Great joke! You made my day 🙂

Hi,

Still very slow for me by now.

Same lag as mentioned by Ravsted.

Hi,

Version 5.8.1.24032553275 available today. I hope it’s not the buggy version mentioned earlier.

Volume control is back on BL50 screen (Why did they made a yellow slider???).

Nothing else tested for the time being.

Kind regards,

Yann.

They have taken a crap app, revised it into something unusable? For God’s sake, at any price this is unacceptable. At today’s B&O prices this is diabolical!

I agree

@ Matador,

I remember something happened with 3rd party codes assigned on hardkeys in one of the last versions of the config-tool or firmware update.

I checked in the archive but cannot find where.

The best person to help on this matter is Keith.

Yann.

Thanks.

I’ll let you know when the batteries will be here.

I was also in the same case and solved the problem as follows:

• Use of a NAS as dedicated multimedia storage (QNAP TS-251), the music library is managed in the NAS with the built-in softwares.
• Ripping all my cds to the NAS in FLAC format (using dBpoweramp software),
• Digitizing my LPs (using an USB soundcard and Audacity),
• First added Core to my setup as player,
• Then changed the Core for a Wiim Pro Plus with digital connexion to my beolabs.

As my Beolabs are pre-Mozart ones, the Wiim app on a phone/tablet gives acess to music, streaming services (a plus vs Core as I use Qobuz) and net radios. Only downside: volume control is done in the B&O App.

As BL28s have digital inputs and built-in renderer, you could have full control through the B&O app.

Kind regards,

Yann

Just an idea,

Did you keep the original battery which came with the remotes?

For comparison of the labels with the replacement ones sold on the Internet?

Hi Matador,

After reading the 2 other threads, I placed an order on this site mentioned by Tignum:

https://www.batteries4pro.com/fr/multimedia/telecommande/3,19049-batterie-24v-12ah-nimh-pour-t%C3%A9l%C3%A9commande-bang-olufsen-beo5-4894128166993.html

 

 

I’ll let you know the result.

It won’t be soon, as delivery is expected within 4 weeks.

Kind regards,

Yann.

Hi Marc,

Happy to meet you.

In the transition, I lost my avatar and the “Founder” mention which was previously added to my gold member status.

Kind regards,

Yann.

[YannChris]

Thumbs up for this smooth transfer

[YannChris]

Keith,

Thank you for the years you spent keeping Beo running smoothly for our community.

Also thank you for the invaluable knowledge and advice you have given to all those who had to solve a problem with their installation.

Kind regards,

Yann.

When I tap the black bar, I go to the source page (ie BS Core on the screenshot).

BUT, if I use my Wiim Pro+ for Qobuz, I have to use the BL50 page, as the source is not present in the BO app.

When he installed my speakers, my dealer prefered to disable the volume control through the source, as he experienced a problem when the speakers once started unexpectably a full power, which damaged them.

Yann.

Already done, plus a post on Discord

Hi Stoobie,

Here’s the list of my archived versions.

Wrong post, sorry.

Valve, you were faster than me 🙂

Hi,

Unfortunately, BV9 is a 110 kg monolith and I would not take the risk to dismantle it.

The best is to hire movers, you’ll take advantage of their tricks… and strength 🙂

Good luck,

Yann.
