Beoremote 1 question

I was going to buy another BR1 but dealer only had the version with the Netflix and Amazon buttons. Is that the only version currently available? Or is the 4 my button version still available?

Certainly - that is the current one.

The one, that is sold with the tv’s etc.

I suppose, that the dealer wants to get rid of the old stuff.

That would have to be very cheap, if I were to buy one.

The ones for sale as separate units don't have these ugly buttons. Only those supplied with recent tvs have those buttons. 

I guess your dealer swapped them when selling fancy $$$ tvs to customers who dislike such buttons. It is a shame though that he now wants to sell you such a remote as 'new'. You can't even buy them officially with those buttons as a separate unit. 

Thanks!  That is what I thought.  I had gone through the new feature on the B and O web page where a chat screen pops up while looking at a product and connects with a dealer to answer questions or make a purchase. I will contact another dealer directly.

I actually would have liked to be able to use the Netflix and Amazon buttons as triggers for macros via BLGW to access Netflix and Amazon Prime Video on my UHD player connected to my BeoSystem 4. However, it appears that they send out no IR command when the BeoRemote One is in BeoVision mode. I used the BLGW to monitor any commands sent from those two buttons, and nothing was captured. That's a shame. It would have been so easy for B&O to have programmed them with CONTROL commands in IR mode in addition to the commands in BT mode.

The only reason there’s a version with Amazon and Netflix buttons is due to licensing, we have to legally have one on show on the showroom. You, the customer get to choose exactly which version you want when you order a TV.
