I'll think it is the official release...I had beta so can not see any changes from that....

 

I'm going to wait until I get some feedback first before I update. Things are going quite well for me just now and I don't want to upset anything!

All the best with it.

 

My Horizon cannot find the update :(

Been waiting patiently since January, so this is immensely frustrating. It's been reinstalled via the menu, plugged directly into the router via cable and default configuration on the router. No dice.

I'm going to run a packet capture on this, but if anyone knows where I can download the update that would be really helpful. I see it's connecting to portal.beo.com, and the packet capture will reveal more, but damn this is annoying.

On the support page it's still the old firmware that's up for grabs.

Just downloaded new update on Horizon, now on version QM153E.0.4.0.115, dated 2017-03-22

Let's see what is new in relation to the "beta" version that was pushed through by the dealer.

Received a mail from BeoCare today that my beta-version which would fix the nasty speakergroup/bass management bug was ready for my TV and requested to test the software...

Installed it tonight... and... and... and... YESSS... B&O has managed to fix the bug!

QME153E.0.4.0.116 / 2017-03-24 10.28.33 IST

So... happy customer as that sound issue was a big showstopper for me!

Karel.

Finally. I hope for the general release soon.

My BV14 seems to behaving very well now!

I've had the recent update for 10 days now, so hopefully everyone's experience will be good now.....without wanting to be premature, it now feels close to a premium product...and damn does it look good

Got the general release two days ago, but haven't spent much time with it (surprising considering how desperate I was to get it!), but my limited usage seems to be improved.

Though the first thing I saw when it turned on after the update was "Google Play Services has stopped" or something :) No problems since, and Multiroom seems to be working though I have to figure out how to do it the best way - connect the speakers to the TV or the Moment?

I am on the .115 release and still not too happy with multiroom yet. The Moment uses the speakers connected with the Horizon and that is not 100%. When I start playing music from the Moment, the TV has problems starting up. Sometimes it does start, sometimes not and have to unplug power of TV to get is rebooted again.

Also there is still no possibility to adress a speaker group to the Moment from the TV menu.

Only way is to make a myButton on the remote.

When I use the MyButton first to start up the TV and te Moment, it works well but then the sound problem (no subwoofer) as Karel described occurs.

This will be fixed in the .116 software, as said by Karel. Hopefully the Multiroom function is also improved in that version.

Thanks, that is exactly the kind of issues I was vary about. I listen to music more than I watch TV, so I think the right solution for me is to connect the speakers to the Moment, and join the Moment to the Horizon when there's a movie on. But I guess I will not be able to use surround sound then?

Correct, no surround sound if you connect your speakers to the Moment. Also you will miss the sound processing of the Horizon and that seems a bit of a los, because you really can tweak the sound very well to fit into the room situation. Connect your speakers to the TV and use them with the Moment, even not perfect yet, it is working and I'm sure within due time it will work 100%. With the BV11/V1 it was working perfectly!
