Hallo.

My Beo5 is up and running, played with it this weekend and added a few albums.

I really love it, but I have a few future wishes/requests, so what is the best way to do this?

Post it in this forum?, mail B&O?, My dealer?

And another question.

What do you do with multiple cd from the same album?

I use media player to rip my albums and then they end up in two or more folders , do you move all songs into the same folder, or keep the folders, and let Beo5 show more than one of same cover?

Regards

Atle.🤔

I've found 2 different issues (B&O shortcomings) related to your question about multiple CDs.

1.) BeoSound 5 and BeoPlayer have trouble with properly organizing tracks from multiple CDs in a set. I've found that it's best to tag each album with "[Disc 1]" or "[Disc 2]" after the album name. 

2.) BeoSound 5 and BeoPlayer will dump together tracks from CDs with the same album name. For example "Greatest Hits" as the name of an album can include ALL tracks from any album entitled "Greatest Hits." To prevent this, I've found it's best to rename the album "Greatest Hits - Abba" for example.

At least, I found this to be a problem with transferring music with the older version of BeoConnect. I'm not sure if the latest version of BeoConnect has fixed these problems.
