I have connected my original apple dock to Camera connection of my BV3-32. The Beo5 does all the job pressing one button. Since Keith created the xml file for this item I can control it with my Beo5. If you have a Beo5 you can download this file of the Beoworld site.

Some Beovision also have a Camera connection which can be used to connect external equipment.

hi phil,

i currently have a ps3 in the master tv scart, but i don't remember if there is a spare, if not then i'm sure i can move the ps3 elsewhere or connect it up to the s-video or something. if the ipod does go into the scart is there likely to be any chance that i'll be able to have some control via the beo4 if i use something like the ridax ?

thanks

steve

hi jason,

i've had the 2300 for ages now and to be honest using cd's less and less (hence the need for connecting the ipod) so don't really want to change it, i'm sure there must be a way and if there is i'm sure someone on here will know, they've never let me down before !!

I have the same problem as you. I have been told by B&O and by Lifestyle A/V that there is no way around it, other than upgrading your 2300 to a product with built in masterlink. I'd be interested to know if there is another solution...

hi,

i would be grateful if someone could possibly help.

i'd like to know the best way of connecting an ipod touch to my current setup, basically i have an avant along with an av9000, a 2300 and various other bits like a beolab 2000, mx4000 etc, i thought i would use the aux on the 2300 but that is currently being used by the masterlink converter and therefore i'm not sure on how i should be connecting it up, e.g. should i be using some kind of aux splitter or something ?, also is it best to include a product like the ridax-dock ?

thanks in advance
