Does that mean I don't get cover art on a Beo 5?

Does a Beo 5 show my Nmusic library?

The Beo5 has no two-way-communication/ wifi. So you don't get covers on Beo5.

Take a look at the manual page 8.

To check if you remote is a Beo6 got to the menue. If there is a point for "wireless" it is a beo 6.

Also page 8 ;-)

Good luck.

Ok, I'm feeling dumb.

I thought I had a Beo 5 because there was no wireless option when I went into the setup menu, but now that I reconfigured the remote, it shows up.

Here's what I did. I plugged the remote into the computer, the configuration tool recognized the serial #, I added a zone and put my Beomaster 5/Beosund 5 product in it (as an audio master). I went to the view screen (didn't change anything else) and played with the touch screen buttons which seemed to do what I wanted, and downloaded the configuration onto the remote successfully.

When I try to use the remote, the only touchscreen things that work are the return, and the plus sign brings up numbers. I cannot touch the zone and make anything happen, or change between headings in the setup menu by touching the screen. I can navigate the setup menu with the arrow buttons and the go button, but I cannot enter a password to connect to the network, and I'm sure I won't be able to select things from the touch screen when I get to my music.

Ideas?

Nobody is dump...you ask for help and you got it. Thats it.

Hm...sounds a litte bit strange.

Which config tool do you use?

I don't know...maybe switch it off..hold the button in the middle for 10 sec or download the config again??

Maybe the Beo6 did an update to a newer version, so the download of the configuration file didn't work correctly??

I don't know...I think you need to try some things on your own.

Sorry. I can not help properly ;-(

Yep, tried all those things.

Anyone else?

Did you try pressing a little bit harder and longer on the buttons on the screen.

With my Beo5 I tried using it like the screen of a modern tablet, but I have to press the screen buttons a little bit harder and longer.

Thanks for responding,

Yep, I tried that too, but from what I am reading, that aspect of having to push hard was a Beo 5 thing and was resolved with the 6 model. I even tried a hard reset by disconnecting the battery and I think I'm coming to the conclusion that the screen may be bad.

It is hard to make a diagosis for far away, but it sounds like a bad display ;-(

Hi again!

OK, Now I have obtained a properly functioning Beo 6. I loaded in my configuration for a stand alone Beomaster5 and Beosund 5. 1 zone, audio master, no other settings touched. The remote controls the basic settings on the Beosund 5 (play, pause, next, etc) but I am unable to get my N music on the screen. My Beomaster 5 is hard wired to my network and is connected to the internet properly. I went into the Wireless setup on the beo 6 and connected to my wifi and the unit said connection ok after I entered the password, but the Beo 6 info heading says access point not connected. It gives a Beo 6 IP as 0.0.0.0 a mac address and a server IP firmware 4.3.4

What am I missing?

Can you try with autoconnect?

Or maybe this is interesting
