Hi, Sal

Here is  the answer to your questions hope it will help you.

1. Yes. as long as you use beomusic app. this apps will give u the oportunity to select which server u want to use.  try to navigate your beomusic  and learned how to use it. but remember all bno unit must be in same network as your nas storage. or whatever server you use as long as it was a dlna certified. 

2. you must download the beomusic apps to your phone.  connect you phone or mac pc to network where u connected bno unit and your nas storage.

they should be connected to same  network, then try to navigate your beomusic apps  the media service will be visible its content using that apps.

3.In moments case you can stream  music both wifi and bluetooth  but the essence case it was wifi only

4.you must first Identify the exact model of your bno tv. because there  is different kind  of bv-11   or you can give the serial number  of the tv so that i will check if its  capable of link speaker via network.

5. yes.

6. in moments case u can use beo remote one the latest remote of bno. set the remote to  beo 4 audio  in order to control  the beosound moments  in case of essence   you can only control it via remote control if you  connect it with I.R. sensor   other than that it is impossible to control it using  bno remote control.

There are no difference in BV11 that has to do with the question from the poster. All will be able to have Beosound moment connected and let Moment use the speakers. I have that setup. On the screen you see what is played (but no coverart).

4. Let’s say I have a Moment or Essence in a different room, but on the same network, ie. they’re netlinked to the Beovision 11 which has a pair of speakers connected to it. What do I need to do in order to listen to music from the speakers connected to the Beovision 11, and exactly what, if anything will show on the Beovision 11 screen?

You can do a setup so that you e.g. press radio on the remote to play "TuneIN" or Musik to play Deezer. Screen on Beovision will show what channel and music played. No cover art.

Hi, Hiort.

Thanks  for your  shared Idea  and your right.  im just  want to have the serial number  of  the tv  make  a actual programing on the set up. because i was just confuse if it is 11- 40. 46, or 55.

Hiort is right - what matters is the actual software running on the tv - not the screensize.

6. Let’s say I have both an essence and a Moment, how would I control both from the same remote, that is, what function key / button would I require for the Essence, which for the Moment? Or would one keypress operate both?

I assume, that you mean from the physical remote (Beo4/BeoRemoteOne) not the app!

Usually when you have both (Moment/Essence), you would have them in seperate rooms.

Since the Beo4/BeoRemoteOne uses ir for controlling, you would (normally) only be controlling one of these at the time.

Note: the Essence would in that case need the extra ir-receiver for ir-controlling.

However, if you mean control these from the BV11 via one of the remotes, it is different.

You don't control the Moment (or the Essence), you control the sources, that are on the NL-network (and that are connected to the tv).

You will have to set up (as Hiort wrote above) these sources via the 'product connection' menu and you must map the wanted sources (e.g. the Tune-in radio from the Moment) to a 'button' of your own choice. Most people would use the 'radio button/keystroke' for that. This means, that (all done) you will just have to push 'radio' to listen to Tune-IN from the Moment.

You do exactly the same to get access to other sources of the Moment/Essence, when they are network-linked.

Hope this helps!

1. Can the Moment or Essence be connected to two servers at once (ie. Twonky on the Mac Mini and Plex on the NAS. I don’t need either device to consolidate the media or anything like that, but it would be nice if they could.

...

That’s all for now. Thanks for all your help!

Hi Sal,

Maybe there is a missunderstanding, In my experience the BS Moment can not be connected to two different servers at the same time. You have to choose a (one!!) server in the settings. When you select a Server (DLNA/Twonky...) the Moment will start the processing of your files (about 1 hour per 1000 tracks). When you change the server you have to start the whole process again. You can not switch between the servers without a day-eating processing between.
