For your interesset, B&O have very resontly updated the software for BeoPort and BeoPlayer to version 5.00.01
The biggest difference in my eyes is that it now support beomaster 5 and beosound 5. But for me the USB driver for the BeoPort is also working better under Vista
You can download the new software
Hmmm I have not really figured out why it can not see my mapped drive when it is not a service. However if you have same problem as me, here is a workaround:
Make a bat file like mount.bat, place it in C:\temp\ and put the following code into it:
set SHARESERVER=servername
set SHARENAME1=sharename
set SHAREUSER=username
set SHAREPASSWD=password
echo %date% %time% : "%cd%\mount.bat" >> C:\temp\mount.log 2>&1 2>&1
net use * /delete /y >> C:\temp\mount.log 2>&1 2>&1
net use s: /delete >> C:\temp\mount.log 2>&1 2>&1
net use s: \\%SHARESERVER%\%SHARENAME% /user:%SHARESERVER%\%SHAREUSER% /persistent:yes %SHAREPASSWD% >> C:\temp\mount.log 2>&1 2>&1
Create a scheduled task, which execute the bat file at "any user logon". And very importent; Change the user/group to SYSTEM.
This will the mounted network drive visable from BeoPort/Player
I'm glad I am a BeoWorld member to be advised there is a new version of BeoPort/BeoPlayer, I'm still wondering why B&O doesn't make any update automatically, as all other programmes & softwares on my PC do; it would be so much more practical to have an auto-update, or at least a message on the screen "BeoPort is now available in version 5, do you wish to update your version?"🙂

I was prompted for a Beoport update after updated my Beomedia. That message you say appeared in my PC screen.
After updating the source "A.AUX" is only visible when mouse rolls over...
Any hints?
