The options to make these changes only show up after you select the BS5 as Audio Master.

If your main system contains an Audio system, you won't be able to rename source on the Beosound 5....

I have just acquired a BeoSound 5 and am in the process of trying to commission it myself.

I would like to rename my N.Music & N.Radio on my BS5. When I go to Roles, I just get 2 options - Audiomaster - chosse yes or no, & AM with choices of 0,1 or 2. How do I get to the option of changing the names. For the moment, I am using the BS5 as a standalone until I get a masterlink cable & plug to link it with the main system.

Many thanks for any advise.

Hi Guy,

Very strange as since Application 4.01.00.0953 I have received two more application updates, the latest only last week. I would contact B&O in France and ask them why.

I have updated my Beosound manually once before, (I was too impatient to wait for the automatic update due later that evening!) and seem to remember that it returns a message like 'downloading software update' and then counts up to 100% then installs with various progress messages appearing on the screen of the BS5.

I cant imagine that being located in the Parisian area should make any difference to available updates.

Best wishes

Paul

Hi Paul,

You're right about the software version (5.02). However my BS5/BM5 Application version seems to be an earlier, ie 4.01.00.0953. Same for BM5 ML Firmware, which is 2.25.

As I said, the Check for update returns 'no update available'. Intriguing. The only thing I can think about is that, since I'm located in the Parisian area, that the updates are not for BS5 located in France. If this is the case someone has to explain to me why.

Regards,

Guy

Hi Griebel,

The current software version is still 5.02, the latest update (mine updated itself last week) changed the BS5/BM5 Application from version 4.01.01.1084 to version 4.02.01.1291 and the BM ML Firmware from version 2.25 to version 2.27.

It maybe that your BS5 has already updated itself automatically, but you may have missed the changes above as, like me, you were expecting the software version to change.

Kind regards

Paul

Is there any trick to launch the update? My BS5 hasn't been updated and is correctly connected to the web. When I select 'Check updates' it returns 'no update available'. Software version is 5.02. Has anyone any clue?

You`re welcome. When you connect your Beolabs to the Avant and set it to V.OPT 2 and the BS5 to A.OPT 0 , you would be able to control BS5 via RADIO ans CD commands.

THX Stefan. It works that way. I didn't know that, but it's logical it should be like that.

Should work with AV - CD and AV - RADIO. Did you try that?

I have experienced that after changing to 'CD' and 'RADIO' on my BS5, my BV AVANT cant play the sound from my BS5 any more. I use to press 'A-N.MUS' on my BEO4 remote an then the sound was on my BV AVANT, but it dos not work any more!

Is there a function that gets CD and RADIO sound over my AVANT that I don't know of?

Any surgestions, or other that experience the same problems?

I have had no issues with the system since the upgrade but "unfortunately" as I have a BeoSound4 in my setup I am unable to make use of the new functionality with the source names which is a real drawback. If any of you have any ideas how to solve this (apart from selling the BeoSound4) then your input would be appreciated. I only use the CD functionality once in a blue moon via the BeoSound and never Radio, only N-Radio and N-Music.

Also note that the latest software upgrade also contained a new BeoPort/BeoConnect client version. If your client PC has not already detected this then try to shut down the application and restart it or alternatively reboot your client PC.

I can confirm that linkroom navigation works fine with CD/Radio on Remote via MX4002 and on BL2000 normal buttons after getting the new version installed.

I haven´t had any problems at all with my installation of BS5/BM5 so far.

Great. So activating N.RADIO from Linkrooms should also be possible just by touching the display of a BL3500 or by pressing RADIO on a BL2000..(?)
