By pure accident I found if hit A.TAPE on my Beo4 remotes and the signal is received by Beolink Converter ML/NL, it activates Deezer on my Beoplay A6. This works on my “DVD” Beo4 and on my older “AV” Beo4. The various status are:
Perhaps this is widely known, but it is news to me.
This function is unlike JOIN, which plays locally whatever else is playing on the network; nor is it like the “O” button at the top of the Essence remote, which plays/switches audio sources at each keypress.
Are there other buttons on old hardware which call up other music sources from wireless hardware?
- If the A6 was on standby, A.TAPE turns on Deezer, A6 remains on volume zero, Deezer plays on BC ML/NL Powerlink speakers. To get A6 to play, just touch its volume bar on the B&O app.
- If the A6 was playing Spotify, A.TAPE plays Deezer on A6 and BC ML/NL speakers.
- If the A6 was playing B&O Radio, A.TAPE plays Deezer on A6 and BC ML/NL speakers.
- If the A6 was playing N.MUSIC, CD, RADIO, etc. (legacy sources), A.TAPE plays Deezer on A6 and BC ML/NL speakers.
