hi,
this subject was one of the big surprises for me after installing my first b&o system a few years ago. i simply had not considered that b&o were transmitting an sd signal with the rf modulator. it surprises me still. i suppose that beonet will solve this problem, but it seems to me that b&o should be able to retransmit a hd signal with existing hardware.
i have understood that the bv7 can transmit a sd signal down the rf link from a bluray source. so it seemed logical that they might offer this possibility for external hd sources. tant pis...
i have found the cm-388. it takes a hdmi input and downgrades it to a sd signal as well as providing a bypass of the original hdmi signal. this looks good as, if i have understood, the bv7 does accpet a sd and hd signal from the same source. this should allow one to watch a hd source on the bv7 in hd and watch the same source in sd on link room tv (but maybe not at the same time...).
my system is still a work in progress. any comments or information always welcome and appreciated !
