Great idea - wasn’t aware that you could repurpose these drivers. Did you set them both to center subs? (on the diagram it would appear that is a rear center sub)?

I’ve just set them to “Subwoofer left” and “Subwoofer right”. I hope that will sound well.
I already have a Beolab 2 subwoofer set to the role of “Subwoofer centre”.

Not sure Sub Left/right makes much sense as they are both in the dead centre. Maybe list them both to be Sub/centre and the Beolab 2 to Sub left or right.

Hello,

Using the last Beta application, I have a problem with the Role assigment screen.

After selecting the role, I do not find how to get out of the screen (see picture below) to go to the next speaker.

All I can do is killing the app and of course the selection is not memorized.

Do you have the problem or am I missing something?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Yann,

I have the exact same problem, and I don't use the beta version.

Have you found a solution ?

André

Hi there,

I am not on any beta version either and I also experienced a similar issue. The only solution that worked for me was to factory reset the Beosound Theatre and start over. Then it all worked. My guess is all the updates have made the previous setup and settings corruptive.
Factory reset is not as bad as it sounds - it is much quicker than to waste time on trying to make it work by not performing a factory reset.

Hi Andre,

I found that the problem seems to be related to a setting in my iPhone.

The "large character size" in the Screen Zoom of the "brightness and display" settings (at the bottom of the list) was selected.

Turning to the "default" size solved the problem in the B&O app.

I sent this information to the development team through the app but had no reply from them.

Kind regards,

Yann.

Wow, that worked!

Thanks a lot:-)

Kind regards,

André

EDIT: After a factory reset all speakers are added to the list and the issue is resolved. I will leave the post for reference.

Today, I attempted to add a pair of BL3 speakers to my BeoSound Theater setup and would like to hear if other forum members have experienced similar issues.

Previously, I had only used a pair of BL5 without any problems. However, when adding the BL3s, I encountered the following issue: while the test sound plays successfully through all four speakers during setup the resulting speaker list only shows 2 or 3 speakers instead of all 4 after finishing the setup process. The configuration varies—sometimes it lists 1 BL5 and 2 BL3s, and other times 2 BL5s and 1 BL3.

Even worse, when I disconnect the BL3s and try just to setup the BL5s again sometimes only 1 BL5 end up in the list.

Currently, the BL5s are daisy-chained through PL1. For the BL3s, I used Y-splitters. I tested two configurations: both BL3s on a single Y-splitter connected to PL2, and each BL3 on separate Y-splitters connected to PL2 and PL3. In one instance, I managed to get all speakers recognized using two Y-splitters, but I need it to work with just one, as the BL3s will eventually be wired to the back.

To troubleshoot, I tested the setup on two different iPhones and an Android device, but the issue persisted. Any insights or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Images show 4 speakers in the setup and the only 2 in the resulting list.

I have now connected PUC controller for my Blu Ray player (Panasonic). I have also turned off CEC control to avoid double communication with the player. The PUC for the player is set to go in stand by "at source change".

The problem I am experiencing is that when I turn the system on to watch "live TV" this also turns on the Blu Ray player so it starts to play in the background. Have you experienced this and is there a solution please?

I have also encountered a similar problem. it is best not to use daisy-chained links. Y-splitters is allowed , But if you don't have any other speaker , I suggest that each of the 4 PL ports only corresponds to one speaker, Remember to restore to factory settings, It is important then pl1-lab5 pl2-lab5 pl3-lab3 pl4-lab3 It will solve your problem
