Asset Upnp for Synology?

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

I've just bought a 215j - and the instruction to install ASSET (the RaspberryPi version 4.6) worked perfectly. Everything seems to work.

Yes you have a supported NAS (CPU). In the meantime I figured out that my NAS is based on another CPU

http://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=107921&p=406074*p406074

The boxes use different processors (Intel Atom D525 vs ARMv71), so you'd have to find a binary built for your CPU.

so I have the bad card :-(

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

Hi,
Good news for owners of a Synology NAS DS214SE or eq. (same ARM7 core)
You can run Asset for Raspberry Pi on it.

Installation instructions for ASSET on Synology DS214SE

Enable the SSH-service (using port 10022) on the Synology NAS via the diskstation manager under control panel>Terminal and SNMP options

On a windows pc:
Launch "Putty.exe" and open a PuTTy session:
Host Name: diskstation (or IP address of synology NAS)
Port: 10022
Connection type: SSH

login as: root
root@diskstation's password: ********** (enter here Synology's admin password)

cd /usr/bin
mkdir asset
chmod 777 asset
cd asset

wget http://www.dbpoweramp.com/install/As...berryPi.tar.gz

tar -zxvf *.gz
rm *.gz

cd /usr/bin/asset/bin
./AssetUPnP


Close PuTTy

Configure Asset with a web browser and the URL http://diskstation:45537


To autostart Asset, make an 'asset.conf' script file with 'Notepad'
Content of the 'asset.conf' file:
start on started synonetd
stop on runlevel [06]
exec /usr/bin/asset/bin/AssetUPnP


Copy the asset.conf script file from your pc to the /etc/init folder on your NAS.
To do that? download 'WinSCP', install WinSCP and launch WinSCP
Login with:
File protocol: SFTP
Address Host: diskstation (or IP address of synology NAS)
Port: 10022
user name: root
password: ********** (enter here Synology's admin password)

Browse on the left window to the 'asset.conf' file
Browse on the right window to the path: /etc/init
Copy the 'asset.conf' file to the /etc/init folder
Close WinSCP

Reboot the Synology NAS

Enjoy

Hi,

Thanks so much for posting this; that's fantastic! I've followed the steps, and I've been able to get Asset UPnP working on my Synology NAS, so I'm really pleased.

The only trouble I'm having with it is getting it start up automatically. I couldn't S/FTP in to the root account, and a search online suggested that this is a common problem with DSM.

I therefore used Vi to create the file in the relevant directory, but when I restarted the NAS, Asset wasn't running.

Is there anything else I can try? If I could get it to start up with the NAS, that would be perfect.

Many thanks in anticipation.

Best wishes,

Wilts_RM

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

I'm guessing that Asset is still not available for Synology? Having just bought both I'm rather hoping that it is..

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

Asset is not officially supported for Synology devices. We do not provide a proper installer and currently do not plan on making one.

However, we put a lot of effort into making the generic Linux version of Asset as compatible as possible; as you can see from this thread, you can get it running as a generic Linux program on Linux powered NAS units.

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

Ok, thanks. That's well beyond my ability so I guess I'll have to chalk it up and move on.

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

Hi!

I'm still looking for a version for my NAS DS2411+ with Intel Atom D525. I would try to install it manually, based on the guide above, but I need the right build! I couldn't do it by my own. Is there a chance to get it?

[PeterP]

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

On Intel Atom, Linux x86 32-bit build would be the first thing to try.

When in doubt, try uploading each of them to the NAS, unpacking and starting up the main program manually over SSH to see if it runs or not.

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

ok thanks will try it

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

hey!
have u tried it melgoth?
im sad that asset upnp is not available for synology now, although community waiting for it is growing, nevertheless i ordered a ds216+ as my new nas wich has a intel celeron 64bit cpu, and i would like to ask what you guys think, wheter the debian intel 64bit manual installer might be working on this ship?
appreciate any recommendations of you pros, as my knowledge is limited to follow instructions above, but not much more.
thanks

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

Hi hecaitomex!

I haven't done it until now. I'm not so familiar with Linux and have to prepare myself before doing this but got no time doing it. When finished I will post it here, but you have to be patience. - sorry for that.

best regards

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

thanks oldrocker, your posts let me hope that it might work.
what i want to know is if u think wether it might work or not to install the debian intel 64 bit package on the ds216+, im asking because DSM isnt a debian distro.
btw: for those having problems with getting root acces to the DS, before loggin in as root you have to login as admin (via SSH) and type: "sudo -i", thereafter you will be logged in as root, otherwise access will be denied.
kind regards

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

good news for owners of Intel-Based Synologys!
just got my DS216+ and first thing i did was to install the "asset Upnp debian intel 64bit installer" following oldrockers instructions, and it works perfectly!
only thing to add is that i do not get acces to my nas via SSH as root at first, its always neccessary to login as admin first, then type "sudo -i" and therafter you will have root acces, what is needed to copy the asset.conf into the init folder.
i was not able to make this with winscp (because not knowing how to swicht from admin to root inside the running program), i just copied the asset.conf file via SMB (windows) into the music folder (used by ausiostation), startet putty, logged on as admin, switched to root, and copied the filde via "cp /volume1/music/asset.conf /etc/init" to the init folder, thats it.
thanks for your help guys!

Re: Asset Upnp for Synology?

I get all the way until the end and then when I type ./AssetUPnP I get the message...

-ash: ./AssetUPnP: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

Using a RS812+. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
