New product launch - beosound theatre?

The player has a somewhat decent UI – however, I do not want to look at that screen the whole album through.
The BR1 List" feature doesn't show the command "Show Picture" (as the Harmony or Eclipse)? Your player doesn't have an "AUDIO only" setting?
What player is that by the way?

just asking out of interest...
That is a Sony UHD player (which I have choosen because it supports playback of SACD’s).

It might (or might not) have an option of turning off the screen/a audio only setting.
I would have to look in the manual for this.
Never unpacked the remote, because I don’t use it…..it is PUC’ed.
So even if there should be a button there, it does not help me.

The problem is, that - with the Theatre - you have no display of the PUC-mapping of the original buttons, like we used to have on previous BV’s.
So no help there either ?

And - P.Mute ought to be a universal function, because it also is needed, if you listen to music only via the ATV or from the mediaplayer (or other music apps) of the tv.

Thanks, and yes I agree, it shouldn't be beyond the realms for the Picture mute to be implemented.

Not something that is relevant to my music use case, but I can definitely see the need for it.

Thanks a lot!
No such entry in my Theatre List (also the Multiview entry is not there).
I guess the List is case sensitive depending on the product (and the settings of the product).

Then again - if it was possible with the previous LG based BV’s, why shouldn’t it be so with the Theatre combo!

I set up an extra Listening Position to be able to do some comparisons between using 7.0.4 with the fronts and rears being BL9 speakers and using 7.1.4 adding a Beolab 2 subwoofer with the same setup. Adding the BL2 definitely adds more overall warm bass to the sound. However, I feel that adding the BL2 takes away from the sense of surround sound. I used the movie "Lucy" for the comparisons. This is one of the movies that has been recommended for its use of Dolby Atmos. I'm wondering if the diminished sense of surround is due to the capabilities of the Beolab 2, if the bass of the four Beolab 9 speakers without any additional subwoofer just works better for surround sound, or if I have all of the settings entered manually in advanced settings for the Beolab 2 connected via Receiver 1 are just wrong and that has a big impact on the surround sound. I suspect Geoff Martin would have some interesting explanations about this. I really hope that B&O gets the Receiver 1 support properly implemented so that I could just rely on Room Sense to take care of all of the settings.
Hi Guys!

Hoping to get some advice/help with my Theatre. I don’t know what the problem is (or if there is one) but I am only getting 5.0.2 output with Atmos content. I am attaching a screen shot of incoming signal as Atmos but outputting 5.0.2. I am pretty sure this is supposed to be outputting 7. Correct? Any help/advice is as always very much appreciated :) thanks!
