Problem with Beosound Core and local sources

Firstly, I would like to echo what YannChris said about the lack of user manuals, I have spent ages going through every screen I could find to try and set up the Core. I have only just found the screen to tell the Core what type of speaker it is attached to!
I have a Beovision Eclipse, Beomaster7000 (with CD, Cassette tape, Beogram and a OneRemote), and a NL/ML converter.
On the setting up local sources screen, I can see all my Eclipse and Masterlink sources and have selected the ones I want. But on the screen to select the source to play I can only see one Eclipse source and one Masterlink source and I think these were there before I selected any local sources.
Any ideas on what I can do?
Also, I thought I would have B&O Radio on the Core but have Tunein.
Regards Paul
I don’t have a Core, but on my Essence, when I check the local sources, they immediately show up in my sources pick list
The fact that you’re not seeing B&O Radio, maybe you need to upgrade your app? Also, go into the TuneIn/B&O Radio tab on the app (the little transmit icon in the lower right corner of the app), and click on the B&O Radio tab, this might prompt for a TuneIn -> B&O Radio upgrade.
The app shows B&O radio but it also says the Core does not support it. Will carry on investigating. Paul
Look for an upgrade to the Core software. The latest should give you B&O Radio.
An update. I did a factory reset and this time I made the BLC the primary Beolink product and the Eclipse the secondary Beolink product and I can both select the Masterlink sources in the local sources screen and then choose them in the app and on the remote. I can select the Eclipse sources in the local sources but they do not show in the app or the remote. I can join a playing Eclipse source.
Still no B&O Radio and I appear to be at the last version of the software, 2.1.50871.22855122.

I have 2.1.51942 for my Core/Shape. To be fair, I was a member of the beta test team for a time; nevertheless, I believe this is the current release version.

Did you set the Radio preference for your system/Core to TuneIn or B&o Radio?
To do so:
select Radio on the app
select “settings”
select “Radio services”
select “Bang & Olufsen Radio”Note: only sources of primarily set Beolink Products are visible (a change after one of the sw updates)
Carola, thanks for that about the primary, I thought I had seen something like that but couldn’t find it.
I have spoken to my local dealer who sold me the core and they said the same about the preference but I already had it set. They have raised a call with B&O about B&O Radio. Will report back on response.
Just had a response from B&O support. It is a known issue which they are working to fix. There is a temporary solution to switch the radio back to Tunein and then back to B&O Radio, this works for me.
It might be that I migrated to B&O Radio before adding the Core.
