Hi
I have the opportunity to acquire a BV11-40 tv, it only has HDMI sockets.
I have a Beocenter 2 which connects via a scart plug or RCa, anyone any suggestions how to effect a connection, do B&O produce a 'box' etc?
Thank you to our Sponsors
Connecting BC2 to BV 11-40 tv

I think the BV11 also has a mini-AV socket, hence you could use one of the following cables (probably 'D'): (taken from Beolink Handbook v1-9 page 128 - click to expand)

Guy is correct in this.
C will also work in combination with a Male-Male scart cable if you need more lenght.
In the setup menu for the AV input Beocenter 2 can be choosen the same way a PUC code is selected. Only difference is here you dont need an IR blaster as the controls happens via the scart adapter

Another alternative if you dont need video signals from the BC2 to the BV11 BC2 and/or if you want the audio from the BC2 to be available for other B&O NL speakers/TV’s is a Beolink Converter NL/ML. But that might be overkill for what you want.

Question for those who have tried connecting the BC2 to a BV11 this way?
I suppose, that you’d only get the sound from a DVD or a CD this way - the sound from the radiotuner can not be distributed through the scart/mini socket, or???

But that must be true for CD playback as well.
Nice CD player then…..who watches DVD’s nowadays?
P.S.
Will be interesting to know if it turns on the BV11, when one starts playback manually on the BC2?

As far as I remember, it is just like with the DVD players in the BV7’s…….you use the DVD command and the player detects which kind of disc is put in (like any other DVD player does) and starts playback.
Would be nice however, to have it confirmed!
