I have an Essence wall remote in the ensuite bathroom that is configured so that a short press plays the music from the Bedroom Moment and a long press plays the music from the living room Moment. 

I was not aware of this possibility.

How do you configure the Essence remote to do that trick?

It's all in the mapping on the NL/ML Converter. Since I rarely use TuneIn, I chose to map the "Radio" function from ML to trigger a "Music" function on the second Moment.

I was more wondering how you can set the remote to do different things dependent on "long press" or "short press".

When in IR mode, a short press on the play button sends the "RADIO" IR command while a long press on the play button send the "CD" IR command. This has always been the case.

FYI, I also tried some of the undocumented "extra" Essence remote modes to try to use an "A.AUX" command, but got strange results.

Hello Liverpolpete,

I 'm new on this forum. I read your problems and I had simular problems with my BM and BL18 + 19. Spent all evenings resetting for 2 years and found it the most unstable music system I had in more than 40 years. Finally after the update of the Moment 2weeks ago nothing was working anymore and the speakers didnt switch off anymore. Completely frustrated I called my dealer. He sent someone to upgrade the Beolabs. Now everything is working perfect for the first time in years. It appears that the software/firmware in my BL18 and 19 didnt automatically update. From now on they will. The specialist also told me (as I allready expected) that the Moment was intoduced 3 years too soon and is just right now ready for full use and enjoy. 😁

I hope it will stay this way for at least 5 years because one more issue and I'll sell everything and change to Sonos.

I have been silent for a year in posting on this forum.

But what you are referring to that is total untruth, and a B&O technician should certainly know that before he is telling this statement to you.

The Moment as a music system is unique in the world of sound hardware. It is indeed an invention of B&O, but its remarkable quality has come thanks to the unwavering insight of B&O and close cooporation of many Beoworld members.

Thanks to this never seen cooperation between factory and users, we now have a very good system that you can enjoy after all the efforts.

I do not have any knowing of another sound hardware factory in the world, who keep an intense account of the wishes of the buyer.

 

The Moment works really good now. Perfect with Timer and with Spotify connect! I hope they will release a new hardware soon with this software. Finally they did it! Thanks B&O!

Thanxs B&O????

You are paying for a good working product.

Now after 3 years the systems works flawless.

Stop thanking B&O....you paid enough money for it

Well said.  After years of being told I need to hard reset the thing every week to prevent it from getting unresponsive and that my network was responsible for all of the connection issues they finally fixed the software.  I love the Moment now, but my God what horrendous customer service.

I agree with you Koning. I spent more than 10k for an instable system. So I expect no problems for the next 5 years ! 2 years Of frustations is enough for such an amount of money. I recently read a review of someone who received paperclips for his birthday to reset his BM every party he gave. People defending a system that can not work continuously without the help and coorporation of the forums members must be B&o guys. Please admit failures !! 😕

I agree with you guys. But finally (3years to late) they Delivered a product that is now working as it should have been done from start.... My next big software failiure is my my Full Fat Range Rover. Maybe they guys that they fired at B&O has been started to work at Land Rover.... :-( It seems like faulty softwares is an never ending story...
