Hi,

does anybody use this combination? I can play music on my beoplay a6, but not on my core.

I'm looking for a solution to play my flac music files with my core. I know the B&O App, but this app is really bad for a big music collection.

So i tried audirvana, because they have a nice app for ipad and iphone - i think...

Do you have any ideas?

BS9000 + BS Core + Beosystem 3 + BL8000 + BL4 + BL2 + BL7-1 // BeoVision 7 32“ + BL8000 // Beoplay M5 // Beoplay S3 // 2x BL3500 // 2x BeoPlay A6 + 2x Essence Remote // 2x BeoSound 8 // Playmaker + BL6000

Hi - How do you play your music to your A6? You should be able to do the same with the Core (I’m assuming you have speakers connected to the Core)

Audirvana Runs on a Mac Mini Server Core2Duo (connected via LAN) and the Core is also connected via LAN. The A6 is connected via WLAN.

Are you using Audirvana as a DLNA server?

Yes all the same Network. the B&O App is working with twonky, but has a terrible Interface [:\'(]

The Audirvana App is showing the Core, so i think its dlna?

That depends on the DLNA server used.

first stop Audirvana. Do a reboot on your Core (mains out - wait a minute -mains in).

Restart Audirvana. Choose Core as output device in Audirvana. Start to play music........... Does Audirvana start to play now?

I don't know the Audirvana app but it seems to only be a remote if it is the IOS App you are referring to, which means that either Airplay is used from the Mac Mini, or the Audirvana App acts as a DLNA controller for the Audirvana server running on the mac mini and the Core DLNA renderer service.

Have you tried adding the Audirvana DLNA server in the B&O App to see if (1) it sees the DLNA server and (2) if you get a sound this way?

How to (case needed): In the B&O App go to settings (the body shape at the top right), Music, DLNA, + (top right) should list the available DLNA server(s) on your LAN

Ist works After restarting everything.

Audirvana does not have a dlna Server. For this i tried twonky / kodi ... and many more in combination with the B&O App. But i am Looking for an App with better handling. I want to create Playlists, i want to search for Songs etc.

but stop/release the stream (in Audirvana) after you finally want to stop to listen otherwise the Core can be become stuck.

if you do so, it will work just fine.

Interesting, this is not what I’m reading in their site as well as in various product reviews websites.

Are you then using AirPlay between the Audirvana server and you Core? I guess as you never mentioned about any hard link between the Mac mini and your B&O products

If I was an Audirvana user I would run it on a Mac mini, leverage its DLNA feature to get the best sound from my Core or my other B&O products with DLNA capability, I would manage my music library with Audirvana UI and control my music with Audirvana IOS app which seems to include the features your are looking for and much more.

@mbolo01

mbolo01:

No, not in the sense as a full DLNA server (as Twonky, Minimserver, etc). It is a mediaplayer which indexes presented music files for it's own. These files can be played to several outputs. Audirvana works as a controlpoint using the UPnP/DLNA protocol to play to media renderers (Audio Device Settings | Audirvana)

@jgraefe

"But it Runs Not so harmonic with B&O beolink". How do you mean? ML? NL?

I start playing Audirvana as an UPnP stream on my Beoplay A6. I can multiroom this music stream in sync to al my other NL devices. on the moment of writing 8 (of the 11 NL) devices are playing in sync music streaming from Qobuz (through Audirvana).

Got you, it’s an ad hoc one, not a full one.
