Thanks Guy, I have sent them a message, appreciated!
I am not sure, perhaps there is a way to improve my settings as well?
Is there a reason this delay black screen shows for 6 seconds on every move I press play on? Is not the preview screen with the text about the movie in a certain frame rate as well? I thought this black screen was due to switching between different frame rates but if so 0% of the netflix movies has the same frame rate as the netflix’s general interface with all the preview screens, or?
The tv is located in sweden so I guess it is set to 50hz (I saw a setting for this in an older beovision 4 but on the avant no such setting that I see that I can edit).
I can set the apple-tv external box to either SDR 50hz or SDR 60hz
But it does not seem to matter if I set 50 or 60hz when I have the “match frame rate” on, it seems to do this handshake frame checking every time I play something.
I actually remember I spoke to a repair guy at a b&o service center in another city and I asked if it was a good idea to buy the avant 55 mk1’s used. He said “well basically all video engines on those models fails eventually.”
I thought “hmm that can’t happen on all, maybe I’m lucky”
Nope!
Is this not a fabrication error that should be fixed (for free) even after the warranty has run out?
Thanks for the replies. Eventually the tv refused to boot up. It always got stuck at a gray static fuzzy screen even after having it plugged out from the power supply for days.
I had to wait for a very expensive mainboard fix for about 4 months. Now I can see tv again.Yep I asked B&O and apparently they have checked this but they said the swipe command uses bluetooth and not IR. And I asked if it would help if I get the bluetooth version of the beoremote one but they said it wont help.
I tried to connect an old non-swipe-compatible apple tv remote but the swipe requirement on the tv channel switch was still there. Perhaps their apps are using this as standard when they recognize they are installed on an apple tv 4k since that remote can use swipe.
I guess I could go back to the old non-4k apple tv but then I will not get 4k screen which would be a downgrade on the avant that has great 4k ability.
I really like that my current setup with floor stand only has a single white power cable going down from the avant. The apple tv is hidden inside the back of the tv. I have been thinking about trying chromecast. I saw the ultra version had 4k. Anyone have any experience on this or any similar?
