Hi

I have just written a control point for AMX control of the Linn DS - which works fine with Twonky Media & Mediatomb, but it seems to have a problem with Asset UPNP.
I can list albums correctly (although my a-z/z-a feature will not work), but when an album is selected, it is unable to find it. It looks like the 'res' element is missing is the search response.

Any thoughts

thanks

Duncan

Do you need the search element, for example:

BrowseDirectChildern >> gives a listing, when one is selected call browse direct childern again with the new object id, rather than searching for an album (because there might be more levels below, such as a-z)

Hi Thanks for the reply.

I've tried to cut out the need for the user to navigate through the tree structure by doing an initial search for 'all albums', thus omitting the need for the user having to route their way through. I have also allowed the user to do alpha searches and search by part of title or artist.
Once an album is selected, I then use the Browsedirectchildren to get album data and if selected transfer to the data to the renderer.

does this help any???

Thanks
