Hi all,

I am the proud owner of a BeoVision Avant (VHS) and a BeoSound Ouverture, both about 10 years old. I have now connected them for the very first time with a MasterLink cable, in order to be able to listen to movies through the loudspeakers that are connected to my Ouverture.

This works perfectly when I watch to a movie on TV: I press AV+TV on my Beo4, and get the TV sound through my Ouverture.

However, when I am watching a DVD from my externally connected non-B&O DVD player (connected via SCART), this does not work. When I press AV+TV on my Beo4, I still get the TV sound (and NOT the sound from my DVD) on my Ouverture.

I ASSUME that this might work when pressing AV+DVD on the Beo4, but my Beo4 does NOT have a DVD button. Plus I don't know whether this would help...

Any hints?

Thanks in advance

Hi Christof.
If I had the same set-up, I would have the speakers connected to the Avant. Which speakers are you using?
On an older Beo4, look in your 'list' for CDV, it is the equivalent of DVD. I don't think you can do AV CDV though.

Hi Andy and others,

yes, if I had a surround module in my Avant, I would connect the speakers to it ;-(

Yes, I switch to the DVD player by selecting CDV on my Beo4, but then I can not listen to the sound through my Ouverture. Do you think a newer Beo4 (with DVD button) would fix this?

Thanks

Dosen't this have something to do with the option setting of the Ouverture?

The fact that you can play the sound of the tv through the ouverture means you are nearly there. If you wish pm me and I will give you my mobile and I can talk you through, its probably easier that way!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, PM sent - did it come through?

Christof. You can tell if a person is online, if there are two colourful little men next to his name.

Hi Didole PM hasn't come through
