I am still on 2.0.66 and no new update available ..

A few people (who were among the first to get beta of 2.0) will have started to get the 2.1 beta, as they are on an earlier track we have in our labs. Most people here will have 2.066 until after we do the public release.

That explains it :) Thanks..

And must I just say one thing. I am very impressed by the Moment.

It is totally what I expected, the only (obvious)thing I have found is that some of my album covers in the "Collection" are missing, even though all albums under the given artist(with no cover) has album covers. All albums on Moment are from Deezer for now.

Otherwise I am very happy, and looking forward to the public release,

I am in the Beta too, and must say, more than happy. Only issue I had, whas that the harvesting of my library, (140gig musisc), took so many days. I made a factory reset and then added small parts at a time, max 40gig. Then it only took me a day. The only thing that annoyed me, was that there was constantly a message in the right down corner, which says "harvesting etc...."

When I went to Englisch language, I did not get that message, till this morning. When I tapped on tje JB, this message whas there again. Does it occurs randomly or is there a reason why is sometimes does occurs and sometimes not?

 

 

Hej Athos. Super to hear you are enjoying 2.0.

We agree that the bottom right hand corner is 'too wordy' right now, but have erred on the side of showing 'too much information' while maturing the software. The more information the testers and the developers can have, the faster we can diagnose and resolve issues. Once we have the successful launch of 2.0 under our belts we intend to slightly tone the amount of messages down so that we show the ones that matter, when it matters.

Ah - 2.0 made the Moment great again!

One funny observation, it's connected via wifi to an Avant-75, is that the Moment display lights up when I turn on the TV. When I turn off the TV, the display of the moment remains on - If I then select an audio source and turn off, the display shuts down, too. After turning off the TV, the display of the Moment remains on for hours. Is there something in the setup I have missed? Pre-2.0 this never happened.

You have not missed anything. This gets fixed in an upcoming release. 

I haven't been part of the beta programme, but have followed this thread with intense interest and increasing anticipation. For the most part in the two years I have had my Moment I have controlled it with the BeoMusic app, because of the shortcomings in the interface on the Moment itself. I am now really looking forward for this to change, and judging from the comments in this thread I understand that I have something to look forward to. So much, in fact, that the last two days I have been manually checking for software updates on my Moment at least ten times a day, since I saw Lyle's remark that the update would go live in week 9. 😳

So: any chance of being told when or which day the update goes live for us non-beta folks? Or will I have to check ten times today as well? 🙂
