Version 2.1.0.16282:

@MrAndersen - Release notes only states “Bug fixes”. As beta tester I would like to have a bit more detailed info.

However, I have testet the DLNA cover art feature when playing music from my NAS.

When playing on my BV11/Core integrated setup, there is no cover art displayed in the Now Playing window although cover art is present when the songs are selected (screen shots below)

When the same is playing on my M5 cover art is present in the Now Playing window (screen shots below)

This problem on the BV11/Core may have been present on the latest few versions, but I have seen DLNA cover art here earlier on in the beta test.

Again - please add more detailed info on what to test when releasing new beta versions Best regards - Dyssegaard

Dys... would the app work that you don’t need the core integrated with the BV11 or will you always need it integrated?

Thanks

I will always need to have the Core integrated, because it shares the speakers with the BV11. Furthermore it turns on the BV11 when I select the Core from my Spotify app, and I can control the volume and playback directly from the lock screen of my phone (very convenient).

@Michael

Would be difficult, since you can have 2 or even more streams playing simultaneously on a NL setup.

Bumbing my question regarding Apple Shortcut integration. Would be great if you could make a widget to close the Homekit curtains, dimm the light and startup the tv and Netflix.

Yesterday saw me having to restore/reinstall the OS on my iPad, as it has been playing up for a few days, constantly rebooting etc.

Being an older iPad the earlier B&O remote app works on it just fine, and is my main method of controlling my system.

Whilst the iPad was being reformatted I used the latest B&O app on my iPhone running IOS 12.1 and the Beo4 to control my system.

Despite being probably the worlds best infra red hand held remote control, I still personally prefer a touch pad app to a 'stick' remote.

The new B&O app on the iPhone is nice, but lacks the ability to easily access speaker groups and sound modes - other than through the setup menu on the TV.  Also there is no way to picture mute whilst listening to music.

Are these features being considered to be added, or is the app going to be left with only superficial functions compared to either the Beo 4 or the previous B&O remote app which was and is, excellent?

I don't have access to the beta version either, so if these facilities are planned to be offered - fantastic.  If not, please do so for those of us who prefer to use an app and touch screen than a stick remote, and bring the new app in line with what was offered and worked really well on the previous B&O remote app.

Many thanks

John.. :-)

I unfortunately need to confirm the same problems also with the latest non beta release:

- I think it's after I installed IOS 12 - since this, my H8 crashes if I open the B&O app and change any sound settings while not playing any Music (H8 is only connected via BT). Sounds curious, but if I try to change any settings for the H8 while playing music, everthing went fine. Need to pull the battery out of the H8 to reset these and get them back to work...otherwise they are completely unresponsive 😒
Latest firmware already installed - my hope was, that this new beta app version will fix that issue, but it‘s still there.

- since IOS 12 sound settings are not saved. Power off the H8 will reset any sound settings which are previously set by the app back to default. So setup the sound control to ‚clear‘, it‘s applied to the H8, but powering the headphone off and on, the H8 sounds different...opening the app shows that my H8 is working without any sound setup.

I think this is since IOS 12...not sure, but I never noticed such issues any time before.

Appreciate your help!
