On HomeKit integration, there is no specific plan at the moment but we are looking into it.

Any news on Apple HomeKit integration?

I manage all my smart devices at home via Apple HomeKit (e.g. Nuki Smart Lock, Philips hue lights, Netatome and Eve sensors). It would be great to integrate my Bang&Olufsen devices (e.g. setting a cinema mood, or turning everything off when locking the door) respectively to control selected devices with the BeoRemote One.

But as long as Beoliving does not integrate into Apple HomeKit it makes no sense for me to buy it, or? 

Same here. HomeKit support would be essential for me. 

Add me to that list!

Netatmo Cameras, Netatmo Thermostat and Valves plus Legrand with Netatmo light switches and plugs. BV Eclipse and BV 10, plus several Beosound speakers and no way to integrate them 😠

@Stefan, sorry, we misunderstood you v1.2.4 should solve the DLNA content browsing. The fix is not related with BeoMaster5 - BeoSound5 integration. 

 

Ok, so you are working on a fix ?

thanks

Stefan

I just tested the new 1.30 version with no luck at all. Album browsing still not working, even categories Artists/Albums/Tracks are not shown anymore as in previous versions. Also KNX shades status info still missing.

I`m back on Beolink2 app, but happy to test coming versions...

Hello @Stefan

You are subscribed to the "beta version" of the application, v1.3.0 is in an early stage version. If you want, we can remove you from the test group. In any case, please, send all feedback related to the trial version using testflight or support@khimo.com.

Thanks for helping us!

Best,
Khimo's team.

@Alsfeld @Solidsnake @Styrizo

We can't make any promises right now, but thanks for your feedback, we are always reviewing our roadmap and your feedback is important to us.

After MANY months, you still do not have the following:

1. Support for Ikea's home automation system. Just make it happen.

2. Proper documentation to explain how you're re-integrating ML support via the driver for MLGW/BLGW. I want to see how this is done before I even consider upgrading to BLI.

It's been far too long! I'm losing faith in Khimo as a B&O partner.

Hi!

I recently installed a BeoLiving Intelligence and I am using it in Essential mode. Currently I mainly use it to control all lights (Philips Hue) in the house.

I want to set Scenes for some of my products to start at a specific time. For example my BV12 in the living room should start at 19:30 on channel 1 and volume 20. The Beosound Stage should start at 07:00 to play TuneIn with volume 2.

All of the above is working well except for the volume. The products don't start with the volume I specified in the Scene, they seem to start with the volume that the product was playing when it was turned off. So it is not even using the default start volume.

What do I have to do so that the products will start with the volume that I have set in my Scene?

Thank you!

Miki

Hello @Stefan
..If you want, we can remove you from the test group....

Thanks for helping us!

Best,
Khimo's team.

maybe just another misunderstanding - "happy to test coming versions" does NOT mean, that I want to be "removed" from the test group...

And ofcourse, I sent reports and screenshots... via testflight, but sometimes this communication didn`t work, but I will try harder...

Thanks for letting me help you

Hello Khimo Team,

I have expanded my setup a lot the last two months thanks to the Fibaro driver. It is now two days that I bumped on an issue with a Fibaro Roller Shutter 3 and I need your help. Lowering the shade works like a charm. Stopping the shade also works flawlessly. The problem is with raising the shade. If the shade is not all the way down then the raise command sent from the BLI to the HC2 gives the following message "ID 89: Application rejected request". If the raise button of the HC2 application is used then the shade is raised without any problem.

 

Thanks in advance
