Beoremote Halo can now control ML devices!

26 replies

The BLI solution has its purposes, but it's a very different approach using scene macros as triggers. However, I have a BeoVision 10 and two BeoSystem 3s that benefit from appearing as devices so that all of their sources can be listed. B&O will need to address the issue of the volume not being controlled and adding the full Beovision control screen, though.

Great news and move from B&O!

Thank you Bang & Olufsen!


Thank you, beojeff for spreading the good news. :-)

You have three ML products showing? I have three ML locations in my house but all I see in the app is the converter which does give me control of the Beosound 3000 but not of anything else.

Could you clarify what you see? And do you have multiple converters? Thanks!

@Razlaw-

I believe that you must have a separate NL/ML converter for each ML room -- just like for the B&O app if you want it controlled through the app. I no longer have any ML slave rooms.

Great news!

Now if only NL/ML sources would show on my Beosound Stage via the App and BeoRemote One.....

Oh, Razlaw.... I have NINE NL/ML converters! All nine of them appear as available to be added to the list of controlled devices. There's a limit of only 10 devices that the Halo can control, though. So I have to choose appropriately.

I have converters for the following:

1. BeoVision 10 integrated with BeoSound Moment (bedroom)

2. BeoSystem 3 (kitchen)

3. BeoSystem 3 (den)

4. BeoSystem 4500 (dining room)

5. BeoSound 4 (dining room)

6. BeoSystem 2300 (bedroom)

7. BeoSystem 5500 (living room)

8. BeoSound 9000 (living room)

9. BeoCenter 2 & BeoSound 5 (living room)

Of these, I only had to do a power cycle on the converters for the BeoSound 4 and BeoSystem 4500 to get them dark black and not grey in the list of devices that could be added.

What shows in the app? 9 converters or the individual ML products?
Also, what sort of control of the BS5 do you have in the app and by the Halo?

@Razlaw-

The converters show up in the app. I've named the converters to correspond to the ML devices that are controlled.
