New product launch – beosound theatre?

[BeoMedia]

is your PS5 and Apple TV connected to your TV or Theatre?

And,  a you control it with a BeoRemote one rather than your Apple Remote?

[syrianos82]

Both are wired in hdmi a and c of the theatre

I can use BR1 to operate Apple TV or the Apple TV remote or the lg magic remote, all work fine

[BeoMedia]

Okay thanks than there’s still hope 🙂

My Theatre is on sw v2.3.4 are you on the same?

Also, how does these show on your BR1? Mine only shows “HDMI A” despite I have changed it to “Blu-Ray” in the app for the Theatre.

[syrianos82]

Never give up hope 🙂

The only thing that doesn’t work is shutting down the PS5 and making the screen go to sleep.

The theatre is on Beta 2.5.3(131)

I made 2 of the 4 quick buttons setup to have an HDMI source selected and a listening postion depending on the PS5 or AppleTV.

Found the HDMi selections under TV :), you are right they show as A, B ,C

[BeoMedia]

Okay I understand thanks.
I’m on an older non-beta software.

Just to confirm, when you say CEC is set to off in the Beo app do you mean “CEC Disabled” like in my screen grab? Just trying to trouble shoot here 🙂

[syrianos82]

No sorry I deleted that comment.
i find the app confusing. The way you switched it i understand it disables CEC.

when you don’t toggle the switch right cec is enabled.

its a double negative sort of thing

[BeoMedia]

Yes confusing I would agree.

but you have not turned the toggle on hence not disabled CEC?

[syrianos82]

Correct

[syrianos82]

Also found the solution for modifying the HDMI name when selecting TV on Br1

The name needs to be changed in a different section of the app. follow the two screenshots since it’s in Dutch

“behavior at startup”

[BeoMedia]

I’ve already made these changes but the names I apply are not reflected on the BeoRemote One.
Are the names you have added shown on the BR1?

[NQVHNWI]

I think this is part of the BR1/BSTH bug.

I know if you rename a source too many times (more than twice), the only way out is a total factory reset of the BSTH.

The default display on too many renames is the APP looks OK but the remote shows “HDMI A” or similar in the source lists

[syrianos82]

yes, that’s what I meant,

the list on BR1 under TV button says

HDMI A

APPLE TV

PS5

Please excuse the dust on the remote…..and the bad quality of the photos.
But it shows how my Theatre remote looks – I have only 4 entries there (all that I need).

Thanks millemissen,

are these sources internal LG tv sources or hdmi sources connected to the Theatre?

Oh, sorry – they are connected to the Theatre and PUC’ed (except for the Chromecast Ultra dongle, obviously).
The only component of the LG-tv I use is – occasionally – the tuner…..and then the screen, of course.

yet another release of the 2.5.3 software (I think this is the 3rd time).

Is anyone else as shocked as I am that there hasn’t been a firmware update to the theatre since November 2022 when it first launched? There are plenty of known issues from launch and they just seem to be dragging their feet over at B&O. Makes me worried about future support.

[BeoMedia]

Still no update for me so my Theatre is still on v2.3.4

[NQVHNWI]

Just send a support note to B&O and ask then to push an update through. Or call your dealer. He can do the same

 

[BeoMedia]

I spoke to support recently and they advised against the beta as it was full of bugs and I would need to factory reset the Theatre if I needed to revert to the previous software.
I would prefer to wait for an official update. They’re not paying me to beta test.

Batteries  lasting 6 weeks now on my BR1

 

Having said that I would prefer no updates to ones that create more problems than they solve!
