Are there any know issues with new Apple TV 4 when using with BeoVision 11-46? How can we access Siri using Beo Remotes? is it too early for B&O TV users before we take advantage of the new mic controls via remotes?
BeoNut since '75
I'm hoping it doesn't take years for Struer company to make a unified remote that works for all
b&o is never going to make a siri remote. so don't hope to much. Siri is patent by apple so i don't think any brand is able to do that.
Push the red, green, blue, yellow buttons simultaniously and say 'Hey Beo'.

There is a tv - and there is a BV
All we need is a software fix that let apple tv know what i'm talking. Of course no one expects a Siri on B&O products.

What did you then actually mean by this?

we can't use current remotes to play games when connected to Apple TV. so I was hoping for unified remote to catch up & works with modern technology

I guess this is a question of, what a person needs.
I am not for gaming (not even at the ATV), so for me a Beo remote with 'gaming support' is nonsense.
By the way - the AppleTV very much rely on 3rd party controllers for gaming!
The beauty of a Beo remote is, that you can access your sources and your presets (e.g. Speaker Group) directly and you can navigate in the menus in a simple way.
Adding gaming support would - imo - contradict the concept of a Beo4/BeoRemote One and the userinterface of the B&O devices.

You said "The beauty of a Beo remote is, that you can access your sources and your presets" -- apple tv isn't hardcore gaming console (yet), in a way you need a touch enabled remote instead buttons and B&O isn't quite there yet . By introducing the need of additional (simple) controllers defeats the purpose of universal remote that B&O supports today.

elephant: Depends how extreme your definition of gaming is. The Siri Remote's touchpad is fine for the 6 or 7 games we now have on the new ATV.

As I said above - I am not into gaming. Not at all!
That is probably the reason, why I am not interested in the extra remote on the table.
Siri won't work in Denmark (e.g. in danish). No details yet about when that will happen.
So that couldn't be a reason to use the A remote - not that I can imagine me talking to the screen, either.
I'll probably be fine with the PUC-controlling of the few apps, that I'll need/find interesting.
'My' new ATV has not even been ordered yet - but probably will be soon ;-)
I'll report back, if I should change my mind concerning the A remote.
One should never say no - I heard a wise man say.
