2 Halo’s in my setup.
I use them often. The reason I use them often: the BLI programmable buttons.

I can select a lot of different sources connected to and/or integrated in different Netlink en BeocontrolLink devices on a lot of devices: for example BLC Line In connected BS5e or BG4000 directly to my Shape or Beoplay A6 or BV Harmony.
I can link/join products with the wheel and one button.

I can put devices on standby even if I am in a different room.

The batteries, normally hold about 6 days on a charge.

Only the B&o app has similar abilities, but there is no other remote capable to control the system this way.

So to me extremely viable.

the difficulty is how to integrate the BS9000 with the Avant and how to start the BS9000 with a remote and/or B&o app. Not all devices are compatibel.

if the Avant is not an Android version, it is possible to connnect,
if Armit has another NL-device in his Network the solution would be obvious,
if an IR eye and speakers are connected to the Beolink converter NL/ML (BLC) it should be possible.

I just bought my first B&O system, a Beosystem 4500. I didn’t get speaker cables and need some help on where I can buy the correct 4 pin cables. I live in Canada so North American recourses would be helpful. Thank you and I can’t wait to use my childhood dream system.

if you do not use the MCL system the you could use the regular 2pin DIN plug.

I just joined the BV11 to the Beoplay 6.

Playing (dlna) music I could skip to the next and previous track with a BR1 (ir).

Although I do not use TuneIn anymore, skipping between radio stations on B&o Radio worked with the BR1.

Note: the BP6 is not integrated with the BV11.

It suddenly stopped talking to the Theatre, I then did a factory reset and now it will not pair to the Theatre again. I have followed all the instructions. The only thing I haven’t done is a factory reset on the theatre as I just got all the settings sorted, I wish it had a “upload settings” function so that you don’t have to start again. Is there any thing else the remote can pair with for me to test? ie phone?

did you already “un-pair” the Beoremote One in the settings of the Theatre? and restart from there again?

And – P.Mute ought to be a universal function, because it also is needed, if you listen to music only via the ATV or from the mediaplayer (or other music apps) of the tv.

your BR1 doesn’t show the Show Picture command, as stated above (= P.Mute)

The player has a somewhat decent UI – however, I do not want to look at that screen the whole album through.

The BR1 “List” feature doesn’t show the command “Show Picture” (as the Harmony or Eclipse)?

Your player doesn’t have an “AUDIO only” setting?

This is what I currently do (actually right now), if I want to listen to a CD (from the System 6500): I put in the Cd in the tray of the 6500, went to my M3 (using the app) and choose CD. Then I could expand to the Theatre. When I go back to the Theatre (in the app) it shows the converter. See pictures. So it is possible to make the connection. I can even skip tracks with the remote. In addition: turning off with the remote turns off the Theatre – long press turns of everyhing including the BM/CD6500……as should be. What I mean is, that they just have to make it possible to make the settings in the Theatre, that allows for the direct access from there and using the BROne. MM

Correct, that is the way already for a long time (as described before). But the “Product Integration”/”Linked to other product” must be reintroduced to the Theatre (as f.e. the BV11/V1). That was the way to remote control linked sources!

or they must find an alternative way ………

Sorry, I don’t think I follow – obviously the products need to be connected and the BLC allows for that between NL and ML. If they are not connected you can’t access them across products. Is that what you mean?

You want to start a source connected to a BLC with a remote on for example a BV11 or BV Harmony or a Beosound Core or Theatre…….. is this always possible?

How is this set up? What is possible, what not. Of course the sources have to be connected to be played.
But how are they connected, integrated and accessed?

this what I address

I can’t imagine that a BLI should be needed – to me it seems more a function that has not yet been implemented with the Mozart platform. Let us keep asking them to do so! MM

to my knowledge, only if a BLC can be integrated, direct access to BLC sources is possible with a remote (for example BV11, Beosound Core/35/Essence mkII ); no integration then no direct access with a remote (for example BV Harmony/Eclipse, Beosound Balance, Beolab 28).

Sounds like your system is working the same as mine. Perhaps the Theatre does not directly support the converter.

remark about joining sources connected to the BLC (Beolink NL/ML converter):

for example: start the BS3000 CD which is a linked source on the Beoplay A6. So the A6 is starting to reproduce the music of the CD. To  join in other devices one should expect that joining the A6 would do the trick. But not all devices will follow.

To overcome this phenomenon, change from the A6 to the BLC as active device in the home screen of the B&o app. Then click the “link to” icon on the app and join the other devices to the BLC.

Note: I do not know with certainty this will work for the Theatre also.

 

With Beoliving and Beoremote Halo, I expect direct access from the Theatre to a BLC connected Beosound CD should be possible (as with all Beolink and BeoControllink devices).

Hi, I have a BV11 in one room and a Beosound Core in the other. the BV 11 is setup to borrow Music, Radio from the Core. When I call “link-music” or “link-radio”, it starts, but I cannot change channel or go to the next track. I can only play/pause. Also from the Bang&Olufsen app, I can’t do these operations either, nor can I queue a new song or change radio station if I’m controlling the V1. I can control the Core, but then the speakers in the other room start too. I’ve just move from a Masterlink system to this Network link system and I do not yet know all the subtleties. Philippe

why do you start the sources with “link”.

presumably it will work normal if you start the Core sources on the BV11 without the “link”

apart from one (quite annoying) change! – I now MUST start radio from the app.

did you change your BLC settings (“IR Mapping”) accordantly?

[Carolpa]

depending on your needs you got two options.

1. remove the Ouverture and go back to the first discussed setup (BLC A.Master) or
2. buy a PL to AUX cabel and connect the Essence to the AUX of the Ouverture

BV7 is set to V.OPTION = 2 (confirmed by the flashing standby led). Ouverture is set to A.OPTION = 0 (as shown in the BV7-55 manual). BLC is set to ML rôle: source center. In “Sources visible on ML” configuration page, only N.RADIO and N.MUSIC are available. N.RADIO is configured for Essence LineIn (sound from my PC) and N.MUSIC for Essence TuneIn. Feedback:

• A.MEM commands the Ouverture’s tape.
• N.RADIO: Ouverture’s phono
• N.MUSIC: Ouverture’s tape 2
• On Essence (through mobile application), DTV source selected: no sound.

did you check the N.Music, N.Radio boxes on the BLC “experienced mapped to NL” page? And did you set both accordantly on the “IR Mapping” page?

addition:
try the setting proposed, but on second thoughts I wouldn’t be surprised you will have introduced another conflict. Giving the N.Music command to the BV7, ML will instruct the Ouverture to start A.Tape2, whereas the BLC is instructed to start the Essences TuneIn.

[Carolpa]

BV7 should be in option 2. Place it in stby; then press List / Stby on your Beo4; press list until you see V(ideo) Option in the display; then press 2. Notify if the BV7 has responded with a short off/on of the stby light.

adding the Ouverture changed the ball game completely. Now if you give a A.MEM (=A.Tape) command which should start? The BLC with TuneIn or the A.Tape of the Ouverture.
and the ML chain does already has a A.Master and a V.Master  so the BLC cannot be set to A.Master anymore! So the only option in your setup left is Source Center.  So program the BLC (set f.e. N.Music as TuneIn of your Essence)

but in truth I prefer WiSA because always on, rather than me looking each time I change listening position to see if the green light appears.

Always on can also wired be established, just a setup thing!

[Carolpa]

a. what is the option set for the BV7? option 2?

b. there is no other Radio source (set) in ML and/or NL?

c. The BS5 is disconnected from the system?

d. does TuneIn already play on the Essence when you start Radio

[Carolpa]

try, set the “connect to (primary)” to “Beolink Converter NL/ML”, but the more probable cause: did you set the “IR mapping”?
