Hi I have a mark one BV 7 in the spare bedroom and I was just about to up grade to a new model so I attach an Apple TV to it and when unplugging all the connectors I notice it has a DVI socket does this mean it has the scaler module fitted? But a push on black cover over the component phono's. if so I would be able to use an apple TV via HDMI to DVI
Unfortunately not on a mk1 as it is not HD Ready (the DVI socket was/is for connection to a PC). It was possible to upgrade the mk1 but it is not likely to be cost effective to carry out this upgrade today.
Kind Regards,
Martin.
Hi,
In an old thread someone mentioned using an HDFury, might be worth doing a search for this and see if this would be a solution.

Would an apple TV 1st generation work as it's got component RGB out and its video output is 640x480 in conjunction with a DVI to RGB component cable and connect to the DVI on the back of the set
Thanks for your replies I just had a stoke of luck cash converters in colchester had a mk 1 with both the HD ready module and DVB module fitted which they couldn't test as they had no remote so sold it as spares or repair for £50 so i took a chance got it home it works perfectly.
