hi there

this is a set up i looked at and discovered that the internal IR switches off when you use an external one

is there no Y cable to connect 2 IR receivers to the TV

that woudl be a lovely solution, (except when you want all speakers on in a link senario)

"Ok, thanks, but what about 7-2 in one room, and 7-4 in another? "

No problem. You can assign two different center speakers.

"Can I use the full surrond setup with the projector?"

Yes. Should be possible. If I remember correctly you can connect and assign up to 12 speakers. So even two complete different 5.1 setups should be possible.

"And isn't it possible to connect an IR-eye from the cinemaroom to the livingroom?"

Yes. You can connect an external IR eye, but the internal eye will be automatically disconnected.

There is a lot of information in the BS3 service manual - available here on the PRODUCTS site.

"Is it possible to have a BV7-40 in one room, and have a projector in another room, and use the cinemafunction."

Yes. But you can`t control the system from 2nd room, because there is just one IR eye.

"Thinking of having av bv7-40 with 7-2 in one room, and projector, BL9, BL7-4 and BL3 in another. Is it possible to use the tv and the proector at the same time, with different sources?"

No. FORMAT 0 (or Cinema button on Beo5) toggles beteween TV- and Cinema mode.

"Also to different soundsetup at the same time?"

No. It also switches between the two sound setups.

This was discussed some time ago also in Scandinavian Forum - if I remember correctly.

Is it possible to have a BV7-40 in one room, and have a projector in another room, and use the cinemafunction. Thinking of having av bv7-40 with 7-2 in one room, and projector, BL9, BL7-4 and BL3 in another. Is it possible to use the tv and the proector at the same time, with different sources? Also to different soundsetup at the same time?
