Hello, can anyone explain in layman’s terms how to rename albums and tracks ripped and named unknown by my Beosound 5 ?
I can strap my windows 10 laptop in but I think I need some old B&O software on it - I loath ITunes so won’t let it near my pc
its frustrating to not have all the albums and tracks chronologically listed !
thanks in advance, Paul
Hey Paul
Did you have any luck with Barry's suggestion.
I'm about to take delivery of a Beosound 5 with CD ripper and 1TB drive and i'm going to want to load all my CD's wtih album art...
Fingers crossed this software works...
BUT i have no idea how to connect this all up.
Will wait till i get the unit and see how I go.

The CD Ripper is not worth much today. What I have done on a completely blank BS5, is just using iTunes to rip my CD's, and add album covers/tagging, and then just upload the folders to the BM5 via network. In iTunes it is easy to get an overview of the tagging/album covers, to verify they are correct before transferring to BM.

Looks like sound advice from Weeby although I am not a fan of Itunes controlling my laptop.
With Bliss I havent yet discovered how to get the thread to my server/BS5 memory so am a bit stuck.
Good luck, P
Is the CD ripper of no value becuase there is no longer a licence iwth gracenote? or is it of no value because it's actually no good.
I wonder if there is there a way to direct the beosound 5 to talk to bliss music directly?
Can't wait to get my beosound 5 but is sounds like i'm in for a bit of work to get the best out of it.

iTunes is not controlling anything ;) Yes, some things are Apple stuff, but if just used for CD ripping/tagging, I have no concerns or observations.
I just find it very easy to get an overview of all my albums with covers and tagging, and then just copy directories to Beomaster.

Yes, CD ripper will rip music from the CD, without any tagging or way of knowing what it is after ripping. It is the connection with CDDB/Gracenote that is no longer working.
I had a CD Ripper for mine, sold it because it was of no use for me because of this issue. Would never pay 1 cent extra for a system advertised with ripper as bonus feature. Sorry if that is bad news for you.
I don't know if Taggers can tag music already ripped as "Album1/track01" without the CD to read from.

Does this mean that BLISS can live on the Beosound 5 1TB hard drive?
