Grettings all...

Just recently acquired a used BeoMedia 1 to add to my setup ( BV4-50, BS1, BL1, BL4000, BL6000)  After looking at the installation guide for software version 3.0 I noticed that it shows the BeoMedia being connected directly to the BeoVision.  I understand that the VGA being connect directly to the BeoMedia being required but shouldn't I be connecting the S-Video and Audio outs into the BS1 under say V.Aux inputs along with the Masterlink going between my BS1 and BM1?

Also curious does anyone in regards to the USB and Firewire connection on the unit, can an extrenal HD be connected via them in order to hold the music, photo, video files?  Or can the BeoMedia access a Network Storage Drive?   The default 250GB is rather small and seeing that the largest ATA Ultra-133 HD available seems to be 500GB there's really not much room for upgrading in order to expand the internal storage.

It has windows underneath so yes a lot can be done.

If you poke around the PC forum, or the general one you may find some instructions.

Thanks for the heads up on the PC forum....forgot all about that one!
