Has anyone noticed that if you look at the new beotime on the official site in the moving pictures, the new beotime shows the correct time. Very clever.

BeoTime CAN send the correct IR command to shutdown (even control) the bedroom LC2s manually... but then, they don't include this feature as a "timer" option (alarm or sleep) in the software... why?!?!?

Really too bad !

Well, when I read the guide, it tells you how to control the lights, but not how to do it at a certain time. ALARM SOURCE: TV DTV V.MEM DVD RADIO CD A.MEM DTV2 N.RADIO N.MUSIC V.AUX L-TV L-DTV L-V.MEM L-DVD L-RADIO L-CD L-A.MEM L-DTV2 L-N.RA L-N.MUS L-V.AUX NONE

You're right. That's too bad. Although it will be interesting to see what can be accomplished using Masterlink gateway or Lintronic to translate the Beotime alarm trigger into macro commands throughout the house.

Can it switch the light at alarm time or do I have to do it manually?
I asked the same question earlier and the answer seems to be no, unfortunately :-(

Is this true? It looked like from reading the instruction manual that activating a light source as an alarm was an option. That would stink if it couldn't.

does anyone know if the alarm turns on your B&O tv or stereo remotely or via masterlink?

I'm assuming remote,,,as the instruction book doesn't really provide too much info

It is funny you should write that.

On our BeoCom 3, at random intervals, I look at the display clock and it shows "AM" during the afternoon or evening. No matter how many times one fixes it, after an interval usually measured in days it again shows the wrong daypart! This is such an odd software error.

The good news is that the time shown is always correct. One just has to look out the window to figure out if it is morning or afternoon.

Looks good!

Another question: Can I switch the light as an alarm source, too?

Would be nice to automaticaly let this thing switch of the lights in the bedroom for waking up.

I hope the display backlight is not as bad as the one on the Beo 4 cinema and I hope that the software is not as unstable as the Beosound 5!

I've changed the location of the images; are the images displayed correctly ?

To insert (multiple) images into your post, you can upload them to your own page;

- click your membername (top of page)
- click My Files
- use Browse / Add File to upload your file(s)
- select (right click) and copy the file location
- use that file location when you want to insert the image into your post

Not the most easy / practicle way to insert images, but you can upload / insert images.

Other way to insert (a single) image into your post is to use the Options-button:
here you can select and upload an image to be inserted into the post.
