Strange - when I bought hte 7-40 ( march this year ) the dealer said that the X-box could NOT be included in the STB-list ? I will give him a call monday morning and ask him to check once again with Denmark.

Well, i had it in my old tv before the new one arrived, so it can be done, i don't have an XBOX, but just in case :) The only difference is that PS3 and XBox is "Media" devices, and not ordinary STB boxes.

However my dealer had no problems what so ever with including PS3 and XBox to my tv.

Thanks both of you. Weebyx, are you sure that the Xbox can be included in the STB list ? Does that include the old X-box as well ?

Yes, there is a "Microsoft XBox" in the settop box list the dealer has, it does'nt mention if it is the new or old one. But i bet thr IR-Codes are pretty much the same.

I don't know how it works for XBox, but with my PS3 i need a Nyko remote as receiver for the PS3, since the PS3 itself uses bluetooth.

I have a old X-box that I would like to hide and control with my Beo 5. If I buy another IR-cable and connect to my 7-40, does it let through the IR-signal from the Beo 5 "unconverted" or does the 7-40 convert my signal before it sends it through the STB-cable ?

It is converted to x-box ir codes, if you have you dealer update your STB list to include "Microsoft XBox".

As far as I know the IR signal will be converted and passes the PUC, because the Beovision just accepts Beo (455 kHz) signals. So no pass though the BV7-40. But check if the Xbox is on the PUC list...(?)
