New product launch - beosound theatre?

So now that I've added the LG WebOS TV as a system in my BLI, programmed a few macros, and renamed a few CONTROL functions, when I press CONTROL on my Beoremote One I now have the following CONTROL list:

TV Power

HDMI 1

HDMI 2

HDMI 3

HDMI 4

 

It might seem like a small thing, but it's nice to have a single remote solution again until my Theatre finally arrives!
I have raised with support a bug if you are too quick with the BeoRemote using PUC A (say to control the Sky Q) it sends a signal to PUC B which in my case is Apple TV 4K 2017, which for a second disconnects HDMI 2, a message comes up saying Theatre disconnected, connected by WiSA & Wired speakers flash red.  A moment later it all reconnects and changes source to the Apple TV.  But in doing so in the app, it thinks you have disconnected power so need to recalibrate in my case the motorised wall bracket.  The recalibration is strictly not needed as it does retain all settings, however to remove the calibration icon in the app you need to go through with it.  Support have said they cannot help remotely and to contact my dealer.  I have worked out to have patience… plus ordered the new Apple TV 4K 2022 with HLG HDR support as only £169.00 and my current Apple TV is 5 years old and doesn’t have all the resolutions my LG G2 65” can support.
So, just ordered my Theatre! :) Just a quick question, is the B&O app better on IOS or Android, or is it the same? Just wanting to set up a user hub in advanced.

Thanks

Typically most apps are better on iOS.  Basically even Android enthusiasts recommend and iPad over any android tablet. Yes that will be debatable.

Thanks, I have an old mini IPad I'll set up as a hub. The B&O AR virtual reality app is good, placed the Theatre on the wall so that I could see what it's going to look like.

Installed my BSTh yesterday. Very fiddly for the Installer to assemble with over 10 boxes of parts supplied. Cradle to cradle may be good but we will run out of trees at this rate.

Loading the LG Thinq app and registering the monitor was the hardest bit once the BST was assembled. Everything else was easy. Adding external speakers was straightforward and roomsense works very well. LG G2 has an excellent picture compared to the C7 and CX panels.

The BeoApp needs a bit of a tidy up with the way it selects sources etc but nothing major. Some questions on how the BL90s interact in wide/narrow in the BSTh. Role assignment needs some work. Nothing major and ill raise a ticket’s with support.

Overall, the sound experience is eceptional.
Great to hear,

There is definitely room for improvement on the settings in the App, and a new update have already arrived today. But I expect many updates the next couple of years.
For those with a theatre: How well does it recreate Dolby Atmos content on it's own?
Yesterday I replaced my Apple TV HD by an Apple TV 4k (v. 2022). I just took off the cables of my old Apple TV and connected the new one. The spot for the PUC cable (IR-sensor) at the new Apple TV is at the front in the middle just a few mm below the upper edge. It works and obeys to the BeoRemote One!

I just received notice tonight that my Theatre is arriving after an 8-hour drive and that it will be arriving between 12:30 a.m. and 3:00 a.m.tonight, AND that I must be available to help the driver lift it from the truck. I'm just speechless. Is Bang & Olufsen still a luxury brand?
