Was wondering if any fellow enthusiasts could give me some assistance?

I would like to connect an audio source (iPod) directly to Beosystem 3. I have connected to Av4 & in the 'connections' menu registered the socket as 'unknown STB'.

How do I then select & listen to the source?

Any help would be much appreciated!

 

Kind Regards

Julian

Did you make av4 a 'source'?

Can you send a picture of the menu selection and connection panel?

And finally the settings for 'AV4'. A PS3, Apple tv & Blu-Ray are connected to the three HDMI sockets. An iPod is connected to the L & R phono connections in the 'AV4' panel.

I think the problem is with the calling it v.mem.

The sys3 looks for a video input on it.

Try the 3 way 3.5mm plug with the video output as well as the rca for audio and see if that would do it.

Mjmedlo,

Success! Thank you very much for your help & suggestions, the yellow phono plug together with a re-boot solved the problem & it's now working well.  

Best wishes for the new year,

Kind Regards
