Hi Guy,

One of the pictures shows part Nr 1638, with is Beolink Active.

This item was intended to create a link room (with addiditon of a pair of active speakers).

An IR eye is necessary for remote control.

More pictures there https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/o-bang-olufsen-type-1638-beolink-250461712

I do not know what the 2 other pictures refer to.

Kind regards,

Yann.

Hi,

Beoplayer works fine on a Windows 10 64 bits PC.

The installed version is 5.04.

Hello,

Beoplayer works on W10 in compatability mode.

I’m not sure that Beolink PC2 driver can be installed on W10.

Anyway it’s now a bit useless, apart if you with to listen to your B&O sources on your PC.

I never had a problem with ripped CDs.

Are you sure that your ripping parameters are OK as Beoplayer does not read all formats?

Kind regards,

Yann.

Rob,

You have a PM.

Yann.

Hi Keith,

All is OK now, thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Yann.

Hi,

Did you add your grey M5 in your B&O account?

Just my 2 cents if it can help.

Yann.

Rob,

I found this work-around.

In your TV, you may remap the firestick input to the one used by Blu-Ray key.

Rob,

There is another Beo5/6 sub-forum here: https://archivedforum2.beoworld.org/forums/9.aspx

You can read this topic :

https://archivedforum2.beoworld.org/forums/t/12278.aspx

where I found this table from Keith, Beoworld’s living memory, showing that a 32 bit OS is necessary to use the software with Beo5.

[YannChris]

Rob,

The key is maybe hidden and there is a way to check this:

First StdBy + Goto, then press Edit.

Enter in the zone by tapping its button.

All buttons available appear, whatever they are hidden or not on normal use.

You can navigate between keys and screens as normal.

If you see the V-Aux key, navigate to it with the keyboard’s arrows , press Go and choose  “Show”.

Hope it helps.

Yann.

The software was reserved to dealers.

Other members may help you to get it, the problem is to have the version which suits with your Beo5.

I suggest that you post a picture of the “informations” screen of the remote (StdBy+Go, go to Info then press Go).

Yann.

Hi Rob,

The best solution is to use the Configuration Tool software.

You should first switch to the archived forum 2007-2012, there is a dedicated sub-forum very well documented:

https://archivedforum.beoworld.org/forums/48.aspx

Be aware that Beo5 software version, Configuration Tool version and Windows version especially 32/64 bits) must be aligned.

Kind regards,

Yann.

Thank you Martin.

Have a great week-end.

Yann

[YannChris]

Sure 🙂

[YannChris]

Geoff,

Sure, but how to listen to it?

Yann.

[YannChris]

Hi Eldrup and Martin,

Thank you for this lovely “ritornello”.

A bit kitsch for everyday listening but so fresh anyway.

Yann.

[YannChris]

Congratulations 🙂

Your enthousiasm remind me 2006 christmas, when 2 BL5 arrived at home.

Enjoy your BL5s, they are fabulous speakers either for music and video.

Kind regards,

Yann.

Bonjour Christophe,

J’ai répondu à ton message sur le bon coin.

“Méthodes de mesure” est un petit (18 pages) manuel destiné aux techniciens.

Il décrit des procédures de test génériques pour amplificateurs et tuners FM.

C’est théorique mais intéressant.  

Bon week-end,

Yann.

Looking to the pictures of B&O’s website, I am rather mixed on the floor-stand.

Too imposing for my taste, it seems less airy and sophisticated than the Eclipse’s one.

While Eclipse floats in the air, Theater seems to be painfully extricating itself from the soil.

I agree, that’s a purely personal and subjective feeling which needs to be confronted to the in-the flesh product.

At last and if I read the specifications correctly, it can only control 2 products via the PUCs. It’s unfortunately too short for my current needs.

Hello Mathieu,

Many thanks for your advice.

I do not have the CMD2 anymore, as I sent my Beocenter to be fixed by a professional.

But I still have my 2nd Beocenter’s CDM4 drive.

If you have any clue, I’m interested.

Kind regards,
Yann.

[YannChris]

Thumbs up, Matador!
