Andy,

Let me start by saying that if the dialog box says you are downloading 4.61, then you have the wrong version. If I run it it comes up with version 4.65 as below:-

It maybe that you are actually downloading through a proxy which has not been updated.

Hooray!!!🤩
Finally got it going.
The only thing I did differently was, instead of clicking 'Run' I clicked 'Save'
Strangely, when I opened the folder it was saved in, it was sitting there side by side with the download I had done an hour ago. Both different versions!
First time I installed, it wouldn't let me register and therefore had no NRADIO stations.
I just clicked 'Repair' and this time it allowed me to register.
I now have everything functionong correctly
Album covers, how cool is that?🤩 I'm well chuffed.

Andy T.

Well done Andy,

Do ALL your albums have covers or only some ?

During my testing I have observed the following symptoms related to "Album Covers" and I would be pleased to received feedback on this thread of your observations.

Having tested Beoport version 4.65 on 4 PC's so far both as "clean" installs, in other words Beoport was not previously installed on the PC or as an upgrade I have noted the following points:-

1. If music files exist in your "My Music" folder prior to installation, then after installation either no album covers are downloaded or just a few and the ones that did not get downloaded previously do not subsequently get updated.
2. When you copy a CD from PC CD it seems to always run the downloader for the cover, but never checks for other missing covers
3. If you add music files AFTER Beoport has been installed it seems to download the covers every time correctly.

So, the observations so far are that if you are a new user of Beoport and you do not have any music albums on your PC yet, the new version will work perfectly for you. If you already have a copy of Beoport on your PC with Music files or you already have music files on your PC before Beoport is installed you will get verious results with regards to the Album covers, how many are downloaded, or if any are downloaded at all.

Please provide your feedback of Beoport Version 4.65 in terms of "Album Covers" only

Hello all,

 I downloaded and installed 4.65 the other day and everything including albums worked fine (on XP). There seems however to be a bug in the random function. Instead of playing random songs within a playlist, it plays random songs within all my playlists, which kind of kills the whole point of a play list for me.

Has anyone else discovered this issue?

regards //anders


 

Hi anders,  I missed this too to begin with, there is a config option within setup that controls random playback either within a single group or across all groups, so it's not a bug but a new "feature"!

I upgraded to 4.65 the day before yesterday but will probably have to downgrade again based on the following problem.

Since the upgrade my timer setting activating N-RADIO each morning in my link rooms has stopped working. The Timer setting is set in my BV5 as the master and the timer set activated in my bathrooms via BL3500s and in the Diningroom via my BeoSound4.

Since the upgrade the timer is no longer activating and I would almost suspect that there is a massive disturbance on the MasterLink as both the BV5 and BS4 are totally uncontrollable (frozen) until I unplug the ML from the Beoport unit and power recycle the BS4.

Once this is done and the Beoport is again connected and the Beoport application is restarted the system works as normal i.e. N-RADIO, N-MUSIC can be selected from any of the link rooms.

Note that on the PC locally N-RADIO works even though the other link devices are "frozen". This behaviour only seems to be triggered by the timer setting. The PC and attached loudspeaker are by the way not set to activate on timer.

Any ideas or is a rollback the only option.

Kind regards Rolf

Dear Gavin,

thanks for the advice - tested it and it works perfectly. Regarding the N-Radio issues I'm still stuck at square on. Have tried to install BP4.65 several times but it doesn't work. Just don't get it as I didn't orignally change anything in my set-up and N-RADIO just stopped working by itself.

thankful for any advice

regards //anders
