LinkPlayer Feedback Thread

Just to reply quickly to Philippe, the album navigation is possible with BMLink, you simply select  " albums / all " in Itunes, and voilà!

How this works , I don't know, but it works, with the left & right arrows I skip through albums, and BMLink has no GUI, it uses the Itunes interface, so there must be a solution..🤔

With the latest linkplayer (0.9 - very nice btw)  I still have the issue that my beosound 9000 display is limited to just track numbers yet with bm-link the display works fine (set for 12 character displays). Various display settings in linkplayer dont seem make any difference - I still just get 'N.Music' with what I guess is a track number displayed. Is anyone else seeing this issue and maybe has figured a workaround ?

Anything new with the iPhone app?  Or maybe an iPad app? 🙂

Although the App is working fine, LinkPlayer on the Mac tends to crash when used with the App. I have not had the time to fix this bug which is quite hard to replicate.

Also, I have sent the app to 4 people, but there seems to be a problem of code signature and they were not able to install.

I have worked on Linkplayer and will release a new version this week.

Version 0.9.5 has been released today: http://web.me.com/philrobin/LinkPlayer/Change_Log/Entries/2010/4/12_Beta_0.9.5.html

The new features include:

 

  • Vintage Audiomaster compatibily (Get N.MUSIC on AudioMaster that are not compatible with N.NUSIC!)
  • Improvements in Full Screen display:
    • Improved Menu
    • Improved Song Info display
    • Configurable Menu source
    • Option to display the Clock instead of the volume indicator
  • New internal Sources: LinkRadio, Video (Listen to Internet Radios, play video files without starting iTunes, frontrow or Plex)
  • Auto update

It might need a jailbroken iphone to be able to be loaded onto someone's other than the developer's iphone.  My stuff is all on a boat somewhere but once it gets here if you want I can give it a whirl on my jailbroken iphone if you'd like.

No problem following the instructions to get it on to my wife's phone ... which is a pure iPhone (unhacked)

FANTASTIC 

Thanks Phil

 

PS that was my 666th post ... I hope that's not ominous 😜

 Vintage Audiomaster compatability:

I have used Beoport for many years, enjoying video and audio from my living room in the study. But I have been hesitant to replace my BC2300 to get N.MUSIC and N.RADIO trough the house. Now I see a solution, since I'm about to change from PC to MAC!

On the Configuration page where the setup for Vintage Compatability is explained, it says "You cannot get the audiomaster or videomaster sound on speakers connected to the Beoport." What does that mean?

My setup will be:

Living room: Avant RF (with speakers connected) and BC2300 via ML/MCL converter

Study: iMAC with Beoport, BL4s connected to Beoport, EyeTV

Bedroom: MX4002

Will this setup enable full use of main room sources (videomaster and audiomaster) in the study and the distribution of N.MUSIC and N.RADIO (iTunes)  through the house?

From my point of view it should not be a problem with Linkplayer.

Philippe has done a marvelous job with this software.

And my self moved from pc to mac a few months ago and with Linkplayer, I'm not going back!!!!! Actually, Beoport was the only thing keeping me from changing to Mac but with Linkplayer problems solved.
