LinkPlayer Feedback Thread
In other rooms you'll be able to listen to all sources, including N.MUSIC and N.RADIO.
If you do want to listen to your audiomaster while in the study, you should add a Beolink Active with an IR receiver in that room and connect the speakers to it.
Thanks Spiros and Phil for your comments and replies!
So no video in the study, either?
If I understand correctly, then, to get the full two-way features with audiomaster- and videomaster-sources on the MAC and N.MUSIC/N.RADIO throughout the house, I have to get a new audiomaster in the living room?
Since I watch the news (from the cable decoder controlled with the STB-controller) and occasionally listen to the FM radio in the study, this is the solution for me. But if you don't need the video/TV on the MAC this new feature of the LinkPlayer seems very useful - I guess there are many of us who will appreciate the possibility to get N.MUSIC and N.RADIO on the LINK-system without the cost of a new audiomaster!

Hello Morten,
I think we are dealing with two different issues. Concerning the N.Music and N.Radio it is as described by Philippe. However, in order to have the video sources in the link room, you need the RF modulator which is a box connected to the main antenna and this distributes your RF signal from the Video Master (Avant) to the links e.g. Eye TV.
From my point of view although this could work with your current setup, most probably a newer Audio master would make more straight forward.
I know the feeling as most of us here at Beoworld started up with different products regardless of connectivity etc but when time passes we start upgrading (and cash goes away 😉 )
p.
Seems there are a couple of possible solutions here - thanks again for your comments and clarifications! I will consider the options, and maybe try out the "old audiomaster solution" first!

Can LinkPlayer be used while a BeoMaster 5/BeoSound 5 is in the MasterLink network? Ever since I got my BeoSound 5, I have had my BeoPort disconnected from the computer and the MasterLink network, thinking that having a BeoPort and a BeoMaster 5/BeoSound 5 both in the MasterLink network would create a conflict. It would be great to have the option of both the LinkPlayer as well as the BeoSound 5 in the MasterLink. Perhaps if the BeoSound 5 had the N.Music and N.Radio functions reassigned as, for instance, CD and Radio (which is now possible on the BeoSound 5)? Then the N.Music and N.Radio functions would be freed up for the LinkPlayer?

Perhaps, it is worth trying. But I do not have a Beomaster 5, so cannot test that. It probably does not depend on LinkPlayer, but more on the Beomaster 5.
Hello Phil
Any plan to get it to work with Tiger ?
btw, I join to everybody here to praise this great work
Regards
No plan to support Tiger. Leopard and Snow Leopard are supported on Intel and Motorola platforms.
