    Beoport - How are images transfered to the Beovision?

    I am thinking about using a Beoport to get my PC music into the B&O Setup.

    If I want to control the Beoplayer from the main room - assuming the Beoport is in a linkroom - do I need more than the masterlink connection from the Beoport?

    In other words: do I need to connect my Beovision in any way to the Beoport (using a tv tuner card?) ?

    Thanks for you support!

    Re: Beoport - How are images transfered to the Beovision?

    The BeoPort connects to your computer's audio output and USB. You then run a single MasterLink connection from the BeoPort to your BeoCenter/Sound. The BeoVision itself won't be able to drive the BeoPort without a BeoSound or BeoCenter to go with it.

    Unless you're thinking of getting a BeoSound or BeoCenter, the AppleTV + iTunes route may be a path to look at. You can drive it with your B&O remote as well, plus you can get photos and movies onto your BeoVision.

    Or, your third option is to wait and see what the supposed 'BeoMaster 5' due later this year is going to be like. It sounds very interesting from what I've heard...

    Thanks Alex for the help. So, I got a Beosound Ouverture, but as I remember this one is not N.Music capable, right?

    I might want to look at the apple solution (using an x-box right now as a media player).

    Thanks again!

    I'm pretty sure that the Ouverture doesn't support N.Music, sorry...
