Beo Sound 5 & Beo Master

10 replies

Whilst I know this is quite an old system now ,( I have just bought it second hand).  I can play stored music on the system but am unable to link into radio stations, any ideas on how to rectify this? 

There is a manual for the Beosound 5 on the B and O web page. The BS5 must be connected to the internet and registered. Page 20 of the manual should help you get started. Hope this helps.
Also, there is now a 24 hour phone service available from B and O to help people with issues such as setting up products. The number can be found on the B and O web page. They might be able to assist you.
BM5 has to be connected to your router to have internet access, best connected by ethernet (LAN).

Does B&O still curate the internet radio station list, or was that only on the Moment? And if so, what do you do now if you want to add additional ones?

I think the list is still maintained ,

I took a picture of my settings a few days ago, Radio update date is 2019-02-23.

I don't know if the list is complete, I found every station I was looking for, but I listen mostly to 4 stations.

I do not know if there was a possibility to add own stations, I think not.

Thanks to all who responded, system up and running fine now. Many thanks.

Thanks. I've heard B&O maintained a list, and users could contact them and request a station be added. I know with iTunes and my Auralic there is a list, but I don't know if it's actively curated, as in if some stations are deemed unworthy, or if some outside agency keeps a master list they use, or what. I need to look into that as it's been a subject of idle curiosity for me.

If you want to connect your BM5 to your Win10 PC its possile, by that way you may tag your ripped tracks as if they were saved on your loval PC. You havecto use Beoconnect software

I may verify if a special station is in the list, which one are you searching for?
