Sooooo cool ! 😐

Really lovely integration with the system.
I would buy one if it were available...even as a kit.

 

That's great Henryk !!

 

Any plan for DLNA streaming ?

Excellent idea! I should build something like that into my BeoSound 9000 when the CD mechanism finally fails. It can just spin the discs for visual effect while the music sources come from stored MP3 and lossless files stored within.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for good words.

Ralf,
I’m not sure what B&O app does (I don’t have it) but if whatever receives its inputs can produce datalink commands BeoModern will work with it just fine. It accepts both “old” and “new” datalink formats and as long as master unit can address aux device, they will be friends :)

cooldude,
In theory you could build it. I shared all files, code, hardware info etc. It will require a bit of love to build but I think hard part is done :)

mauro,
Since I don’t have any DLNA sources I never envisage integration with it. If DLNA protocol is open or there are some clients available on Linux it should be fairly easy integration. Inside BeoModern there is Raspberry Pi that is heavily underutilized for what it is asked to do at the moment. It can certainly do more if needed.

Cheers,
Henryk

WONDERFUL project!!!!!

Congratulations great idea superb execution!!! 

Great job! Bravo!

Nice manual !!!! 

 

I made a similar system, with less features (only DAB+, Bluetooth Rx and Ipod control  for Ouverture) !
