The LX manual is on the B&O site but doesn't cover the 5500 version. It's available on the Beoworld site to members.

If you assign a scart to CDV compact disc video (DVD) press shift>sat to access. Vtape 2 it will be shift>vtape. Sat and vtape have their own source buttons.

hello beoforum!

nice to see a very structured and clean forum. :) didnt take me long to find this thread. and i have the same problem as the topic say.

Recently got a beovision lx5500 and a beolink 1000 from a freind that has upgraded his beo system. so i was very happy, and this christmas i got a ps3...

So: i tried the combination,(shift), (text) and found the menu. seem to be a switch between the to av-inputs.

but with no succes.

i select the 1 input, and press play, to store. but nothing happens... there shouldn't be any difrences between av1 or av2 right?

anyhow, im not familiar to old eq like this...and actually im not used to pay for a manual this old.

I have never owned any Beo prodocts before, dont really know anything about the "standard" functions of either the tv set or the remote..

could somebody refer me to a manual somwhere thats free or help me with this...?

i mean i like the tv! the sound is great and picturecontrols are very good. but with no manual it's like rolling a dice..

maatsi:

the one which game with the Playstation doesn't have all the pins on the scart end

That should not make any difference, the one that came with my PS2 was the same. That works perfectly with my MX5500, I have it assigned as VCD. So that is works with the DVD button on my Beo4.

You must dedicate the scart inputs to a source. Use [SHIFT] [TEXT] to open the meny. Use the arrows on the remote to change the inputs. Store with [PLAY]. If you choose [CDV] use [SHIFT] [CD] to acces the source.

Just registered to this forum due to the reason mentioned in the subject. I have Beolink 1000 Mk 2 remote and two different scart adapters for the PS3, the one which game with the Playstation doesn't have all the pins on the scart end so I bought a second one with all pins. Neither worked (tried on AV1 and AV2) and trust me I have pressed all the buttons on the remote including V.TAPE but to no avail.

Is there anything I still could do to get the MX to recognize the PS3?

BR, Timo
