Command line interface for iTunes/N.MUSIC
in Beo-Mac · Nov 15, 2011 15:38A few days ago I discovered an old Unix shell script for basic command line control of iTunes via AppleScript. It was written in 2001 but, amazingly, it still works with the current iTunes version. The original script ca…
BeoCenter 2 EOL
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 14, 2011 14:17I just happened to read the Peter Pans Hjemmebio thread in the Nordic forum section. His latest post has a link to a recent BeoNEWS video (in English) where it is announced that BeoCenter 2 has reached end-of-life. Appar…
AXEL OR THE SOUNDSMITH? THE DEFINITIVE MMC4 QUESTION........
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 14, 2011 13:56I can't compare, but I had the same problem two months ago and went with Axel (Schürholz, at Schallplattennadeln.de ). I upgraded to a rebuilt MMC2 with a Shibata needle – and I'm extremely happy with my choice!
How to Tag a Classical Music Collection optimised for display on the Beosound 5
in Beo5 & Beo6 · Oct 17, 2011 08:23I forgot to add a few interesting links I've come across while ripping my CD collection lately: MusicBrainz Classical Style Guide, http://musicbrainz.org/doc/Classical_Style_Guide Taming iTunes for Classical Music, http:…
How to Tag a Classical Music Collection optimised for display on the Beosound 5
in Beo5 & Beo6 · Oct 17, 2011 07:25Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I've been thinking a bit about this myself, as I've just started to digitize my own CD collection. I don't have a BS5 yet, but I decided to rip and tag everything into both App…
Beolink 7000 Remote Controller
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 22, 2011 03:52If you have a Beocenter 2300 capable of two-way infrared communication (type 27xx, produced 1992-93), you should be all set — regardless of the capabilities of the MX 4000 and the DVD 1. Connect the audio and video syste…
Delay when activating Mac based music
in Beo-Mac · Aug 2, 2011 06:00Since you already know the answer (disk drive needs time spinning up), and this time lag drives you nuts, I suggest that you disable any computer and disk sleep options on your MacMini. The power consumption is pretty lo…
Beolink 7000 battery
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 27, 2011 03:32I replaced my BL7000 battery with a newly made kit which I acquired from Thorsten Janz in Germany (eBay handle: netsroht66). It works like a charm. As I just discovered that he offers this item again, I'll post a direct …
LOL !!
in eBay - the right way! · Jul 15, 2011 07:22[quote user="Dillen"] Ridiculous. I wonder what the price was new. [/quote] I managed to dig up some marketing blurb and a list price of £1,195 for the 1.5 meter cable. The part on experimenting with revised internal wir…
Beocenter 2500/2300 AUX
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 1, 2011 01:47A quick check in the service manual shows that the answer is yes – you will indeed get both line level output (Playback Left and Right) and line level input (Recording Left and Right). The AUX on the BC2500/2300 also has…
Beocord V8000 technical/sub menu to work with beolink 1000
in General Discussion & Questions · May 21, 2011 03:55I don't think this is a configuration problem. Basic controls, like wind and rewind, shouldn't be dependent on menus. However, skipping tracks on a B&O video recorder should be with the [Δ] and [∇] keys, not the [>>] and…
BeoPlayer/BeoPort/BeoSound 5 & gapless music: where are we?
in General Discussion & Questions · May 20, 2011 03:37[quote user="Stan"] You can use FLAC now, for gapless, lossless in addition to WMA. [/quote] I may have missed something here. Can you confirm that FLAC is now also supported for gapless playing by the BeoSound 5? There …
Ouverture serial number
in General Discussion & Questions · May 15, 2011 16:23With a serial number starting in 14, it would have been manufactured in 2000. See topic How to read Year of Manufacture from Serial Number .
beovision 1 & beo4
in General Discussion & Questions · May 15, 2011 03:39Apologies for pointing you in the wrong direction. As may be clear by now, I don't have a BV1 myself. What I do have is a MX 4200, which should be closely related to the BV1 from a software point of view. At least I thou…
beovision 1 & beo4
in General Discussion & Questions · May 14, 2011 03:06The user manual is split into two parts. It's not in the Guide, it's in the Reference Book (page 30). You can do the adjustment with almost any B&O remote, as it's done with the help of a screen menu. See the picture bel…

Problemer med linkrum + Ouverture
in Nordic · May 5, 2011 03:53Hej, Svårt att säga vad som är fel – det kan ju eventuellt vara fråga om något slags svårdiagnosticerat kabel- eller anslutningsfel. Men eftersom du beskriver att felet uppstod när du flyttade din Ouverture, misstänker j…

LC2 faulty?
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 30, 2011 14:49Sounds extremely weird. If it reacts at all, it should react to all commands. Are you sure the problem is not with your Beo4? Or in your programming of the LC2? Otherwise, try disconnecting the LC2 from mains, and wait a…
