Linder - I have got my Beosound 5 working as an Airplay speaker via my iPad, iPhone and iTunes on my Mac. Just purchased the adapter at the link below then hooked it up to an Airport Express. Now I use the Airplay feature from link rooms so I can see and select my audio and then use the Beosound 5/Beomaster 5 when in the same room as the device.

The adapter is here:

Hope this helps.

It is a great idea.  I'm going to try it.  Thanks

B&O will release an APP (a player) for BeoSound 5 this summer...

I wish i had more details but thats all i know :(

That's very good news

I'd recommend using PlugPlayer for the iPhone/iPad.  Its the simplest to set up and it doesn't look like a 10 year old designed it.  I spend a good portion of the day yesterday playing around with a number of uPnP remotes and this is the one I happen to like the best!

I found an iPhone app called iMediacontrol. It is working very well. Even turns the B and O equipment on.

Yesterday I received the new update:

This afternoon i started net music:. After the SW update many CD's are split into two or three parts. Sometimes with the same cover, or three parts with two covers. The last week it did work very well, but I begin to loose my confidence in it. I did not expect from B&O that a SW update ruins the music library. 

I am very disappointed about this one week old BS5: my feelings are getting worse and worse about this machine. I begin to regret that I not have bought a BS9000: just plug and play.

After updating my BS/BM5 I missed some covers.

Solution was:  Deleting the "database"  (OF COURSE NOT THE MUSIC-FILES) helped.

Afterwards BS/BM 5 rebuilds a new database from scratch.

Vienna,

Thanks for the info. This afternoon my dealer will visit me and see if it can be solved: i will tell them your information. Did you also upload from i tunes?
