Synchronise files
If you make changes in your playlists either on the computer,
or from the television when BeoMaster 5 is not connected to
the computer, it is important to know how these changes
work.
Any change made on either location will automatically be
copied to the other location when you reconnect BeoPlayer/
BeoPort and BeoMaster 5.
If changes have been made on both locations, the version
stored on the computer will overwrite the one stored locally on
the BeoMaster 5. For example: You rotate a photo using a
software on the computer. Once you reconnect BeoMaster 5
to the computer, the change will take effect on BeoMaster 5.
Files can be synchronised between the computer and
BeoMaster 5 at any time.
> Right-click the Bang & Olufsen icon.
> Select `Start BeoPlayer <–> BeoMaster 5´.
If connection fails
When you want to transfer files to BeoMaster 5 or
BeoSound 5, connection may fail if, for example, your network
has been reset. A dialogue box appears asking you to enter
the IP-address of BeoMaster 5 or BeoSound 5.
