The Beosound Moment Beta 2.x thread

Heard a rumor that the GUI will be tweaked further in coming updates, as well as that face recognition will be added. Not something that will happen in the nearest future as I understood it then probably in the roadmap together with Spotify Connect and Googlecast.

Face recognition would be used to provide profiles for different users, so that mood wheel give a more personalized experience. To what I can see the Jukebox include a camera, so why not.

Do you have to pay for a Deezer subscription to use Deezer on the Moment?

Hi Hiort.

 

Resetted the moment but I won't take the collection from my nas, I don't understand why (the beomusic app works fine using it on my other speakers)

Are you sure your NAS is not having dropouts, or lost packets on the network. Stuck at 10% or 1% is not being able to shake hands with the DLNA server and NAS.

Could be anything, even a bad network connection or bad cable....

What about the album covers on the BeoSound Moment ?

I think the Moment shows the Deezer embbeded cover for the streaming music, but what about your personnal collection stored on the NAS ?

If a JPEG picture is placed in the album folder, does the Moment show it, like the BeoSound 5 ?

Or must the picture be embbeded in each song ?

I remember someone said the cover was not always the same than the JPEG picture and could be confusing.

And finally, if an artist is present both in your own collection and in your Deezer favorites, is it easy to find it ?

I always embed my correct Album covers in all songs, thinking future proof... 

I you have an album in Deezer and in your collection, you get an easy view now on the Jukebox. The name of your server/nas appears beneath the Album/Artist. Easy to see if its coming from your collection or Deezer's.

The Moment leverages the TAG album cover published by the DLNA server. It stores this information in its DB in the form of URL pointing to the album cover image stored on the NAS. It also enriches the track info with the artist image Gracenote link.

The search screen splits the search output in two parts, Local collection and Deezer, so very easy to identify.
