BeoSound Ouverture without
speakers – AV system...
The BeoSound Ouverture music centre
can also be used in a Bang & Olufsen
surround sound AV system.
In an AV system, you have direct access
to all your audio and video sources –
and they are all heard through the
same set of loudspeakers.
To play a source in the AV system, all
you have to do is press a single button
– either directly on the system (audio
or video), or on the remote control.
The Beo4 remote control integrates
remote operation of all the sources in
the AV system.
Note: The operations described on page 38 do not
apply to a fully integrated AV system as described
on this page.
Beo4 remote control and AV system...
In a fully integrated Bang & Olufsen AV system,
the AV button on the Beo4 remote control gives
access to a few extra functions:
• Simulcast radio/TV transmissions...
To watch a TV program while listening to the
sound from a radio program at the same time,
press TV then LIST until AV* is displayed, and
then RADIO on the Beo4 remote control.
(Simulcast radio/TV transmissions can be
recorded on the video tape recorder.)
• Recording on the ‘opposite’ recorder...
In an AV system, the sound from your video
sources (TV, Satellite, or video tape) can be
recorded on the tape in the BeoSound
Ouverture: To do so, you must press, for
example, TV then LIST until AV* is displayed,
and then RECORD, RECORD on the Beo4 remote
control.
*Note: In order to display AV on Beo4, you must
add the function to Beo4. Please refer to Beo4’s
own User’s guide and the chapter Customising
your Beo4 for further instruction.
When the BeoSound Ouverture music centre is
used in a fully integrated Bang & Olufsen AV
system, the video system takes over some of
the functions mentioned in this guide, for
example the functions related to the BeoSound
Ouverture SETUP button.
In an AV system, the loudspeakers (two or four)
are connected to the video system.
Furthermore, in an AV system all remote control
operations (audio and video) must be directed to
the video system.
* Note: Only certain types of Bang & Olufsen
video systems are equipped to master a fully
integrated AV system – operated with the Beo4
remote control. Please contact your Bang &
Olufsen dealer for further information.
