Hello everyone,
There are some issues I would like to point out after the last soft update:
(Asset UPnP: raspberrypi, Version: R6.7)
1. Following the update procedure in the thread: Asset UPnP for Linux instructions - x86, Raspberry Pi, there was a second instance of the new version created, because the initial instructions in the thread: Raspberry Pi Asset Specifics, were different, which all together took a significant amount of time to correct.
2. All of the old settings were lost during the upgrading, including the whole file/folder structure database.
I believe the developers have to understand, that not all of the Asset UPnP software users are certified Linux professionals/developers, hence the installing/reinstalling instructions should be simple and consistent.
Besides, a simple script, as suggested by the person who helped me with my installation, would be able to:
1. Make a copy of the Asset profile (~/.dBpoweramp) folder
2. Remove the old application completely, including installed files and folders, and stopping all running processes
3. Install the new version consistently at the same location
I would like to report a bug:
The database is being completely rescanned by pressing “Rescan folders detecting changes”, which acts as “Rescan all” and takes a lot of time, instead of updating and adding only the new files/folders, as suggested in the description.
I also hope having the Tidal integration added to the server soon, even as an additional purchase.
Kind regards,
Dr Mamarov
