Asset upnp keyword search

[peteraschindler]

Many music management software packages allow keyword search of all or most ID-tags. Why does asset upnp only offer trees? Will it soon?

Truth is, I usually only recall fragments of information about a track or album like "Beethoven piano ashkenazy" or "bobby yo-yo ma". Ideally, one can enter these keywords (and keyword fragments with wild cards) into a search box and the server should come back with any album or track that matches these keywords.

Thanks.

It is down to the control point, not server to do keyword searching.

Re: Asset upnp keyword search

so what you're saying is to raise this with Linn, for example.

Fair enough; the server's just the model. (model-view-controller, as old as Xerox PARC)

Thanks.

Does Asset support UPnP Search? It appears to be there in the control XML, but GetSearchCapabilities returns an empty string and Search returns 800.

Not currently, it is soon to be implemented (in a big way, our control point will rely on it heavily)

Have you implemented the UPnP search? I'm currently getting 800 error messages when searching via PlugPlayer.
