1. I have tried a lot of apps, but I'm still searching for the one that can make my BS5 look cool like normal NMusic playing. I want it to show nice 500x500 resolution covers on my BS5 when selected on my IPad.

2. All players seem to stop after one song on the selected CD when selected on my IPad?

Any good experiences out there?

I like eLyric. Can add multiple items to a playlist. Has option to "shuffle" and "play all" in some screens. As for cover art, some of my tracks have cover art that looks exactly like when I play N.Music. Some are perhaps of a slightly lower quality, and some are missing. I am thinking it has to do with the manner I loaded the music. The few sample songs that came pre-installed on the Beosound look just as they do in N. Music mode,....beautiful.

App will also turn entire system on and can adjust volume from it, but is a bit touchy. The volume display will even respond on my BV7.

I have elyric too, but i can't power off beosound 5 with it. Somebody have a tip? I use beosound5/ beomaster5 and the sound on my beovision7.

With elyric it is possible to have a server different (from beomaster5) a nas for example and the player is beosound5 !

But i can't see beomaster5 on the server only some other NAS

THanks

I do not know of any way to use eLyric to power off the Beosound 5. I use the Beo 4/5 to turn off.

I have Beomaster 5 appearing in my eLyric as an option for both server and renderer.
