Hi

Yes a big thanks to Philippe- he has done a great job.

Im still using itunes 8.2, too nervous to switch to 9 as as least BM LINK has some functionality presently

Have been trialling LINK PLAYER .7.   I don't get the track titles displayed properly on my beocentre 2 either... Artist title will change, but track title will stay the same even the song has changed.

This may be rectified with itunes 9.... but im anxious about that.

How difficult is it to revert to an earlier version of itunes if i need to? I've downloaded version 8 just incase and its sitting on my computer- it wont let me instal it though as i already have 8.2. Any ideas ? Probably im a little off topic?

A big thanks to Philippe again.

Happy Christmas to all

David

First de-install itunes and than you are free to install what ever version you like.

both softwares work for me on my BeoSound 4

(and I don't believe a cable would be an issue, but settings/firmware on the 9000s might be ...)

Here is the BS4 showing BMLink's display info

and here is the BS4 displaying LinkPlayer's info: first an iTunes ripped CD and then an iTunes radio station (which scrolls)

I have integrated PLEX and eyeTV with it, and I am in the process of organising the herd's Movie and TV collections so they can be accessed via LinkPlayer and PLEX

I would like to link a Mac into my B&O system.  My main priority is to pull the internet, net radio, net music (itunes), BBC iPlayer, etc onto my TV.   Of course it would also be nice to pull the B&O devices onto the Mac.

I have a couple of questions:

1. What's the advantage of using LinkPlayer/Beoport over connecting an AppleTV or Mac Mini directly to the back of the TV and using the STB-C?

2. Is it possible to pull video off the Mac onto TV(s) connected to the Beolink system?  What connections are needed?

I'm new to LinkPlayer, so apologies if this has been covered elsewhere.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards and Happy Christmas to everyone!

Whoops!  Correction:  With Bmlink I got the artist info for a couple of seconds.  Beoplayer through windows does not show the meta data.  

On another note, I really prefer the Itunes coverflow mode in full screen as the primary display.  Is there anyway to have Itunes start up in this mode through any player?

Philippe,

I have sent a log of an error that made the default volume return to 00 on the linkplayer.  I wonder if any other beta testers have had this problem.  I will attempt to reproduce the problem for the log file.

Regards and a Merry Xmas again.

On earlier versions of the beta, the LinkPlayer interface would show "16" as the volume.  The latest version turns the volume to a zero value which is displayed as nothing.

This is irrelevant to me as I have no speakers attached to the BeoPort and therefore I have not filed a bug.  Nonetheless, this somewhat mars the beautiful fullscreen interface Phil has created, because I get a "Volume" label with a black void below.  And yet I recognize that showing "16" or any other value would also be meaningless as I sit listening to a linked device in another room with another volume setting.

I have not noticed this problem. How exactly does it manifest itself?

I just used the program and did not notice any problems with the volume. It works fine and is displayed correctly?

Phil has realized a good job! Thank you very much. The software is very good, better than bm-link!

I have a question, what kind of analog tv target I need? At the moment I have a EyeTV DTT (Elgato), but it´s digital and I can't find the link channel. Can you recommend any analog TV target compatible?

I am interested to control my HDR2 out my home.

I have created a script behaviour for Remote Buddy and now I can control N.MUSIC, CD, Radio,... with my Ipod Touch.
