Hi

I have an Beocenter 6-26 type 9280 and use it together with an Apple TV2. Compared with my BV10-46 with the same option the Apple remote puc is really slow on the BC6-26. Do I use the wrong puc software or is all BC6-26 like this when settopbox is connected? The response is really slow, I can count to three between each push on the remote...

Perhaps someone has an answer?

Hi, I tried to control an apple TV with a lintronic box, but it doesnt do the smooth scrolling etc. I also found the 8-32 STB-C not quite right either. What I did in the end was on the Apple TV, use the learn remote option and set the STB to something else - cant remember which one I used, but basically you learn a different set of commands to the Apple TV and it works fine - you also get to choose which buttons you assign - although up down left right and go are pretty standard but I used yellow for exit as it is next to the others.

Hi, but you are not able to learn an Apple TV the ir signal from a Beo4 because it has an different frequence and I hate my Beo6... Is the puc managing slower in general on a BC6-26 than the other Beovisions?

I bought a converter from oneremote in Denmark and connected it to the scart used for VMEM and suddenly I was able to controll the Apple TV with good speed. The converter pic up the BO video ir codes from the scart outlet and convert them to ATV ir codes and it work like a charm! But it also means that the PUC program for ATV in my beocenter 6-26 is faulty because it is so slow...

I have had issues some times.

Once I simply needed to make sure the PUC's was correctly positioned over the Apple TV's "eye"

The other time I was rearrange wiring etc, and I believe I damaged something in the PUC's cabling - so I had to swap that PUC out and use one from another BV.

So intermittent failures (e.g. missing a key stroke, some slowness (not quite 3 seconds per stroke !)) all addressed better placement or replacement.

I use PUCs on ATV2 and ATV3 boxes, and I have BV8-32 and BV8-40.
