This was discussed a couple of times here.
There will be no 'Webradio' on the V1's.
The official explanation is/was: because of license fees.
But (in your case) - what is wrong with streaming from the Avant?
MM
There is a tv - and there is a BV
I can't imagine that implementing the TuneIN service is 'for free'.
Yes - of course the Avant must be 'on', but 'how much on' must it be?
Would be interesting to test that/know the details.

Michael:.... I would gladly pay for a license on v1. In v1 you can pay for hdmi matrix (included in the other models) and previously you could pay for smart-features as well. A cost they decided not to charge. So it's strange that the feature is just unavailable.
That is what I said too. But that did not seem to be possible.
maybe the engine in the V1 simply can't manage it???
Why not try and ask that question (again) - will be interesting, which answer you would get from Beocare.

The 'engine' comes in different versions.
However, I don't know the exact differences - would be nice to learn more about it!
I guess the Avant has to wait because of the movement of the speaker.
When (or if) you use the N.Radio from the Avant on the V1 - how long does it take for it to come alive (through the V1) - just curious ;-)
I guess we're talking of the TuneIN service as a source (NetRadio), that can be assigned to a button and that way be activated by the remote.
TuneIN is available as an app on the SmartTV platform on my V1 (never noticed before).
But that does not help much. I have to turn on to Webmedia, go into apps, start TuneIN, choose my station (from the presets, mostly) and mute the picture.
Something I might (?) live with, but surely nothing, that I can expect my wife to do...
...and not very B&O'ish!!!
I find my prefered danish station - no problem.
But there is no support for my absolute favorite station = Radio Paradise.
This makes this way of listening to NetRadio obsolete.
Starting TuneIN (or the app of the prefered station) on the iDevice and airplaying from there to the connected ATV is a bit easier - and something my wife already can.
I still understand how to load apps on my Smart enabled V1 !
hows it done?
Beo Century ,Beoplay V1, Beocenter 6, Ex-Beolit 12, Beotime , A8. Beolit 15 , Form 2i , Beolab 2000, Beoplay A3.Beosound 1

You mean 'you don't know'?
In that case = start WebMedia from Menu -> Source List.
You will then see already loaded apps.
You might have to scroll to the right to see them all (you can move these, if you please).
If TunrIN is not there, try to search in the app gallery.
! There can be differences in different countries !
Activate/choose TuneIN and find your station (or log in)
Just in case you are like me = a devoted Radio Paradise listener ;-)
Go to the Internet app (in the WebMedia), search for www.radioparadise.com, bookmark that page....
...and start listening.
Be sure to choose 192 kbps as quality.
P.S. Airplaying from the iOS-app Paradise Radio would give you a stream of 320 kbps.
