Thanks, rau! : ) - please tell where your picture came from? And does the power cable plug in on the left or right of the rear? In the picture, it appears to be left.

What is this BMS??? Oh never mind, Battery Management. Now We only need the Olympus...

Battery Management System at a guess?

I just popped in here to catch up and see what was going on. I think you are all admirable in your patience and restraint!

Your too generous!

Indeed, the BMS app's initial main use is for Battery Management. But it will also incorporate other convenience features, applicable to other parts of the server. More details will follow as soon as I have gained some personal experience with the app and the server, which will be very soon!

Can this app be the handshake that auto updates software in the O?

I do not have specific details to share at this stage, but we are looking into all the possibilities to use this app to make operating, accessing, and updating the servers as easy and reliable as possible.

BMS is a secret program that Taiko has been working on for years. It stands for "Bullshit Management System" With it, the user can set it to automatically ignore all future posts on audio things you never want to see or hear again such as:
-video compares
-discussion of digital vs analog
-the superiority of 17th re-issue of an LP you already have 16 copes of
-over-priced and over-rated tubes
-gear that you must have that only Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos can afford to buy
-endless posts of album covers without any information about what they like about the music

But the real genius of the program is that you can set it to filter out non-audio BS such as:
-what Taylor Swift is wearing at a Chief's game
-text message requests for donations from politicians you have never heard of
-what students are protesting this week on college campuses
-which crypto currency you must own
-why you don't deserve to live unless you drive an electric vehicle

Once people figure out how truly useful the BMS program is, it will become indispensable!

Well then, it's obviously not working yet!

Steve, not working in spades!! More than just an app will be needed in many of these cases! Full frontal lobotomy comes to mind...

Hi there, Emile/christiaan, I’m following up on an earlier question I posted for Emile that got lost in the mix - might you be able to reveal what the fuse ratings for the Olympus and I/O are? Thanks much! - kevin

As we now have experience developing Bluetooth and Wi-Fi interfaces something particularly interesting might be the ability to stream your mobile device output directly to XDMI. We were initially contemplating on adding this functionality to the Router but directly to XDMI might make more sense.
Emile - can you let us know if streaming from mobile devices to the server (or router) is still being contemplated? In terms of useful functionality, this would rate very highly…
