Did you try: in Set-up of the Core ; Link to other products; the primairy product set to the Moment?

Then the Moment sources should be visible as linked product in the Core.

Yes, this is the way I configured it first place.

Starting a Moment source from the Core is a no brainer when properly configured.

What we are talking here, and what happened to my setup at some point and that I cannot reproduced anymore, is to start a source from the Moment which has no connection to any speaker, and have the sound going through the linked product, i.e. the Core, which has the speakers connected to. An integrated like behavior.

I just want to clarify what people are experiencing as to make sure my issue is the same.

I've factory reset my Moment.

Twonky Server music displays database artwork correctly internally.

Deezer displays artwork correctly on all menus EXCEPT on the playlist screen.

Is this the Gracenote issue everyone is having or is the one in this thread more serious (no artwork anywhere)?

Is there anyone out there that currently has Deezer artwork (of any kind) actually showing up in the playlist view?

Michael: The Gracenote issue impacts two things, (1) the DLNA artist's image that is displayed in the tiles of Moment's JukeBox Collection screen and (2) the Moment's Moodwheel inner ring.

(1) DLNA artist's image is no longer fetched from Gracenote. Impact: If you are not configured for DLNA Expert mode, then artist's image is replaced by an artist's album cover image, assuming there is one for the selected album (I don't precisely know the album selection logic, but it could be the first in the alphanumeric sort order). If you are running in Expert mode and if you don't have the artist image available in your DLNA server Photos (assuming your DLNA server services Photos on top of Music), then the artist's tile is deseperatly grey ...

(2) Tracks' Mood are no longer fetched from Gracenote. Impact: The Moodwheel inner ring is all about YOUR tracks, your DLNA track as well as your Deezer favorite tracks. During the Moodwheel process, the Moment used to fetch mood from Gracenote for each of your tracks and to place them accordingly in the Moodwheel inner ring. As this process is broken, the inner ring should now be grey and ineffective.

Note: Artist image must not be confused with album artwork (or cover)

That helps.

So in the "currently playing" screen I see album artwork from my DNLA Twonky library.

However,  Deezer shows no artwork whatsoever in the "currently playing" screen.  Obviously not artist images from Gracenote, but also none from the album artwork which appears on the other jukebox screens.

Wouldn't it simply display album images from Deezer here?

Does anyone else see Deezer album artwork displayed here or is this the new normal?

 

I should not say it's the new normal 🙁 but I do get it also on some songs with Deezer.

It makes no sense to worry about this, years ago the Moment was a very nice B&O product that was never well developed.

After being one of the beta testers at that time, I spent an incredible amount of time trying to help them with the product, and I wasn't alone here, different forum members did the same.

I kept this up until I wondered what I was actually doing, buying an expensive product with my own hard earned money and now helping to make it work, am I gone crazy now.

I stepped away from B&O.

Your not the only one Chris.

Just saw in another thread that this feature indeed is broken with the current moment firmware, but is still working with prior firmware. I’ve requested a bugfix (as we know less likely) and a FW rollback (which i anticipate will god this for me).

That’s pretty cool for me to get this working. Even learnt that i can integrate the moment with an ML/NL. This will allow me to finally “join” my beovision via the B&O app (selecting “+” at moment, which is integrated to a ML/NL connected to a BV.

Let’s see how this plays out. Fingers crossed!
