Beomaster5 map Music is “read only”.

[Joris Allewijn]

Hello BM5 users,

I want to copy music from my NAS to BM5 share “Music”. I cannot drag&drop or copy music from my NAS. I cannot use Beoconnect on my Windows11 PC: it does not work after install.

I see that there is indicated “V” READ ONLY in the map BM5 music. Can I safely remove this without damage to BM5?

Hi Joris, I’d be careful about removing the read-only attribute directly, as it’s worth confirming first whether it’s a Windows permissions issue or a restriction on the BM5 share itself. Check that you’re accessing the correct network share and that the account you’re using has write permissions. If the original BeoConnect software isn’t working on Windows 11, accessing the share through File Explorer may be another option, provided the BM5 is configured to allow writing. Has anyone confirmed whether the Music folder is supposed to be writable on the BM5, or whether a specific user account is required?
