Hi there,

I am new too. Just waiting for my red 7-32 in Hong Kong. Would DVI be sufficient for future HD TV upgrade?

Hi all!
I'm quite new into the B&O's Lcd & Plasmas and I'm a little confused. Still have an old LX2500 but want a new and want to wait until the new 7-40 MkIII. But I wonder what "based on BS3" means. Do I have to buy more than the 7-40 to use it? Please help me as I if have to spend more money I might buy the "old" MKII before the new price.
All the best to you all!

Based on BS3 means that the processor used is the Beosystem 3 that is also used in the Beovision 9. In the UK, the price is not going up so wait for the new model as it will make a big difference and it will have a veritable mass of connections!

Whilst no one knows the exact spec yet you can be assured that the MK111 will be the largest improvement in panel electronics yet by B&O for LCD I would not buy the previous version unless its cheap!

Just looking at the picture again, has AV4 disappeared, or is AV4 the HDMI inputs

AV4 is the side input (S-Video).

FSv2:
also where are the 4 audio inputs that are on the MKII

Each AV input has a digital audio in (SPDIF). HDMI sockets can be assigned to one of the AV.

You can't convert from DVI-D to VGA or visa-versa, but you can convert from DVI-D to HDMI and visa versa, and hence a VGA input actually makes a lot of sense, as some things like the XBox 360 will only connect via VGA or Component.

Very nice to see the addition of (long overdue) HDMI ports. Also find it a bit strange they added a VGA input but dropped the DVI input, with most PC's (or even the Mac Mini) having DVI output I would of thought DVI would stay, and considering you can't do HDCP over the VGA, it means connecting a PC to the BV7 you now need a DVI->HDMI converter.

Just looking at the picture again, has AV4 disappeared, or is AV4 the HDMI inputs, also where are the 4 audio inputs that are on the MKII - or is just part of the picture is missing?

Gerd:
The next BV7 will be 40-MKIII. And here is what the EU-backpanel will look like

Looking good. However, I'm confused and no-one seems to be able to answer this:

What about the BV7-32? We know that an EU version of the HDMI-based BV7-40 is forthcoming. However, surely the BV7-32 isn't going to remain with a single DVI socket? That would be madness. No-one seems to know, not even the dealers. They know a revised BV7-40 is forthcoming (August/September for the UK), but have heard nothing about an upgraded BV7-32.

It's from the new (preliminary) BeoSystem 3 installation guide
