&lt;p&gt;LOL&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are of course correct. A customer meddling with the settings wouldn&amp;#39;t be covered by Bang &amp;amp; Olufsens warranty BUT, that&amp;#39;s where customer service comes in. I would fully expect the local dealer to offer whatever support was required.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Opman&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Surely not......and don&amp;#39;t call me Surely ;-) &amp;nbsp;I think the wisdom and kindness expressed by BeoWorlders is amazing. &amp;nbsp;This TV is under warranty, the owner paid for that warranty and support from a dealer and national tech support, and there is specification for that screen. &amp;nbsp;That&amp;#39;s why &lt;span style="text-decoration:underline;"&gt;they&lt;/span&gt; exist.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: BV8-40 owners please help</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/313828.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 10 Feb 2011 09:16:12 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:313828</guid><dc:creator>Opman</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/313828.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=313828</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/Themes/beotheme1/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;symmes:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If all else fails, is it possible to call your dealer and ask for support? &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
