    Beo4 and tivo

    Hi guys,

    New here...

     

    Just wondering if it is possible to use Beo4 and tivo together. I need a new universal remote and wasn't sure if it was compatible.

     

    Any thoughts?

    You could go a number of ways:

    - Get a universal remote like a Logitech Harmony which purportedly supports Bang & Olufsen systems as well as a TiVo, along with lots of other devices.

    - Get a code translation device like the Lintronic -238 unit, which enables one to use a B&O Beo4 remote to control your B&O equipment and the TiVo.

    - Get a Beo5 remote, provided that you can get your local store to add TiVo support for you. Support might also be available in a Beosystem 1 or 3. Again, consult your dealer.

    If you don't mind using a non-B&O remote, the Harmony is probably the path of least resistance. Logitech has done a lot of work collecting remote codes for all kinds of devices. The cost of the remote is less than the Lintronic unit. But, there is nothing like using a B&O remote - if this is the case for you, the Lintronic solution is for you.
