Hey folks,
On my QNAP NAS I have three distinct libraries of music:
1) iTunes - a big, sprawling mess with duplicates, missing coverart and all sorts of anomalies. But, there's music in here I can't replace so I wish to keep as is.
2) My stuff, exclusively FLAC - my main library of new and existing music, all beautifully tagged and perfect for coverart etc.
3) Family stuff - common or garden music, all FLAC again, which other members of the family enjoy
I want to keep these libraries separate as they're all relatively huge. I don't want granny (for example) having to trawl through all my stuff to find her Chris De Burgh, and likewise I don't want to see her Chris de Burgh when I'm trying to impress my friends.
I guess I can run three different uPnP media servers on my NAS - maybe Twonky pointed at the iTunes, Minim at the family stuff and Asset pointing at my stuff, but this seems inelegant.
Can I delineate the three libraries under one instance of Asset, or is there a nice, elegant solution to my problem that I've not considered?
Many thanks in advance!
Cleggy.
