Incidentally, I think Millemissen was asking about muting the picture?

I dont think this is the exact same thing, but again in the LG Panel settings, energy savings, you can kill the picture off.

I dont think this can be mapped to the BR1 except for MyButtons but maybe a feature request?

Beojeff,

I have heard this problem from someone on the forum. I do not experience the issues you discribe above on my G2 Panel.

I suggested previously that people check the LG screen functions. IIRC, there are two settings for quick-start (quick start+ and the 2nd I cant find 🙁  or not sure if its a combo of another setting plus quick start+)

This may help, but I think others reported it did not?

I think 3 issues I’ve seen:-

1. Changing PUC on an active source hangs the BeoApp and limits BR1. Factory reset

2. Changing BR1 names in Lists hangs the BR1 rename. Factory reset.

3. Yesterday, LG updated and the Theatre/BeoApp hung up needing a soft reboot

BeoMedia,

Ive posted lots on setting up Listening Positions. My Listening positions (all from the same position) are “Video” (5.1), “Centre” (Theatre only), “Narrow” (BL90 Narrow for discerning music), “Wide” and “Omni”. Suggest you review them and the room-sense runs. You can do practically the same thing with Centre, 2.0/2.1, 3.1 and 5.1

As far as I can collect from all the information sources, Switchable Beolabs should be set to “Free”. The Theatre will judge to bass-boost response caused by walls and corners etc…against the reference

The speaker Presets:  I believe relate to the BL90/50/28 with switchable beam control. 0 to 8.

0= Auto, 1 = Narrow, 2 = Wide, 3 = Omni,  4 – 8 Future?

With no “Official” information so far from B&O, all this is my current belief.

[NQVHNWI]

So how does Theatre know there is something connected? My assumption was some speaker role was added (even if manual addition and even if it is seen as Receiver 1 but may have any speaker connected to it).

Obviously, I’m unable to simulate this. Assumed something in “edit positions”

[NQVHNWI]

Is there nothing in…….

Listening Position >> Select >> Edit Position >> select speaker. Adjust distance, level etc…

Earlier this sacred morning…

I’ll let Beojeff fill-in the details on that but this is something I’ve seen before.

Looks like some sort of coding in the record sleeve with FLAC playback?

That does sound a little odd to me, and not what my dealer explained to me. He has a listening room with height / ceiling speakers with his Theatre setup – and he was quite clear that if there are specific external speakers allocated a particular role, then the Theatre speakers with the same role would be disabled i.e no duplication. Whether something has changed, or whether there is a difference between normal and beta software, I dont know. But the above is how he explained things (using his setup as an example) to me.

My experience is a lot of the time Dealers don’t know the full potential or limitations of the equipment – especially new releases.

Then again, it may be just a bug or the lack of development?

Then again, it may be that Room Sense feels some extra help us needed? Who knows? I think it can be infuriating to many but there are solutions to an extent where you can drop or boost the the channel output to a min/max of the driver if that is what you feel is good. A lot of the time, many customers only discover what can/cannot be changed several weeks into ownership…..and then, many software updates!

Im guessing, but I assume the Theatre is “helping out” the BL3s?

I don’t have any height satellite speakers (as yet) and the Theatre is firing its height speakers, but the front and L/R firing are not contributing just like yours.

[NQVHNWI]

Dont have BL28s, myself, but Im guessing you first need to pair the BL28s together in the BeoApp before the Theatre.

Then add the PL cable from the “master” to the Theatre (assuming you daisy-chain to the Slave BL28). You can also connect them via WISA if you wish?

[NQVHNWI]

My main loudspeakers are Beolab 90s and I also use Beolab 3s daily.

Hello everybody, I ordered BS Theater with a pair of BL28. I will use wired PL and Ethernet to BL28. In which order should I setup my system? BL28 first then BSTH or opposite?

Good question and it depends on how you use them. I would imagine that the the BL28 and Theatre integrate together anyway for music and video. As Ive mentioned previously with my BL90s (a couple of generations behind the BL28s in terms of integration) is you set your loudspeakers up first as a standalone.

Once done, set the Theatre up as Centre only, as a Surround system (Theatre/BL28) and as BL28 on its own (within the Theatre system) using the listening positions control and room-sense.

This way, I guess that if you want to use BL28 on its own with its integrated sound (or injected 3rd party sound) for music, you can do without troubling the Theatre. If your sources come via the Theatre (DNLA/Radio/Video etc..), you can chose the sound playback based on the source. For example:-

1. If I want to critically listen to music (Qobuz or my ripped library via my Auralic) I start the BL90s directly via Auralic signal trigger.
2. If I watch Live TV, the source selection, plays Centre only, Custom sound mode
3. If I listen to ripped music (lower quality) with LG Media player (via the Theatre), triggers BL90 wide mode, music sound mode.
4. If I watch Kaleidascope video (hi-Res), Bl90/BL3/Theatre triggers in movie mode

Found this link,

Clearly says C9 is not supported and is considered a third party screen. Surprised your Dealer did not inform you?

check out my other posts on using Listening Positions running room sense separately for centre, surround and BL90 fronts, copying the BL90 to have narrow, wide, omni presets

The BeoApp on the TV just tells me to finish the setup inside the B&O app on the iPhone.

Hi, Sorry if this comes across as patronising but Im just trying to nut-out your problem in my head. Sorry if Im being a little circular.

There are two Apps required:-

1. The LG (LG B&O App – which is loaded from LG and resides in the TV) and
2. The BeoApp which is from B&O and is on you iPad or Android phone

I assume you have these steps? The LG Panel indicates a loaded App and the LG Home Dashboard App?

I assume you have internet connected to the Theatre? Fully close your mobile device Beoapp.

Reset the Sound bar by pressing << and >> together for 8 seconds.

Dont restart the BeoApp in your mobile device until the TV and Theatre have rebooted and LEDs have stopped blinking.

The BeoApp should take you through a number of steps (buttons are pictures).

1. Press the button picture to load the LG Remote control App (this is done, but clears the button away)
2. Press pair a BR1 remote. The Theatre should auto-find and pair the BR1
3. If you have some control now, you should be up and running. Finish the Theatre setup on your mobile device.

With respect to your Dealer, I would get him involved. He made himself party to you and the Theatre the moment you sent him money and he ordered your equipment. Territory or not. He cannot be reluctant and needs to support you and he can call, email and help……rather than Beoworlders doing his job.

You paid a good deal of hard-earned cash for a flagship product. It should be perfect – including it working as well as it can for the C9 panel. Additionally, if the C9 Panel is completely non-functional with the Theatre, he should have warned you about it being non-compatible before ordering.
