Noticed that when I switch to “classic interface”, the issue when shutting of the original source in a multiroom disappear.

I looked at my wife’s iPhone, and it did not have this option. However, I upgraded the software to a version released in mid-July, and it appeared. Therefore, I’d recommend upgrading the app (if you haven’t already).

I was on the Beta app that strangely enough is behind the public app sometimes. Now all is good.

I found the page but only the first two toggle switches appear.

This new behavior is configurable in the app

Hmm…. cannot find that page in the app. Could you guide me to it?

[Hiort]

Thanks Stan! Did not notice that.

Will play around with the setting and see if the stupid thing with the original source in a multiroom play remain. Im afraid that “feature” is non configurable.

Its a Samsung panel inside Horizon.

I would be surprised if B&O radio provides a higher bit rate than TuneIn since, it is my understanding, that neither service is actually providing the bit-stream, but rather more or less providing a catalog to find and connect to the bit-stream. The audio provider is the one actually broadcasting the bit-stream. I recall in the early days of streaming radio, some stations had higher and lower bitrate offerings – mostly for those folks who still had slow internet – but in today’s world of broadband everywhere, I would think most broadcasters probably don’t do that any longer.

I was going to test this, but then decided it would be too difficult since B&O radio capable devices can’t do TuneIn and vice-versa. Yeah, I could use bluetooth or Chromecast, but that’s adding another variable or two to the audio chain.

That makes sense. I was not aware of how the bitstream was served to the device.

[Hiort]

Anyone knows if B&O radio provide higher bitrate than Tunein?

[Hiort]

From the picture it looks as if it’s a complete TV rather than a soundbar. But the Beosound name says it’s something separate.
Wonder if it will be possible to slot any manufacturers panel into the soundbar, but perhaps with better integration (Beoremote) when using LG.

After selecting the cog-wheel in the “radio screen”, it look like this:

 

When selecting Webbradio you come to this screen:

A few errors in my mind:

• Page is suddenly in english
• The ordinary user will not know what an ASE product is
• The sentence under “Bang & Olufsen Radio” is incomplete.
• I find no way to change the order of B&O radio channels you choose that after selection appear under “My stations”.

I have no BROne BT remote so I cannot say how it works.

Not sure how Hiort got this/B&O Radio working! Today I received an answer from the support team ( ). I got this explanation: ‘Det er korrekt at version 4.1.0 giver support i B&O appen for B&O radio på ASE produkter, dog kræver det også en opdatering af selve produktet, hvilket vil komme efter sommerferien.’ Which means, that the app is ahead of the SW of the ASE products. The product update will come after the summer vacations. P.S. They also mentioned that the regular app SE is ahead of the beta, because the had had to prioritize the regular one. MM

Yeah, that makes sense.
Im probably ahead when it comes to firmware since I participated in the beta program for the devices.

[Hiort]

To my knowledge you can only use the Beoremote One with the Horizon.

Not sure why you only get green light. I assume it would go into standby when you plug it to the mains.

Thanks!

However, that needs a bit more information.

I am running the beta 4.0.1 and trying to update the app redirects me to the Testflight app saying that I have the latest app version.

Trying to play stations from the B&O Radio part results in a ‘not supported on this (means an ASE) product’ message.

Where/when and how did you get the 4.1.0 version – respectively where did you find the information on this?

And further….how do you create a radio station list that you – afterwards – can access via the Beoremote?

Edit!
On another device I have the regular app version – that is 4.1.xxxx (got updated a week ago).
No sign of support for B&O Radio there either, when I try to play to my Essences and M3’s.

MM

Im on the regular app right now, not the beta.

Tap the “radio” button in the lower end of the screen.

Tap the cogwheel up to the right.

Tap “Webbradio”. You should then have the option to choose radio service.

Note: Alarm with radio will not work with B&O radio selected. It will just give you a “Beep”.

Does it appear when you use the builtin tuner, “on top” of the TV program you watch? It looks as a message from a web service,

Doubt it has anything to do with the BV11 itself.

Have Radio Paradise (mellow mix) as my work music at the home office.

Now airplaying to my M3 in the home office

[Hiort]

Furthermore there is no option anymore to rearrange your products in the startpage – means which one you want to appear first, second etc. Today I added an M3, which I definitely won’t use that much. This was placed at the top and can not be moved further down like with the regular app versions. A bug or a deliberate choice of the app team???

For me on my iPhone I am able to rearrange the products on the startpage.
