it on its own.


CONDE, Spain [2/27/2008 1:25:00 PM CET]

[#3603] Hi, I´ve purchased a beosound 6,I´m very interesting about itunes mode. I´ve downloaded the plug in .The problem is about what file I must select when the "plug in" is downloaded, in the directory "contents".


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:21:00 PMCET]

[#3602] Answer to post #3601

I have now received information, and shall try to explain. If you push with 13% of a products weight, and the product tilts to max. 15 degrees, it must tilt back again. BV7-32 weighs approx. 30 kg.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:12:00 PMCET]

[#3601] Answer to post #3600

I must say that I do not have the information about the force to tilt a BV7-32 readily available. But I shall try if I can find it while on the chat.


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/27/2008 1:10:00 PM CET]

[#3600] Hi, can you give a reply to question #3569 (tilting BV7-32")


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/27/2008 1:04:00 PMCET]

Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/20/2008 2:06:00 PMCET]

[#3598] The chatroom is no closing. If you have further questions concerning the setup of PS2 with your TV, please let us have an e-mail.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/20/2008 2:05:00 PMCET]

[#3597] You need to connect the PS2 to a scart socket, e.g. AV1, and then in the setup menu "name" the socket to e.g. V.TAPE. Then when you choose V.TAPE on the remote control you "open" for the scart socket, and will receive the signal from the product which is connected to the scart socket, in this case PS2.


Eric, Sweden [2/20/2008 2:02:00 PM CET]

[#3596] Playstation 2. Don't know which BO TV model. It's about 8 years old.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/20/2008 2:01:00 PMCET]

[#3595] Please note that the chatroom is now closing


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/20/2008 1:57:00 PMCET]

[#3594] Answer to post #3593

Which TV do you have? - and which PS do you want to connect?


Eric, Sweden [2/20/2008 1:56:00 PM CET]

[#3593] I want to hook up a Playstation console to my TV. How do I "search" to get the signals from the Playstation onto the TV screen? Menu-Setup-?


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/20/2008 1:34:00 PMCET]

[#3592] Answer to post #3589

I can see that we did receive an e-mail from you. But we would like to have further details about your setup, as mentioned in my previous answer


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/20/2008 1:26:00 PMCET]

[#3591] Answer to post #3589

If you send us an e-mail with the details of your products (names and type nos. - but serial nos. can also help us)and how the products are connected (i.e. which products are in which room etc.), we shall try to help you with information. But it is difficult to do via the chatroom, so therefore it should be by e-mail


Eros Faina, Italy [2/20/2008 1:24:00 PM CET]

[#3590] Tank a lot you have been very Kind. Have a nice day. Eros


Jamie Ward, United Kingdom [2/20/2008 1:23:00 PM CET]

[#3589] Thank you for your reply, my local dealer is truying to help but cannot find the reason either. What details do you require?? i have all serial numbers etc. I used to run the whole system through an MX5500 with STB, Decoder, RF and system module with no problems, unfortunately this was replaced with the Beovision 8 which doesn't. Jamie


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/20/2008 1:21:00 PMCET]

[#3588] Answer to post #3586

BeoLink 7000 is fully compatible with Beosystem 7000, and other Bang & Olufsen products with two way communication, e.g. Beosystem 6500, Beosystem 2300 (of the two way version).


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/20/2008 1:18:00 PMCET]

[#3587] Answer to post #3584

I am afraid we cannot from you description say why your BeoVision 8 does not work with Beocenter 2300. In order to obtain help I suggest you contact your Bang & Olufsen dealer - or write us an e-mail with further details about your setup.


Eros Faina, Italy [2/20/2008 1:18:00 PM CET]

[#3586] Sorry again but can you tall me with witch product it is fully compatible? It a so incredible object that i would like to use it at is best.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/20/2008 1:15:00 PMCET]

[#3585] Answer to post #3583

Yes, Beolink 7000 can operate both BeoSound 3200 and BeoSound 9000, but only for normal daily use. Two-way communication is not supported on BeoSound 9000 and 3200 so this remote is not fully compatible. We recommend Beo4 for these products.


Jamie Ward, United Kingdom [2/20/2008 1:10:00 PM CET]

[#3584] I am experiencing problems connecting a new Beovision 8 (fitted with system module) with my Beocentre 2300 via a ML/MCL converter. The system works fine with my Beocenter 1. I also have a set of Beolab 8000's and several sets of passive speakers in link rooms. I've been advised by my local dealer and someone in technical it is not possible to use the Beovision 8 as the master and this would be overcome by utilising a Beocentre 6 is this correct. Jamie


Eros Faina, Italy [2/20/2008 1:09:00 PM CET]

[#3583] Good Afternoon, sorry I woul like to know if the Bolink 7000 works with the boesound 9000, or the Beosound 3200. I will be very geatfull if you can answare to this my question. Eros

[#3576] @Guido, offcourse unhook the monitor and connect it to the TV...


Myriam, Spain [2/13/2008 1:49:00 PM CET]

[#3575] Hola buenos dias


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/13/2008 1:49:00 PM CET]

[#3574] @Guido, Hook up your standard monitor to the PC. Set the video resolution to 1024 x 768 or lower. This way you should see something on your TV. Regardless what DVI cable


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/13/2008 1:49:00 PMCET]

[#3573] Answer to post #3570

As much as we appreciate your help, we must ask you to let us answer the customer question. I hope that you will understand this and use other channels to chat together, eg the Forum.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [2/13/2008 1:47:00 PMCET]

[#3572] Answer to post #3568

You need to enter the setup menu and make sure that you have chosen DVI as source, if ofcourse you are using this as input.


Guido, Germany [2/13/2008 1:47:00 PM CET]

[#3571] i have the cable with 24 pin and one long pin


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/13/2008 1:45:00 PM CET]

[#3570] @Guido, There are 3 parts that make it work (PC, TV, cable). I had difficulties with the DVI cable. For me a fully wired cable was the best. First I used a cable with 18 pins, now I use a 24 pins cable.


Coolskin, Netherlands [2/13/2008 1:44:00 PM CET]

[#3569] We have a son of about 2 years now. He is very mobile and demanding. First I could shout and he would leave the BV7 on motor stand alone. Now he doesn't anymore. When he wants he pushes with his both bare hands to the screen. At one time the foot came of the ground. This made me wonder how much force does it need to tilt a BV7 like I have. Do you know?


Guido, Germany [2/13/2008 1:42:00 PM CET]

[#3568] ok thx i have now the button pc on the remote, but i have no Picture on the tv my pc have connect to beovision 7 and on the tc is rigth the PC led on

[#3518]Answer to post #3516We must keepthe language in English in the chatroom. In order to obtain a Mastercode forBeoSound 1 you need to contact an authorised dealer. You need to show some IDand give them a postal address. Then the Mastercode will be sent to you bypost. I doubt that they will be able to help with the PIN-code.

I can see that there is a small hole in the rear at the back of theplate on the stand. But I cannot see that there is a matching hole in BeoSound1. I cannot say what the holes you mention might be for.

CustomerService, Bang & Olufsen [1/30/2008 2:00:00 PMCET]

[#3511]Answer to post #3510Yes, it iscorrect that BeoSound 1 is not fixed to the floorstand, but is placed over the4 pins. There is no larger pin or screw for this. We have not experiencedproblems with BeoSound 1 falling off the stand.

Frank vanEkeren, United Kingdom [1/30/2008 1:54:00 PM CET]

[#3510] Isit correct that the Beosound 1 is not actually fixed to the floorstand, butjust placed loosily on the stand on 4 tiny pins? There seems to be an extrahole in the stand and acorresponding hole in the system, which suggest that alarge screw or pin might fit to secure the system to the stand. No suchpin/screw was delivered however. I would find it very odd if the system can notbe fixed to the stand as it quite easily could fall of. grateful for yourresponse, thanks, Frank van Ekeren

[#3509] Youranswer is noted

CustomerService, Bang & Olufsen [1/30/2008 1:48:00 PMCET]

[#3508] Icannot help with a solution based on your description. It is the dealer who cancome up with a solution. But as your telephone is 3,5 years old and has had noprevious problems, I am quite certain that we cannot offer to repair thetelephone free of charge or at a reduced price. But in order to find outwhether the telephone is in fact defective, it will be necessary for thedealer/workshop to have a look at it.

Thomas,Denmark [1/30/2008 1:45:00 PM CET]

[#3507] Comeup with a possible solution or suggestion to solving the problem, this cannotbe the first time someone experienced this problem.

CustomerService, Bang & Olufsen [1/30/2008 1:44:00 PMCET]

[#3506]Answer to post #3505I must askyou to contact a dealer, as I am unable to help from a distance. I am notcertain what you would like me to do through the chat or e-mail?

Thomas,Denmark [1/30/2008 1:42:00 PM CET]

[#3505] Sodo I. But also I expect more support from you, when this type of failureshappens. We had 2 reasons for choosing this products design and quality, andfor the last I do expect more than 3,5 years life.

CustomerService, Bang & Olufsen [1/30/2008 1:39:00 PMCET]

[#3504]Answer to post #3503I am sorryif the telephone is defective. But this can happen with Bang & Olufsenproducts also. We understand that you are disappointed if the telephone isdefective and requires a repair. But we must consider this to be an unfortunatebut accidental failure, which may occur in any electronic equipment.

Thomas,Denmark [1/30/2008 1:36:00 PM CET]

[#3503] Iwas just under the - apparently - wrong impression that a service chat wasactually able to come up with some suggestions. Going to a dealer with a phonethat is 3,5 years old, and therefore outside national guarantee will be asignificant write off. I dont'get surprised if a cheap phone breaks down thatsoon, but not a B&O product.

CustomerService, Bang & Olufsen [1/30/2008 1:32:00 PMCET]

[#3502]Answer to post #3501I am sorrythat Fona asked you to call us to get help. But it is not possible for us totell from a distance what may be the reason for the problem. This is why I haveto refer you back to a dealer. If Fona cannot help, I suggest you contact adedicated Bang & Olufsen dealer to get help. You can find dealer addresseson our website, if required.

Thomas,Denmark [1/30/2008 1:29:00 PM CET]

[#3501] Icall you for help, yesterday the official B&O dealer FONA in Aalborg toldme to contact you. Seems to me that responsibility is just being pushed on. Ihave a technical issue with a high profiled and expe3nsive product and franklyI expect more service from B&O than when calling a low budget company.

[#3654] Hi Michael, if the problems persists and you can't get a replacement CD player from your dealer? In Germany there is a shop who has them on stock. Sometimes a kit is on auction at eBay.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [3/12/2008 1:47:00 PMCET]

[#3653] Answer to post #3652

It is not possible to say what may be the reason for the problem. It will be necessary to take the product to a workshop, and have a technician look at it. It does look as if there is a fault in the product.


Michael, Denmark [3/12/2008 1:44:00 PM CET]

[#3652] Hi, my Beosystem 2500 from 1992 has got a problem with the CD. It plays appr. 1 number and then it stops whereafter the CD runs backwards at high speed. I have to turn it off in order to restart the CD. Have you got an idea what the problem is?

Coolskin, Netherlands [3/12/2008 1:24:00 PM CET]

[#3634] This event happend before, some years ago. I was invited too. The boat was loaded with B&O stuff. And most important all models were in working order. There was a little cinema with (at that time) the latest video system, the Beovision Avant. All in cinema setup. IMPRESSIVE. I love B&O touch, sound, looks. On the boat I will see the latest, like the BL10 and BV4 with automatic screen calibration. I'm lucky to live in Holland then.

We regret to learn that you experience problems with your BeoLink Wireless system. From a distance, we cannot identify the problem but it may be a wireless broadband connection which interrupts BeoLink Wireless. I recommend that you contact an authorized dealer about this.

I am afraid that we are not able to recommend a Blu-ray player.


Dr. Adolph, Germany [5/7/2008 1:39:00 PM CET]
[#3754] Okay - I have one question more: actually B&O is not offering a Bluray Player. So I have to take another product. Can you recommend a product (Panasonic or Sony or something else) what is communicationg with the software of the BeoVision 7-40 MKIII with any technical problems?

Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [5/7/2008 1:37:00 PMCET]
[#3753] Answer to post #3752
At this point, I am afraid that we are not able to inform about the situation with a 100 Hz screen.


Dr. Adolph, Germany [5/7/2008 1:36:00 PM CET]
[#3752] I assume that B&O is coming with a 100Hz display in the future. Make´s it sense to wait for that?

Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [5/7/2008 1:34:00 PMCET]
[#3751] Answer to post #3750
The BeoVision 7-40 MKIII is Full HD, but not a 100 Hz screen.


Dr. Adolph, Germany [5/7/2008 1:33:00 PM CET]
[#3750] Okay, but the BeoVision 7-40 MKIII is HD ready as far as I understood, so I don´t need that kit. What´s about the 100Hz technique? Many other TV´s on the market are now available with this new technique but not B&O. This question is very similar like my first question with the 24P technique.

Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [5/7/2008 1:29:00 PMCET]
[#3749] Answer to post #3748
The HD ready kit is for TVs which are not HD ready. The DVB-S module is for SDTV.


Dr. Adolph, Germany [5/7/2008 1:26:00 PM CET]
[#3748] In the German price list I found a position called "HD ready kit price 345,--€" What is a HD ready kit?? Next question: B&O is offering a DVB-S Module - is that module for HDTV or SDTV?

Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [5/7/2008 1:25:00 PMCET]
[#3747] Answer to post #3744
The BeoVision 8 cannot detect that you have active speakers set on the TV when it is a third party product. Therefore it is not possible to use the speaker option.


Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [5/7/2008 1:23:00 PMCET]
[#3746] Answer to post #3743
I mean ofcourse when the software is available, your Bang & Olufsen dealer can do the upgrade. It is not possible to do yourself. Please talk to your dealer about the condition for a software upgrade.

Dr. Adolph, Germany [5/7/2008 1:21:00 PM CET]
[#3743] What does the term "...when this is possible." mean? Most probably you mean the "availability" of the software upgrade. It should be technically possible! Can I make the software upgrade for myself or is this a job for a B&O center? In the second case it would generate extra costs?!

You can buy the TV now and then have it software upgraded when this is possible.


Dr. Adolph, Germany [5/7/2008 1:16:00 PM CET]
[#3740] That means that I should not buy the BeoVision 7-40 MKIII yet but in August or September? Is that correct?

Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [5/7/2008 1:13:00 PMCET]
[#3739] Answer to post #3738
We are still working on a solution for the BeoVision 7-40 MKIII to handle 24P. We expect the software to be released during this Summer.


Dr. Adolph, Germany [5/7/2008 1:10:00 PM CET]
[#3738] Okay! I´m interested in the Beovision 7-40 including the Beosystem 3. Can this system show video material with the so-called 24P-technique. 24P is closely linked to Bluray DVD material.

No, the sound cannot be changed either from the system in the living room. You might try to change the location of the BeoLab 2000 as this will change the sound performance.

Jetzt habe ich das gleiche Problem wieder. Gibt es noch eine CD Laufwerk für das Beocenter 9500, welches mein Händler mir einbauen könnte? Ich habe ausserdem in Foren gelesen, dass es zu 99 % in allen Fällen an einem Elektrokondensator liegen würde. Nach dem Austausch des Kondensators würde das CD Laufwerk wieder super funktionieren. Da ich das BEOCENTER 9500 nicht verschrotten möchte, da sein Zustand wie neu ist, würde ich mich über Ihre Hilfe sehr freuen. mfg Dirk Wortmann

The iPod can be connected to the BeoSound 3200 via the AUX connection. Your dealer will be able to help you with the cable.

I answer in English, as we have to keep the language in English in the chat room. It is not possible to say what may be the reason for the defect, and therefore it is also difficult to say whether it can be repaired. But I would think that it is possible to repair the telephone. Please contact your Bang & Olufsen dealer in order to have the telephone checked and repaired.

[#3858] Answer to post #3857
It could also be other reasons. But it is difficult to tell from here what could be the reason. The speaker or BeoSound Ouverture could be defective. In that case it would be necessary to contact a dealer/workshop in order to have the products checked and repaired.

You can download the user guide from our website (register under Community)free of charge. Please make sure to download the "old" version of the guide, not the latest one, as your base is probably a different one. You can also write to us through our website, and we can try to help via e-mail.

Customer Service, Bang & Olufsen [6/18/2008 1:22:00 PMCET]
[#3853] Answer to post #3851
It is possible to use just one speaker. So the reason for the problem is not caused by just having one speaker. It is difficult to say what could be the reason for the problem. But it is necessary that the Power Link cable you use is OK. You could also try to move the cable to the other Power Link socket of BeoSound Ouverture, in order to ensure that it is not the socket in the system that is defective.

Stefan, Romania [6/18/2008 1:19:00 PM CET]
[#3851] I have some problems with a B&O system I bought these days and I thought your experience in selling B&Os could help me. I have a Beosound Ouverture produced in 1991 and I just bought one (only one speaker) Beolab 6000 active speaker. After I connected the speaker to the power supply everything looked ok - the red led of the 6000 lighted. I connected the Powerlink cable from the Ouveture to the Beolab 6000 speaker and it seems the LED doesn't go green. It seems that the audio signal from the Ouverture is not passed to the Beolab 6000. I have switched the bottom button of the Beolab to be left speaker and then right and nothing happens. The speaker led remains red and no music is heard. My question is... it is absolutely necessary to have two speakers in order that the system to work ? Can I use a single beolab 6000 speaker with the beosound ouverture at least to test the speaker ? Any advice should help. I have tried all the possibilities and no result till now. 

[#3845] Answer to post #3844
Sorry for this late reply. The handset/base registration procedure is described in the user guide. The procedure is different depending on which base station you have. If you have the BeoLine MK II base station you can open the base for registration by connecting it to a power outlet. The base will start flashing which indicates that you can now register the handset. The base will flash in five minutes. This means that you have to register the handset within these five minutes. You can access the base registration through the BeoCom 6000 settings menu.

EarSet 2 is optimised for Serene, but as it follows the Bluetooth standard it will - in principle - work with any Bluetooth enabled device, such as mobile phones, PCs, smart phones etc. However, even though EarSet 2 applies the Bluetooth standard, complete compatibility of EarSet 2 with all Bluetooth devices cannot be guaranteed. Some producers may not follow the standard 100 per cent or interpret the specifications of the standard differently than Bang & Olufsen does.

[#3956] Answer to post #3955
We would suggest that your colleague contacts an authorised dealer in London: http://www.bang-olufsen.com/page.asp?id=4 - He can refer to an authorised workshop if necessary.

[#3955] My colleague has a B&O bluetooth headset which he uses with his blackberry handset. It has stopped working. Who can take a look at this in London - are there any authorised service agents? Thanks in advance.

You will need to contact an authorised Bang & Olufsen dealer. You can find dealer addresses from our website: http://www.bang-olufsen.com/page.asp?id=4 He will also be able to inform you of the costs to have the product added, as I do not have any prices here.

[#3952] Thank you for your feedback. Who do I contact to have the box added and what is the cost approx.?

[#3951] Answer to post #3950
We have to say that this Panasonic box is not in the list of compatible boxes which can be controlled with Beo4/Beo5. We have two Panasonic DMR boxes in the list, i.e. DMR-BW900 and DMR-EX100. Whether DMR-XW 300 will become available in the future, I cannot say today. But you can contact your dealer and ask him to give this feedback to our system, so that it will be considere for future updates. You can also choose to have this box added at your own expense.

[#3950] Hello, I have a Panasonic DMR-xw300 set top box and would like to connect to my system using the set-top box controller but cannot find the model details from the models available. Are there any updates to the Beovision 7 that will enable me to access my set-top box using the Beo4?

Nice to hear. Hope you enjoy our day off.

[#3947] Wednesday is my day off. I'm at home, chatting with you. I'm able to do that because our son is fast asleep. When he wakes up I have to leave...

Hi, welcome to the chatroom
I had not realised that they were still doing this! The quality of answers unfortunately has not changed much! 😂 We do have the service manual for the Beolit 700 by the way! Both sorts! 😂

Is it me, or does this look like a waste of time for B&O ?  Too little time, and not enough means to express the true nature of the problem by typed chat - resulting in a bit of a 'bun fight'..  I bet the guy at B&O goes straight for a strong coffee after that.

Are 'contact your dealer' or 'RTFM' on some kind of  'hot-keys' too? 😛

It just makes me aware that we are doing a darn fine job here!
