    What are ‘non essential inputs’?

    Seeing the remaining inputs, I’d say that approximately all inputs were non essential to the eyes of the UX designers ?

    In his post on the previous page Thomas/Mr Andersen calls them “sources with a non-deterministic outcome“……whatever he means by that ?

    I wonder why this screen shows the arrow at the top by ‘tv’ and mine does not
    Because you’re running this morning beta, and the triangle was added to this afternoon’s beta ?
    Go to TestFlight to get the latest version.

    Sorry, I am running the latest/the second beta – Version: 5.4.0 (5.4.0.23092044593)
    Here is another screenshot.

    By the way, I can activate the ATV (which was the last activated source yesterday) using the play button and I can move the cursor there using left/right.
    No option for up/down – no option for standby – no option (the still missing arrow/triangle) for activating any other source of the BST.

    This makes it pretty much useless.

    are you experiencing the same / similar issue?

    No, none!
    But that may be because live tv in Denmark generally is 2.0 (they gave up on 5.1 years ago because the viewers complained).
    When I write ‘live tv’ this is from the built-in OTA-tuner/LG.

    Question – if you watch via an external box?
    Don’t you have an option to let the box send a 2.0 PCM signal?

    Thank you Thomas for reading and observing.

    I also just received the second release of the new beta and want to share for other beoworlders, what I send as beta feedback.

    ”Another new version of the beta…..
    I had hoped for some improvements.
    Opening the player (of my M3 and the BST) offers me this.
    How am I to choose a source to play?
    I can’t start any playback from here – it just says ‘tv’ or ‘Ingen kilde/No source’.

    Sure, I can go to the main page to start Netradio or access the files on my NAS.
    Or I can play from extern via Connect (Spotify/Tidal) or Airplay/Cast.
    But where are the sources that used to be hehind the 3 small dots?
    How do I (on one of my many ASE based products) access my connected CD Player, how do I access a device on the line-in of a connected device or how do you access the built-in Deezer?

    There is still a lot missing – seems that this player is for people, who access their device/s from without the B&O app and who simply wants to control which other devices to play in the multiroom setup.”

    IMG_0684IMG_0683

    This beta is – still – absolutely unuseable to me.
    Would be nice to see some roadplaning for the app.
    I am really tempted to roll this back to the previous 5.3 build ?

    N.B.
    As you can see, this is the app on my iPad.
    Whether it behaves different on other devices/iPhone I don’t know.

    By the way – it would be nice to know on which devices you are real life testing, before releasing the beta?

    P.S.
    I miss the volume ring!
    That was some of what made the app special.
    You can find these simple slider volume thingy in any other app ?

    I have to be careful what I say because of any potential NDA issue. I have reviewed the operation of the new BeoApp 5.4.0 and gave comments back on its usability and other issue.

    There’s no NDA on the Beta app ?

    So, maybe Mr10% is a beta beta tester!

     

    Yes, that is from an iPad. I am definitely not going to test that on any other of my devices…..it is far away from being finished – even for a beta version.

    It is interesting – and disturbing – that the Android version seems to be rather different from the Apple version.

    Can’t say if it looks cheap – maybe just different.
    The previous version sure had/has some quirks, but it worked for my purposes.

    It should not be that hard to update the PUC.

    Come on B&O!

    You could use one of the MyButtons for Live TV and set the startup volume somewhat higher there.

    Sure that does not solve ‘the problem’….if there is any – but it makes things less annoying.

    Please do not expect any speaker with a built-in hight/upfiring speaker from B&O…..that is not how they do it.

    Assuming that you already have an excisting (5.x or 7.x) base layer of speakers, with the right placement the BL8 can play the role of a hight (or even a ceiling) speaker.

    It means that this product can funtion as a regular Mozart based B&O multiroom speaker (in single or stereo mode) as well as a regular Beolab speaker.

    The old – now not used anymore – Powerlink connection had the datalink built in. This is not the case with newer PL connections/cables.

    Will it offer compatibility with older Hi-Fi systems, like the Beosystem 6500, allowing control of CD, Radio, and Vinyl through the remote app?

    Yes and no!

    Powerlink is an analog connection for sound, which means that the BL8 can be used with any Beomaster, Beosound, Beocenter that has Powerlink output port.
    They then act as a source for the BL8’s – these are then just speakers.
    In that case you are controlling the source device with its normal remote control e.g. a Beo4.

    Not something that can be of much use in a danish climate.

    Why, does rain in Denmark always go sideways? Maybe not for installation on a North Sea oil platform… A drain plug in the bottom can be left in or opened up, at installer’s option.

    ===========

    No, but I usually do not spend much time in the garden, when it rains.

    <!–more–>Probably something that a (US) installer can offer, when he does a whole house B&O installation.

    Please notice that in the link that goes to Origin Acoustics (and on their website) there is no mentioning whatsoever of Bang & Olufsen.
    Also the name there is SEASONS LSB64 and The Landscape Bollard Loudspeaker.

    I am not so sure that it was someone at B&O, who had ‘a sense of humor’.

    It seems more like a product (with an included BS Core) that they also brand Bang & Olufsen – but in reality was something that Origin Acoustics came up with for the most part.
    Would be interesting to know, if the amp that they mention is the same as what B&O calls Beoamp 125.4.
