HC: Great, thanks a lot! It kind of hurts for a "geek" like me to have to ask for stuff like this, but with two kids below the age of 3 feeling sick and a wife who expects me to redecorate walls, floors and whatever it is called (cornices? etc. along ceiling, floor, windows and doors) to compensate for acquiring the Moment and 18+19 it will be a while before I get to the reading manuals and searching the web part

Poor guy ;-)
No time for 'discovering', then.
Take your time with the re-decorating - make your wife happy first.
That will make it a lot easier for you.
Congrats on your new stuff.

Where Can i see that Twonky setting...!?

So my take after a few weeks with the BS Moment... (contrary to the description below, am actually loving it)
The initial worry of going from Apple Music to deezer was easily remedied by using this to convert all my apple music and playlists to deezer...

So far so good, it's already working out the radio to listen too over breakfast, as well as the evening and weekend music.
Have had the odd glitch where a paperclip was required for the mobile bit of it, as well as the odd bit of not always wanting to react to finger swipes etc.
I guess am not worried too much as most of the time I use the music app on ipad/iphone. This really is the biggest annoyance as I just cant get my mind over how to make it work properly. Bit of a worry as I've spent 23 years faffing about in the digital app/web world and studied User Interfaces. Oh well am sure I'll get it.
Flow in deezer doesn't always hit the mark, generally it's pretty hopeless, but hopefully with more use it'll get better.
My only bit of concern is how the wood will fair in the harsh UV light of NZ as it's near a window. Will let you guys know
Hi benjnz
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Expecting an software update in the coming month, hopefully also to Beomusic, will see ...

Yes, especially interested in changes to the Beomusic app! :-)
Does anyone know how the Moment handles multiple rooms? I have BL5s in the living room (which will be connected directly to the Moment via PL) and 17s in the bedroom (wireless to the Moment). How can I turn each room on and off if they're all connected to the same Moment.
Austin:How can I turn each room on and off if they're all connected to the same Moment.
buy an Essence mkII and connect the BL17.
than you can switch them on/off separately as separate sources or joined together
Oh wow. That's annoying. So connecting up to '8 wireless speakers' on the Moment would play the same content on all the speakers and no control over which ones?
Hope that if there will be an update it is soon. Annoying issues with my Moment. Very slow responses of the software and each day I need to restart the thing now. Worked fine after my purchase in July but since 2 weeks albums, playlist or Tunein only respond a minute later after pressing the screen. Tried resetting, worked for a day. Next day same problems back again. Thought maybe its the network although everything else of my equipment works fine. Tried fixing IP"s, noticed that only works when you reset the hub and the Sound Heart immediately after pressing confirm, then they are fixed but not sure for how long. Somehow they are switched back to dhcp again. Mysterious piece of equipment. My wife is questioning my mental health spending so much money, time, and frustration on a piece of equipment. But he, if it works its a great device.
Really hope they get there act together there in Denmark as the software apps they promote and sell are created by a bunch of amateurs which is my humble opinion.

Norwin

Would be nice if the Moment update could also leverage this ; for example switching Deezer libraries based on who is using the Moment. Ability to combine different Deezer libraries, Built in "flow" (personal radio station) with all multi room devices (Monent, Essence, etc) that would play the "flow" of the library connected to that particular device or similar functionality. Would fit the idea of the Moment and its multi room capability very well.

Update
After last updates everything on my Moment works fine again except for fixed IP's but not complaining about that. Would be great to get a working and up to date version of the Beoapp for Android and Windows 10 and I am a happy customer.

Working B&O (Beoplay) Universal-Apps for Windows 10 would be GREAT
Would be heaven yeah.....I just read in Google Apps ** The BeoMusic App is currently being updated with a new user interface and support for more products. Please check in again by November 1st to download the new and improved version of BeoMusic.**

I would not exactly point out November, but before the end of the year...
Also a new Android version is coming....

And I have.
Got tired of using Twonky on my iMac and having the music on my Synology NAS.
It simply did not work well and iMac had to be on all the time.
I pointed my Moment directly to the Synology NAS and that now works really well.
(I made sure that the NAS was set to index my music folder)
The only issue is that the songnames are displayed with their file extension on the Moment. But everything else incl. album art and so on seem to work.
Maybe something to try if you also have problems with Twonky.

Hi Hiort,
Nice to see some new live in this thread.
If I understand you correctly, it looks the Moment can handle now different DLNA servers. I tryed with Serviio and it did give me some albums but not all, missed my playlists also. But with the latest (Danish Grey.....) software you give me some thoughts and a reason to have another try.
A happy New Year to you and to all your loved ones.
