Hi there,

When I plugged in my latest BS Essence MK1 (used, of course, bought this week), I first reset it.
Then I connected to its web page.

A software update was offered (currently version 3513) but I declined, as I wanted to test it and do the configuration first.

Unfortunately, the software update is no longer possible and the message "The product software is up to date" is displayed in the dedicated page.

However, using the possibility to update from a file, I think I can manage. But I don't have this file and I couldn't find it on the internet...

Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)


Do you know where I can get it?

Many thanks.

Take care,

Tux

Bonjour Tux

la dernière version disponible pour l’Essence mk1 est la 4189.

L’Essence mk1 est un produit qui n’est plus supporté par B&O et pour l’utiliser, il va falloir jongler un peu…

Il faut avoir un portable Apple pour utiliser AirPlay vu qu’il n’y a pas ChromeCast, TuneIn fonctionne en partie (mais pas toutes les radios !) et pour le DLNA, il faut utiliser d’autres applications que celle de B&O.

Il y a un fil de discussion où l’on parle de la mise à jour manuelle sur le forum :
