Hi,
I recently bought a mk2 Beovision 6-26 with the DVB-T module fitted which works through the SAT button on the remote. The tv has a DVI socket and component input. I have been able to get a picture using PC mode on the remote through the DVI socket but the component video connection does not seem to work when i tried with a DVD player (or at least i wasn't sure which button on the remote turns it on).
I would eventually like to be able to use an apple TV3 with the tv but wondered if anyone has had success with this as there is not HDMI input.
I noticed on amazon there is a device which connects the ATV to a VGA/3.5mm audio output which i believe i could connect to the tv - has anyone tried this or similar? There are other cheaper devices on ebay which seem to do the job but this looks like a neater solution and does not require an additional power supply.

This is how I set up my 7 and I'm really happy with the results, to access DVD on the BEO4 I just press DVD and then "GO".
Let me know if you go with the Kanex how it operates.
