I too prefer looking at ‘fresh’.
However, (at least in my case/iPad, Safari) it takes several klicks to get there, when you have been deep into reading a thread.
I see the workaround with the direct UR, but that (again on my iPad) would mean opening yet another tab or leaving the browser to look up and copy that URL for inserting it in rhe current open tab.
Previously there were direct links to ‘fresh’, ‘starting new topic’ and a couple more at the top of whatever page, you were into. Maybe it would be possible to have that again somehow. That would make it easier to browse for threads and starting new topics.
N.B. I am aware that things might look different using another browser or on a pc etc. I am just describing what I experience on my iPad…..maybe I am the only one using an iPad 😉

They are all set to auto update.
So why do they have different versions?
However – as I wrote – they all do what I need from them – so there can’t be much difference or improvement there.
P.S. No experience here with ir eye – all my current stuff is NL-based and BROne/bluetooth controlled.

…and that is the latest it has gotten with Autoupdate set to on.
I do not remember when it was done.
P.S.
A bit of a mystery, though, is that Beotool shows something different.
When searching in the app, it says ‘up to date’ 😏
No big deal for me – my Essences do what I expect from them respectively need.

Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberThanks! On every priviously BV there was a P.Mute (picture mute) option in the remote. This has been missed by some of us and has been reported to B&O as a wish for… However those of us, who might benefit from this function, are obviously too few for them to get into action. I have had a workaround for this for a while, that I can live with. The link to the Reddit page mostly present solutions for those who use the Magic Remote – not for us with a BROne. However one suggestion can be used:
Going into the Settings and doing this should not be a problem with the BROne. This means – translated to the BROne – that you must find this entry in the List:
Sorry for the danish language – I am sure you will find it ? On the screen it then looks like this (please note, that I have deleted all other entries there….I do not need those.
Pushing ‘Skærm fra’/Picture off does the job ? A couple of actions, yes – but it does the job……untill maybe someday B&O might reintroduce P.Mute again as an entry in the List of the remote. Hope that helps. Note! This is a general solution of the LG tv, that works for any source, be it internal or external. My LG version is a C2.

Sadly there have been made some changes for the BROne from the side of B&O here.
The new remote SW does not support the above mentioned ‘workaround’ anymore.
If you – as described – go into List there is no entry for Muligheder/Options any more.
This means, that you can no longer have this rather quick access to turn off the screen (as described above in my original post)….which is a pity.
Am I really the only one, who wants to turn off the LG screen, when I listen to a music album (mostly in Atmos) from the Apple Music app on my AppleTV – or when I use my Blu Ray player as a CD player???
How can removing features be progress 😡

Der B&O Beitrag hierzu: ‘integrierte Lautsprecher für ein raumfüllendes Dolby Atmos Klang-Erlebnis‘.
Wenn das tatsächlig wahr sein würde, warum könnte B&O uns nicht eine solche kleine Soundbar in eigener Regie anbieten? Sie würde ja bestimmt nicht so teuer sein, wie das was B&O uns heute sonst anbietet.
Ohne die gehört zu haben, denke ich daß B&O gutes Geld dafür bekommen hat.
Ob dies das Ansehen von B&O als Anbieter von highend/luxus Audioprodukten stärkt oder schwächt, kann sicherlich diskutiert werden.Reviews über die Sound Quality habe ich nirgends gefunden.

Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD Member“Any suggestions”
No, not really!
I have always used a dedicated (older) iPad/iPhone for music playback….…….and have had the iPhone be a phone.
Actually I have over the years had different setups with the trusted old Playmaker, but have never experienced what you describe. Mostly it was a source (A.Tape/A.Aux) connected to a ML master in the ML setup.
Sorry – that is not much help 😏

Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberMan…how I used to listen to that album a lot back in the days.

MM
Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberTo my knowledge there is no support for Spotify on the Beosound 5.
That was added at a certain point in its life, but afterwards removed again due to changes in the Spotify sw.
I know that some have tingered with adding ‘3.rd party support’ on the BM harddrive!
How that would work today, I do not know?
I have never heard of any restrictions regards the ‘distribution boxes’.
I used to have several junction boxes in my ML network, when I still had that.

Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberThat thing eats batteries 😉
MM
Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberCan you see, which SW version your BV11 is running?
If you happen to have the Beotool app (I do not know if that is still available for download), you can get all sorts of information of your tv….as long as it is on your home network.
Here is an example from my V1
There have been no updates for that for several years.
Same goes for the BV11’s.
P.S.
I have set up my V1 to react to the Radio button for the built-in Netradio on my BEO4/navi. On the Beoremote/ir, that I also use inthat room, I have set one of the MyButtons for a specific radio station (and Speaker Group etc….). Would be possible on the BV11’s as well!
MM
Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberNet Radio on my BV11-46 Mk 4 stopped working about 3 years ago. I assume it ceased to be supported by B&O? It used to work well. Sadly all history now!

Netradio works fine as always on my V1, which basicly has the same engine as the BV11’s.

Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberYou certainly can listen to the CD.
Have a look at the Guide for the device here
MMLocation: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberI think I also decided to rip my CDs. This will be a veeeery smooth operation, basically decorrelated from the search of a new unit. I have abot 1400 CDs, 5 per day takes one year, which means that in 2 years the job will probably be done. Any suggestions for the format? FLAC, MP3, WMA, …

FLAC
MM
Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberOK!
In terms of backwards compatibility B&O has always been special…….one of the things that many a costumer have loved them for.
So – it is more a question of them wanting to keep their old costumers – after all they would still want to spend money on things….if they would work in their current setup.
MM
Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberYou are so right!
All that is left is having/buying used (preloved) products.
Luckily one can still make a damn good setup this way……….something that I would not be able to with products from other manufactors.
I am happy now that I bought the Theatre early on – today I probably would not be able to afford it.
MM
Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberThe short answer is: they have f*ucked up the SW 😡
If you want the polite answer: they have choosen not to implement this feature (ML sources accesable directly on NL/Mozart devices)…………..reason unknown 🥹
MM
Location: Flensborg————DanmarkGOLD MemberIf your Ouverture really is beyond repair, I’d consider the BS3000….especially if you want that and the speakers set up as one unit.
They are still affordable compaired to the 9000.
