TL/DR: I have solved an issue where the Beosound Essence couldn’t see the Beosound 9000 CD in the B&O app’s source list.
I am using the Beolink Converter NL/ML to share my Beosound 9000‘s CD drive to my NL devices (three Beosound Essence MK2, one Beovision V1/40). The Beosound 9000 is the only Masterlink device remaining in my house, and it is directly attached via the Masterlink cable to the Beolink Converter NL/ML I have no speakers attached to the Beosound 9000, and I do not care about IR mapping.
I had trouble configuring the Beolink Converter NL/ML correctly, I did some try+error and came to a setup that works for me (see screenshots attached).
The problem that remained was that in the B&O app, of my three Beolink Converter NL/ML devices, only one was showing the ML sources correctly (see third screenshot), the other two just showed the local Line-In source. I compared the settings of the three Beosound Essence devices and noticed that the one correctly displaying sources had set “Switzerland” as the location (which is correct in my case), while the other two had set “France”. After changing the others’ country settings to “Switzerland” and rebooting the Essence, the sources were displayed correctly.
I literally spent hours trying to figure this out, I hope this short description helps.
PS: Occasionally still, the list of sources remains empty – not even Local-In – but I presume this is a programming error in the B&O app, because a) the length of the list reflects that there should be three entries and b) closing and opening the source list again usually does the trick.
