Map Network Devices on Asset UPNP WHS 2011

[tdd8t]

Long story short - Asset UPNP seemed to work well on my SONOS.

Any way I have it running on the WHS Dashboard - adding any non local drives ie mapped networked drives:

Library contains 0 Tracks and 0 Albums, they don't seemed to be indexed.

If I put a local folder it appears in the library.

Now I assume this is because this service is as a Local System account on Services.msc ?

I changed it to log on as an account however on the dashboard it doesn't even start or appear now as a UPNP network devices.

Completely stuck.

There is no easy answer to this, Asset has to run under the services account, yet this account has no GUI associated to it, so it is not possible to setup mapped network drives.

So there is no way for the database to be indexed which is on a NAS?

If you uninstall Asset, install the Windows 7 version (without dashboard integration), from Remote Desktop Connection to WHS, and set asset to run when logged in, it will be able to index the network share. Just that if Windows reboots, you will have to manually log in and leave it, to run.
