In my bedroom I have a BeoVision 10 '46 installed and a BeoLink passive with IR eye and loudspeakers connected to it. All is connected with each other via MasterLink.

What I want is to be able to listen to music from the audio master in the living room over the speaker one hand and also be able to have the sound of the bedroom television over the loudspeakers. So I've set both devices in the bedroom to option 5. 

But it seems I can only have music from the living room over the speaker, no television sound. Any suggested what I'm doing wrong? Is what I want possible at all with the current setup?

Sorry, but this is not possible. Beolink passive can only pick up the sound from the master, not from link TV.

Why do you want 2 (!) Linkroom products there.

Why not just connect the BL Passive as an amp for the speaker, you already have connected to it.

Only thing you need is a PowerLink cable from the tv to the BL Passive. And you would not need the ir-eye anymore.

This way you can easily have either sound (through the internel and/or the external speakers) from the master room or from the tv itself.

There is a tv - and there is a BV

Thanks for that info. Disappointing though, I had hoped the BeoLink passive would behave just like a BeoSound with ML.

I would be fine with just using the TV as link product, however, even in option 6, it doesn't play link radio from the living room.

Do you have another BV in yor setup?

What is your audiomaster?

Assuming you have listed all devices in your ML system try:

audiomaster livingroom A.OPT 2

videomaster bedroom BV10 V.OPT 1

BL passive bedroom L.OPT 5

to get BV10 sound to BL passive press AV-TV (DTV, DVD....)

hope this helps

There is a BV11 in the setup and a BeoSound/Master 5 (option 2) in the setup. Both in the living room. In the study there's also a BeoSound 3000 in option 6. 

Since I already have another VideoMaster in the setup, I guess I cannot put the bedroom BV10 in option 1?

Correct - unfortunately...

Is your BV11 connected to ML? Using an NL-ML converter?

If so, why did you set your BS5 to A.OPT 2?

The BV11 is indeed connected with an NL-ML convertor.

I found out why the tv didn't play radio in option 6, that was the speaker configuration which was wrongly set up. So now I can play with link x something over the TV and without link something over the speakers, but not at the same time, unless I connect the amp by means of PowerLink to the TV, but then I lose the function of the IR-eye.
