BeoVision Avant 55-75 recent Software Version

Dear Beoworlders,

I am looking for some informations regarding the latest software version for my  BV Avant. It seems that there are no new updates since 12/2015. Is this right? Is the latest version really so flawless, that no bugfixes are needed anymore. I know, never change a running system, but I still don't like the lousy homemedia implementation and the very slow Deezer-Implementation. The same version of Deezer is running on my 3 year old LG TV and it is much more responsive and snappy and faster than the Deezer Version on my Avant. Could you please check and post some informations about your software-version?

Thank you and Cheers

Beroli

I don't know he details ... But I don't have home media problems.

Deezer seems to be hit or miss.

Hi mjmedlo,

you are right regarding Deezer. But I meant a information like this

My Software version is: 1.0.11.37385

Release Date: 09-12-2015

This is my recent Software. Is there a newer software-version than mine?

Home Media can not handle several File-Formats, while my two other and older LG-TV's are playing them instantly from my NAS. Currently I use a Raspberry as a Mediacenter instead of the integrated HomeMedia from the Avant. With the FLIRC-USB, programmed as a Apple-Remote I can even use the BeoRemote One to control the Raspberry over PUC. So there are plenty work-arround-solutions instead of using the HomeMedia / but I would prefer to use the build in App.

Still my question regarding the Version remains.

Cheers Beroli

Same version as mine yet I haven't had any issues with the file formats with mine

I rip Blu Rays and have no issue with MKV

What is your format?

Then again I plug my drive in to the USB in to Input 6

Hi Aussie Michael,

thank you very much for the checking the version. The files I wanted to access are mostly unencrypted, Drm-free ts-files (recordings from my dreambox (freetv)). ts-files are mpeg2 files. They contain mostly two languages and HD, but I can not play them over HomeMedia. Every othe mediaplayer can handle these files.

I will try to add a HD to the USB-Port and see, if there is a difference. 

Cheers Beroli

Beroli, if you have a server or a compatible NAS, try running Plex on it and serve your media that way. Plex will transcode your files into a readable format for your tv in most cases. There is also an Apple TV (4th gen) app that works very beautifully with my setup (with an Avant 55). So you can either choose home media or the app in the Apple TV. A bonus is access to your library from wherever you have internet if you create a Plex account, then you reach your files from a web browser, or mobile applications etc.

Another try could be the universal media server where you have other bonuses (such as the possibility to beam media to your home media feature). Almost how AirPlay on iOS works or the YouTube-cast feature that also works good on beovision Avant.
