    Beovision 7 Mark 3 and a DVD2 - hmmmmmmmm

    Ok so I'm trying to attach a DVD2 to a Mark 3 BV7 (with an internal DVD).

    DVD2 is attached to AV1 via HDMI and Audio is via SP-DFI to AV1.

    I've added the DVD2 to the Beo4 so I can get to it using LIST.

    Pressing DVD2 on the Beo4 gets to the DVD2 connection, although it's now asking me for time & date but I can't use the remote to get to change it! :-(

    I can see the DVD screen behind the time/date question but haven't been able to test the sound etc.

    Do I also need to connect the Scart to provide more control?

    Cheers

    If it is the same as HDR2, then it comunicates channals and other stuf via the SCART cable.

    But then again - the HDR2 have no HDMI connection.

    Added a scart lead and could get past the time/date step.

    Sounds and Video now seem to work ok.

    Testing against the internal DVD shows there is no / very little difference.

    I'm guessing (as I don't know) that neither players do upscaling to HD? or am I missing the whole point! lol

    Ditch the DVD2 and by a PVR that is Beo4 controllable. This way you can use the internal DVD player and still have hard drive capabilities that actually work!!
