    Re: Beo6 wifi with Beosound 5

    It's available as of today.  There's a new service tool available and the updates should have come in over the weekend for the BeoSound 5.

    Nothing new as it is currently only updated for two-way with the BeoSound 5 ... not Encore.

    Re: Beo6 wifi with Beosound 5

    Does anyone know if it works with 802.11n networks or if it only works with G networks?

    Also, will this come to the Encore as well at some later date when they have rolled it out for the BM5/BS5 combo?

    Re: Beo6 wifi with Beosound 5

    The first product to support the functionality of the new Beo6 firmware is the BeoSound 5 with BeoMaster 5.

    The following are the key features implemented so far:-

    • Support for two-way sources
    • Support for 12 languages
    • XML version displayed on Choose products. When you click on the B&O product the version is shown underneath the product image
    • Bug fixes including (1) stop sending IR which often causes the battery to go flat (2) Improved interaction on page navigation "arrows"
    • Three covers on the first page Playing, Most played and for inspiration!!
    • Content browsing
      • Browse index – Select first letter of artist or album
      • Artists – Browse for an artist, view the album and tracks of an artist
      • Albums – Browse all your albums, view the tracks of an album
      • Play or Queue selected artists, albums or tracks
      • Initiate MOTS from tracks
    • Status
      • Displays a larger cover of what is playing
      • Artist, album and track information
      • Status displayed when placed in charger
    • Play Queue browsing
      • View the Play queue
      • Skip to track in Play queue
      • Delete track from Play queue
    • Setup menu
      • A wireless section has been added
      • Enter Service Menu (0 0 Select in Setup Menu)
      • Menu which enables you to check the signal strength
      • Power menu which enables you to change timeout period to WiFi access point

    Other facilities which were actually introduced in Configuration Tool version 4.11 but most people do not appear to have noticed is that you can:-

    • Set the IR-output level per zone
    • Set IR-output level per macro
    • Print list of channel logos

    Re: Beo6 wifi with Beosound 5

    Excellent news. Time to order one for me.  Just one question first though. I recall from other threads that the Bs5 would have to be set as audio master in order to use the different iPhone apps out there. Would the same be true for Beo6? I have a Bs9000 that I would like to keep as audio master.

    The Configuration Tool is version 5.12

    Keith Saunders:

    The Configuration Tool is version 5.12

    I should have pointed out that what Roger was talking about is the firmware loaded into the Beo6

    So, the Beo6 firmware has been updated from version 1.01a to 2.11a

    When you download a new configuration to the Beo6 with the Configuration Tool version 5.12 then the new firmware 2.11a is automatically downloaded to the Beo6 prior to your new configuration file.

    Re: Beo6 wifi with Beosound 5

    My dealer is still telling me its not available...

    Alex.. Is this for public release yet? Or just beta for stores?

    I'm ready for something new that I actually want to buy!

  • 11-30-2011 2:27 PM In reply to

    Re: Beo6 wifi with Beosound 5

    The new version is available to all dealers and it is the full released version

    Regards Keith....

  • 11-30-2011 2:33 PM In reply to

    Re: Beo6 wifi with Beosound 5

    To be fair it has just been released, they may not have even had a chance to try it in store yet, and probably want to play ith and fully understand before releasing to clients.
