Just an observation, according to the spec on the Bang Olufsen page for the Playmaker, it does not support WMA lossless... Which makes me wonder how useful it would be for BS5/BM5 where it is recommended to ripp into WMA lossless (which I have done)???

Why would you use the Playmaker if you have a BS5?

That will work, because bm5 is d lna server.  You would use an app on your phone to play music from bm5 on the playmaker.

If you want to sync both rooms (same music at same time) you would need ml between them.  Personally, having made the investment in a bm5 I would run the ml and get a beo 6.  Playmaker is aimed more at people looking for a cheap way into band o, and wouldn't give you the best return on the investment you have already made in the bm 5

Then a playmaker will work.

A bs5 encore would be a lot more elegant and user friendly though

I goes this is how it looks!

Not really, since in the specs it says it does not support WMA lossless!

(So I have to stick with using my dlna app on my HTC, which controls the main room BS5/BM5 which I then access in link room using link a aux.)
