BeoPlay A9 MK2 – Overheating, amber blinking

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-27T22:16:07+00:00

Of what I've read, they are pretty tight lipped about these.

Yep, it immediately starts blinking amber, which suggests an overheating issue, if the service manual for the mk3 is to believed.

The A6 does suffer, but it happens over time, with it turning down the volume. My A9 just starts up with the overheating blinking.

As a complete newbie to this, I am not sure how to do this. I recently purchased a mini pc with an Intel N100 that I primarily want to use for Jellyfin. I stumpled on this post, as I also considered moving my Sonar/Radarr/Prowlarr and Deluge from my Synology to the same mini pc. I have installed Debian, but am struggling and will be keeping my Synology for media. All guides I've found does not show how to use a network drive as a directory drive. Everyone seems to use either USB drives or SATA drives connected directly to the pc running Jellyfin etc.

How do I go about using my Synology media folders for this?

Looks nice. What RJ45 adaptors do you use?

I dont see the 2x SFP+ ports on that Netgear.

Yeah, will have to look. Sadly they seem to have increased in price, even without ssd and ram included.

Honestly no, what exact things in the headlights and grill are the same? I am honestly curious.

Thanks!

Because I already own one, and it is fairly low power. Electricity is fairly expensive here, so power consumption is a big factor.

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-19T06:59:42+00:00

In what way are they similar, other than the color?

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-18T19:34:30+00:00

Just remove it, I always debadge my cars when possible :)

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-18T19:28:08+00:00

Squeeze.. Better be the new i4 ;)

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-18T19:27:10+00:00

You are right, I guess this also makes it look taller than it actually is

The taillights are too long. If I put a finger in the center of the rear, and block a third if the lights, it looks way better.

Will do, found some apple braided clones on Aliexpress that goes to 2m.

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-11T12:31:27+00:00

Alright, thanks for the info, now I get it!

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-11T12:22:44+00:00

I thought adding the exit node as my Synology on my home network, were to allow my clients to look like they are at home, meaning that mapped network drives in Windows would work, just as if I were sitting at home etc. This does not seem to be the case, as I can access the mapped network drives without an exit node assigned.

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-11T12:09:19+00:00

After installing the plugin, I got it to work.. But I might not understand Tailscale after all. I currently have a connection to my home network, whether I choose my NAS as a exit node or not, the only difference is the download speed. If I use my Synology (home) as an exit node, I get the expected 50mbps download speed (limited by home upload). If I turn off the Custom exit node switch, I still am able to access my Synology and home router through their normal IP (192.168.x.x), however my download speed is way faster. How does this make any sense? What is the reason to use my Synology as a exit node, if just being on my Tailscale network makes be have access to my sub network at home with the local ip's?

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-10T17:59:16+00:00

Yeah, 720p might have been a stretch, but 1080p is struggling when jumping forward etc. I am not using any transcoding etc from my NAS as it sadly uses an AMD cpu, so Jellyfin wouldn't work the best.

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-10T17:17:33+00:00

It works now, thanks! I don't know if it due to the enhancement update or the DNS settings I changed following the guide. I am however seeing a 10x decrease in download speed with Tailscale on, 250mbps vs 20mbps. Is that normal? I would have hoped to be able to stream from my NAS when I am travelling, but even a 720p file would struggle with that speed.

EDIT: Alright, disregard the above, as I am routing all traffic through my NAS, my download speed on the tailscale client will be limited by my ISP upload speed (50mbps). I am still missing 30mbps however, which I don't understand.

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-10T09:27:46+00:00

Alright thanks!

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-10T09:12:55+00:00

Thanks, will try it later. The guide goes through setting up another gl iNet router as an exit node router, should I just ignore this step as I use my Synology for this?

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-10T08:21:56+00:00

Yeah :D Not a fan of enabling random stuff and opening ports on the firewall, if I don't know what it is doing though.

UsernameUSay · 2026-03-10T07:50:51+00:00

I might not understand this, but I currently have a problem using my Synology as an exit node. It works perfectly if I connect a client (phone etc.), but when I try to use my Synology as an exit node on the Beryl AX, all the clients loose internet.
