Daughter just reported that the BC2 won't play DVDs - had a look and it will load and actually gets to the front screen and then the BC2 goes into stand by - no issues playing audio sources, either radio or CD. Any ideas?

I think that you may need to set the BC2 in A.OPT2, so that it will respond to audio and video commands from the Beo4.

 

To do this:

Turn to standby/off.

On the Beo4, press the POWER button and LIST together.  Then press LIST until OPTION is shown, press GO (centre button), and then press LIST to show A.OPT.  Then press 2.  The power light on the device may blink to show that it has been accepted.

Thanks for that - it actually suddenly started working again - no idea what that was about - was using it using the control panel rather than the Beo4 - would start and then just switch off - I suspect a failing component but as working again will keep my fingers crossed!

I didn't read your response fully and can see that you are still unable to access the menus.  One thing I did notice in the manual is that you have to have a DVD inserted in order to access the menus - is that what you are doing? 

Also, have you experimented with the DVD Options Menu as mentioned in the manual, particularly the SCART VIDEO OUT setting, which can be CVBS, Y/C or RGB/CVBS?
