Updated to version 5.5.1.23111057914 (not beta) yesterday, and now I can use all my BLC sources again on A6 and Cores.
Yes that is progress.

But there is still a long way to go before we are able to do, what we could in the previous (regular) version.



Why shouldn’t we be able to access the internal sources (such as B&O Radio……) from Source List?

Would be nice to know if that is coming (again) in time….
……or if these will be left out for good in the future app versions!

But it is nice to be able to start e.g. CD from there - something (by the way) that we still miss on the BST.

You're never going to see B&O Radio, Music an Deezer again in that list, no matter how long you wait or pray ? They've made it clear they are going to include in the sources list only linked external sources, such as aux-in, optical in, or BLC connected products. All "software-side" "sources" aren't considered sources you can "switch to". You just open the respective app/page and play it from there, selecting the B&O device as an output. Now that I write it, I realise it would therefore make much more sense to those items being referred to as "input list" rather than a generic "sources" (and would create less confusion).

Personally I never prayed for it but strangely the B&O radio source from my linked A9 shows on the Music list of my BLC NL/ML (BV8)… Music is doubled, and the never used (in Europe) Qplay is also back in the source list…
I thought B&O Radio was gone forever but it turns out that if I hit the "0" button at the top of the Beoremote Essence, and the device cycles thru available sources... there it is, B&O Radio!

It seems this is now the only way to access B&O Radio, at least in my setup.

Strange times.
Hi,

I cannot find the way to change TV channel when using the app to control Theatre.

< > keys call the live playback function.

Any clue?

Yann.

Thanks, Mbee, I see it there!

Still odd that once one clicks on the black bar at the bottom, to show what's now playing, the list of available sources is now very limited.  N.Music and N.Radio and even Deezer and B&O Radio are all gone.

And yes, you are right that if one backs out, at least Deezer and B&O Radio survive on the white bar.  Thanks!
