Version 1.24.41628 for M5 is available now (in Copenhagen). I have installed it, and as far as I can tell, there is no new funtionality. Hopefully it is a bugfix that will take care of your problems with the previous update.

I hope it shows up in the USA soon.

Could someone with the newest version check something for me? Could you see if the Tune In station Venice Classic Radio now works? It stopped working a few months ago due to a change in the format.

I have been told that the update should have solved the problem. Still waiting for the update to get to the USA.

Thanks!

Hi Razlaw,

I am currently listening to that TuneIn station (s95144) on an M5 with v1.24.40905.

I am glad to hear that it works. Thank you for checking.

After B&O support confirmed receipt of logs from me and kept silent for 12 days I received the following:

"Thank you for reply.

We're sorry to hear you're still having issues with your Beoplay M5, we've confirmed that this issue is related to the software and not the hardware of the Beoplay M5, we don't have an estimated time frame as to when we'll have this resolved as yet, we can assure you resolving this software issue is a priority for us, and we'll update you as soon as possible, we recommend you power cycle when this occurs as we don't have another work-around for it.

We appreciate your patience & understanding, please, do not hesitate to contact us again if you have a doubt or another question."

I have continuously fed them logs during this time and explained what is happening.

Now I just keep my fingers crossed that they fix this. Thereafter I will shut of the automatic FW updates....

Sad news .... I would ask and insist to have the working version of the firmware made available for you to download and install the time they fix the issue. I have done that for my Core that is not working properly since March update.
