[quote user="Vienna"] [quote user="beojeff"] However, it would be nice to still have the option of playing CDs on my BeoCenter 2 on the rare occasion that I might need to. [/quote] Try this: pressing "DVD" starts a CD with OSD on your TV pressing "LIST" and selecting "AV" + "DVD" should start

Indeed, the U.S. Avant is very different from the Avant used in the rest of the world. Early models of the U.S. Avant are plagued with a faulty component input. If you're using the component connection, that could be the problem. There is a kit for a serviceman to fix this, but I understand it to be rather costly. There are two typical symptoms

I, too, recently purchased a newer-model Samsung BD player and encountered this same issue. I'm wondering if others have been encountering this problem and if they've gotten any feedback from B&O tech support. I can't imagine what could be different about the Samsung component connection that makes it incompatible with the BeoSystem

I think you're going to have some problems. I was told when the Beomaster 5 was released that there was no way to control it (without a BeoSound 5) via a BeoSystem 1. B&O advised that they were working on a solution to use an external IR control. That was over a year ago. It's my understanding that they still haven't provided a solution

Just an update: I've disconnected the ML cable from the BeoCenter 2 and made the BeoSound 5 the new audio master. After re-assigning the n.music to the "CD" button and the n.radio to the "RADIO" button via the BeoSound 5 I am now able to MUCH more easily call up my BeoSound music using beo4 remotes throughout my home. This simple

[quote user="Puncher"] Steve Job's advice on the "really coolly engineered" antenna problems - "don't hold it that way"! Either that or buy a £25 elastic band to wrap around it! Absolutely incredible/laughable. Only Apple could release something like this and seemingly get away with it - any other company

[quote user="PhilLondon"] You can effectively only have one N.MUSIC server in the house. Could you describe your setup... which element (TV, audio) you've got in which room... P. [/quote] The latest update to the BeoSound 5 now allows multiple BeoMaster 5 / BeoSound 5 units to be connected to the ML in a home. I'm not sure how this

[quote user="PhilLondon"] You can effectively only have one N.MUSIC server in the house. Could you describe your setup... which element (TV, audio) you've got in which room... P. [/quote] I was hoping that maybe the BeoSound 5 would "free up" the N.MUSIC command to be used by the BeoPort if the BeoSound 5 N.MUSIC was re-assigned

[quote user="jk1002"] My understanding was that the options would not matter when it comes to calling up a core function like CD or Radio through the Beo4. It is sort of hardwired - that is the beauty about the Beo 5 since it is more flexible in this regards. [/quote] JK- With the BeoSound 5 there is the capability of re-assigning n.music

I just tried using LinkPlayer in a setup that has a BeoSound 5 and had no success distributing the iTunes music through the MasterLink. I had made my BeoSound 5 the Audio Master and programmed it to use the "CD" Beo4 button for it's own N.Music. It seems the BeoSound 5 will still not allow a MasterLink control of LinkPlayer using either
