Beosound 5 - Music list issue

14 replies
Now, when you indicate 1000 x 1000 as a formal limit for the Encore, does that also apply to regular old BS5/BM5 as well?
That's a long time ago, but if I remember correctly it was the same. And be aware not all picture formats were/are accepted.
And on a separate matter, I am curious: the sw is different, right? I mean the BS5/BM5 is Windows Embedded, the Encore must be something else altogether?
BS5/BM5 - Windows XP Embedded BS5e - Linux    
Hi, I have a Beosound/beomaster 5 connected via cable on ti the network (i’m sorry for my english but i’m italian). about the bs and bm i have an issue for the data of the cd. So the problem is that when i ripp my cd’s with the ripping device of the bs 5 it have me no information and no album image. At this point i tried using named cd’s such as Adele, sade, george Michael but nothing….

anyone can help me in this situation? Tanks

My tagging I do via iTunes on a Mac: I use the Mac to import from CD, I let the Mac deal with all the metadata, except the album art —because the album art the Mac assigns doesn’t get copied when I export the music to the BS5/BM5. Instead, I import my own album art into iTunes. I then export the music to the BS5/BM5. As long as the album art is 600 x 600 or smaller, the BS5 is very happy with the metadata and it all stores and displays correctly on the BS5.
I have since been advised that the maximum size is 1000x1000.
