Hi Again Carl Henrik

I think 'extended' simply keeps the information display on, as opposed to displaying for a short period and then disappearing?

My display is already set to 'extended' as opposed to 'default'

Hi David,

Ah maybe I was a bit unclear with what I meant. I don't mean you to change the language, what I mean is that under Options, there is an option to allow extended characters (or something to that effect), and this should allow the BC2 to display foreign signs, whilst still keeping all the menus in your preferred language.

Hi David,

I seem to remember on my own BC2 using the Options menu to have the centre display special characters, such as Danish, German, French etc. (I have it set to Swedish which takes care of some of the characters, such as Agnetha Fältskog... ).

I hope this is of some help!

Beocentre 2- displaying LOAD DISC when playing NMUSIC/NRADIO and multi language display question!

Comrades,

Hello. Some months ago I posted the following:

Happy New Year Comrades

I have a beocentre 2 that has given many years of trouble free service. It is connected to a beoport and beovision 8.

Beoport is used to play NMUSIC and NRADIO and ive had at least a year of trouble free use.

Over the last week, when I turn the system on, using NRADIO or NMUSIC, the beocentre 2 display says 'load disc'. It still plays NRADIO or NMUSIC, but no display, other than 'load disc'. I can still scroll through playlists etc. If I then change function from NRADIO to NMUSIC, the correct display then appears on the Beocenter 2. The same occurs if i start with NMUSIC and switch to NRADIO.

I have not changed any software or version of itunes.

I did switch off power to beocentre 2 and beoport to see if that would fix the problem- it didnt. I also re loaded BM LINK, though im not sure that this is the issue.

My hunch is a problem with beocenter 2.

I called B&O, they said, 'NO Idea', call service, which i have and will wait for them to get back to me

Any suggestions dear people?

I didn't really get an answer.... and somehow the problem went away and it mysteriously fixed itself for several months... Yesterday, it started doing the above again...Is there a fix??

I also have a second question:

When track names/artists are displayed on the beocentre 2 via itunes and it contains a letter not found in the english alphabet, e.g Agnetha Fältskog, or Édith Piaf's Ça Fait Drôle it wont display and simply will say artist or track unknown, even if spelt correctly in itunes. Is there a way the beocentre 2 can be set to recognise multi languages/alphabets. A small issue, but annoying all the same!

Any advice appreciated

David
