You got a Mac or a PC?
You need a BS3000 onwards to work with Beoport, not sure of the sw level. Categorically it will not work with 2300/2500 systems except through the AUX input, if at all
...a mad scientist ...
Someone called me?
That's why I was asking if you had a Mac. I developed an equivalent of BeoPlayer for Mac, that works with the Beoport and is in fact a lot more powerful.
LinkPlayer has a mode that can be used in 2 specific setups that allow the use on the Beoport with older devices. I use it with a Beosound 2500 without problem!
Do you already have the Beoport box? Do you have a Beovision?
Hi,
I have a beoport (actually it is a Beoling PC2 type1678) and I wanted to stream music from my NAS via a computer to my system.
I wanted to connect my Beolab 2000 but actuall was not able .....
I have an old iMac G4 do you think I can use it with the LinkPlayer ?!
Or is it possible at all to use the beoport without having a beomaster5 or Ouverture 3000 3200 ?! just connecting a Beolab 2000/3500.
Do you know how to make the setup ?!
Your help is appreciated.

Orcsi,
BeoPort can work as an audio master, if you have no other B&O device connected to the Masterlink network, you simply connect your Lab 2000 or 3500 to the BeoPort's Masterlink input, and that's it. You'll have to setup BeoPort to option 2. I had this setup during months.
It will work with a PC & the original BeoPlayer/BeoPort software, or with a Mac & Linkplayer (not BM Link, which needs an audio master).
Philippe can tell you which Mac OS works with Linkplayer, or you can make a search on this website to get all the info.🙂
Thanks you for the info....
Probably is my mistake but when I connect the Beoport to the PC via USB and audio cable and the Beolab2000 to the Beoport via ML cable nothing really happens .... maybe it is because on the Beolab there is no N.Music/N.Radio button ?! On the Beo4 how can I activate the N.Music/N.Radio button ... when I push list it is not on the list ....
This is my first time when I try to put together a B&O system which is connected via ML, but will not give up ..
Anyway thanks for your help, it is really appreciated.
Bye,
