The Product Description for Asset UPnP claims "Wide-ranging audio support: mp3, FLAC, Apple Lossless, WMA (inc Lossless)..."

What is not stated anywhere, either in the Product Description or in the Installation documentation, is that WMA support requires the downloading and installation of a WMA CODEC package.

I couldn't understand why the Asset UPnP server was not listing the content of my Music library (mostly held in WMA Lossless format). After some digging around in the Forum, I finally stumbled across an exchange of messages (http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showpost.php?p=87947&postcount=148) between Spoon and bsd107, where Spoon says that the installation of the CODEC package is required.

I suggest that this is made explicit in the installation instructions - particularly since the WHS and Vista versions of Asset require different WMA CODEC packages...

Thanks

Good point, for the next WHS release we can include WMA as w know the OS.
