Ok, no integration more than BLC.

What I can't do (and I've double-checked that everything is good on the ATV settings) is wake up my BV8 with the ATV/ATV Remote/Airplay. Completely impossible. I can control the BV8 volume with the ATV remote but that's all.

diisign.com

Madskp:

Is the TV Source in use on your BV8? TV is the only B&O IR command the Apple remote sends appart from volume. So for this to work optimal you have to select TV as the source button for the HDMI port the Apple TV is connected to.

I moved my ATV from DVD to TV and disabled all aerial inputs. Purely coincidentally in the past week, however this probably contributed to my solution.

Hiort:

It seems that Sonos users experience similar problems:

https://en.community.sonos.com/troubleshooting-228999/trouble-adding-play-ones-to-home-app-ios-6809384

So the thread poses two solutions both that worked for multiple people:

1/ check you are adding via a user whose iCloud account was the original one to set your HomeKit environment up,

2/ AND/OR

I have tried power down both phone and Sonos One. Still no joy. The Sonos One never appears as a device when i try to add it within the HomeKit add accessories section ...

All this only worked after I updated to iOS 11.4.1

Sounds like try step 2 ... not a reboot but a power off and on of the iPhone

I had problems in part because of my Bermuda Triangle of TimeCapsule WAPs, so I need to make sure was connected to the right speed network, and also ideally the same node for the setup process.

Once setup I could live with the β€œconnecting ...” pauses come timeouts

I have made a new thread regarding the IR control functions of the Apple TV and Beovisions and also mentioned the Airplay functionality and quirks. https://archivedforum2.beoworld.org/forums/p/34673/256188.aspx#256188

Any idea when the Airplay 2 update will be out? My B&O dealer mentioned that it was supposed to be out in August/September but I havent seen anything yet.

Devices on the Beta track received a new update of firmware the other day.

Performance have improved a lot, but I still see problems with sound out of sync.

So, they appear to have some work to do still.

I got those updates too (Essence & Core).

I have not noticed any change: neither +ive nor -ive.

Are the problem between ATV’s on a BeoVision and the pure audio devices (AP2 compatible)?

MM

There is a tv - and there is a BV

MM - I would be happy to answer the question if I had some context ... were you asking me ? What statement(s) prompted the question ?

And do you include Eclipse & Core as pure audio ?

The problems I see is that devices are (sometimes) slightly out of sync.

Earlier issues I experienced, like shaky volume control and devices not playing after being selected, appear to be fixed.

Just don’t think that B&O is the only one with this kind of problems:
