-Support for compilation albums. Previously title and cover art were shown per track, now only one cover art and one title are shown for the respective albums. This improvement also affects solo albums where the artist sings a duet with other artist on one or more of the tracks. These albums will be technically categorized as a "compilation album" and thus shown only once under title and cover.
-Improved MOTS -- reduced risk for copies of the same track to be played close to each other, including not playing the same track despite there being more than one album in the music collection.
-BeoPlayer/BeoPort 5.01 compatible with both BeoMedia1 and and BeoMaster 5.
-Automatic updating of software will happen two times per week going forward (Wednesday and Sunday)

Next Update:

-Navigation of N.MUSIC/N.RADIO via main room TV -- support for searching through the music collection via the TV screen.
-Continuous playback via N.MUSIC, for example live recordings could be played back as one track instead of being divided up in multiple tracks.
-Quick rewind/fast-forward in tracks via N.MUSIC
-Access to content stored on other units, for example NAS-drives, servers, USB-HDD, etc.
-Video Shifting -- Navigation via Linkroom TV
-Backwards compatibility with older Bang & Olufsen TV's -- support for connecting and using BM5 together with older TV's which do not 'understand' the PC command.
- Support for Asian signs and characters

Sounds good with the upcoming updates, they allready solved some of the issues that annoid me  I'm allready pleased with BS5 and looking forward to be even more pleased

Did any of you get the update?

I can see from other post it is rolled out but my BS5 can not see any new updates yet. I am stationed in Denmark and got my system up running saturday, if this has anything to do with it 

Mayby I shall be patient and let the BS5 do the update by itself when it got the time 🙂

Hmmm.. as far as I have heard the update is due in week 10 i.e. this week but so far no news about actual release time. I spoke to B&O earlier today who says that they also don't know (this was my usual B&O dealer).

But maybe it  has already been released... if someone has information I will be happy to know. My BS5 at least has so far not updated anything.

rgds,

This Sounds really good.still waiting for my Beomaster 5 🙁

Thanks for that update for Bm 5.

My BeoSound 5 is have just been updated.

BS5/BM5 Application is now 4.01.00.0953,

BS5 Main Firmware 1.30a and

BeoPlayer is 5.00.01.0613.

Looking forward to test it.

Hello, My BS5 updated nice and gently. My Beoplayer 5.0 do have some problem. When I start it an information tells me that e new BP5 is available and it starts to fetch it from BM5. But after a while when the BP icon has become red som information text appear in VISTA and says something like that I have to log on to a network resource. I try with different alternatives but I don´t understand if I´m supposed to log om the BM5 or the BM5 wants to log on to my PC?

Perhaps mr10 have the solution or Stefan?

Ingvar,

I did the BS5 update last night. Took about 5 minutes. I did not have time to test it.

Also, because I did not have my BP5 PC connected, I was not aware of a BP5 update. I'll give it a try later today.

Thanks

I think it must have something to do with the autentification system in Vista, are you loggen in as an administrator when the install runs? I stopped using Vista and switched back to XP SP3 and I got no problems. You can try and get the BP application on your Bm-share$\System\Install\BP_Client and install manually.

Regards

Yes I guess so, Vista is a little "crappy" when it comes to security, especially regarding to small home networks, guess it is the not so famous product "Windows for workgroups" somewhere in the bottom, wouldn´t be surprised.

Yes I am logged in as a administrator, I also tried to give "BEOMASTER5" the administrator role.

But tonight I will install by copying from the BM-SHARE$ as you suggests.

The BP5 perhaps do not have so much new features apart from better handling of albums with several artists I guess.

Thanks for device :-)
