    BV8-40 owners please help

    Reply Contact

    Hi all, 

    I been messing around in some settings which I probably shouldn't have touched in the first place...

    My TV picture is rather dark... will a friendly BV8-40 owner please check their TV setting in the following menu...

    Press:  Menu / 0 0 GO / Monitor / Picture adjustments / Picture adjustments / Adaptive Backlight

    BL High              ???
    BL Low               ???
    PW Debug          ???
    Direct BL Adj      ???

    Regards
    Claus 

    I was the second place winner on the BeoWorld May 2009 Prize Draw!

    Thanks to BeoWorld for a great site!

    Thank you Stan and Shaun! Big Smile

    My TV settings are similar to Shauns. So maybe this isn't the problem!?

    Yes, I actually have been taking pictures everytime I've mess around, but forgot it just this once. Wink UPS!!!

    If all else fails, it is possible to do a reset to default and start again.

    If all else fails, is it possible to call your dealer and ask for support?

    Surely not......and don't call me Surely ;-)  I think the wisdom and kindness expressed by BeoWorlders is amazing.  This TV is under warranty, the owner paid for that warranty and support from a dealer and national tech support, and there is specification for that screen.  That's why they exist.

    LOL

    You are of course correct. A customer meddling with the settings wouldn't be covered by Bang & Olufsens warranty BUT, that's where customer service comes in. I would fully expect the local dealer to offer whatever support was required.
