kai: Hi Weebyx Could you tell me how you can control the vista media centre with beo4/5. I'm building a movie server, which will use vista media centre, and would like to control it with my Beo4, I did not think it was possible to do this. look forward to your reply Kai Take a look at this thread i wrote some time ago. http://forum.beoworld.org

csmager: I'm very interested in this, and will give it a go at some point. I have a Shuttle PC connected to BeoCenter 6, which I believe has an STB controller. How are you getting on with it? Which controls have you got to work? I'm thinking the most used controls for me are: Power, Menu, Back, Up, Down, Left, Right, OK, Play, Pause, Stop, Skip

Luigi: Look at my BC2: Cool, this is what i need, is yours the MKI or MKII, and what is your SW version ? /Weebyx

Peter : Mine is the same but works well with my Mac and beoport so MP3 CDs are not an issue. The latest software for the Master Unit is 5.20 . 5.10 is the big one though and supports the new acoustic keypad - unfortunately this can only be fitted to Mk 2 BC2s. How much information is displayed on the BC2 screen regarding MP3's from beoport ? /Weebyx

Hi, in my hunt for the my new audiosystem(i sold my BS9000 which i have regret since), i am thinking what to do? Buy a BC2? i actually had one of these in my Avant VHS days, but sold it when i bought the BV7-32 3 years ago. What is the latest SW for the BC2? The one i had could play MP3 cd's, but would only show 8 characters of the DOS filename

bayerische: So is the Beo5 now compatible with third-party products?? Will it work when my non b&O plasma screen is on? (Controlling third-party products) Yes you can control 3rd party products directly via Beo5, i don't understand the last part of your question ? /Weebyx

moxxey: Ok, so the Beosound 5 has reached many (UK) dealers....so what do people think? Has your opinion changed since you've used the device - you're now more keen or less keen to purchase? Well, i was at the VIP arrangement yesterday i Denmark, i a am in 2 minds about this product. 1. It is a totally awesome product in terms of design/quality

propaganda: I will have to try and get the xml file from my dealer. Are there any sample xml files around for study? Well, if you have downloaded the Config tool, and has the latest firmware in your Beo5, and has the XML fil from your dealer, then it is just trial and error :) Here is a small guide. 1. The beoconfig tool saves your XML under the "Clients"
