tdinham: 1) Will what I propose work with the above setup
2) I have been told I need to change the Overture for a 3000 or 3200 to get NRadio etc to work with the Beomedia. On the other hand I have been told I do not have to change the Overture. - What is the true position?
3) I have also been told the a Beomedia connected as above will be fine with the slave Beovison 5 but will not show anything on the Avant or the MX4002 - Is this true and why
1) Don't realy know. But I think it should.
2) You need an up to date audio system or a Beocenter 2 for distribution of N.Radio and N.Music. Sorry.
You could navigate the Beomedia from your computer. This way you don't need a new audio master. But you have to control everything from your computer. Your system is better of with a BS3000 or if you like it a BS4 (prefered in your situation) . And try to get a Beomedia with lots of storage space. Or hook up an additional harddrive.
3) If your Beovision 3 has a coaxial cable running towards the MX4002 it should be o.k.
Let me explain. Our BV7 has 2 coaxial connectors on the back. For input and output of analog TV signals. The output is running towards the MX4002 in the bedroom. In the same system a digital TV box, BS3200, Beoport, Mac Mini and HDR1 are operational. All video and audio can be controlled at the MX4002; radio, TV, DTV, V.Tape (=HDR1), V.Mem (BS3200), DVD, CD
