I am using trial version of Asset on Synology DS1019+ with intent to purchase if things work out well. I am a long-time registered user of dBpoweramp and would gladly support more Illustrate software utilities. This server stuff is new to me. I do use Plex server but it's clunky for music. I also tried Synology's Audio Station but I find it also fairly clunky.
A brief description on setup:
Approx 3000 (45000 tracks)albums in various formats on "Volume 1" of NAS.
I installed Asset on a 120GB SSD that is in NAS as "Volume 2". Originally this SSD was being used for a demo of Roon, but I think in the end Roon is too $$$ to stick with.
Now questions:
1. Is the install location for Asset okay? Currently Asset is scanning the music library and is going slowly but surely.
2. I notice the icon in Synology DSM Package Center is default package icon. If I open Asset package it shows the proper icon. Is there a way the icon can be changed so it shows correctly in Package Center?
3. I have many sources I would stream music from NAS to. I am looking for the best client app to do it all. Recommendations? I looked at Lumin, which gets a lot of mention, for iOS but it does not have options to stream to devices, unless I'm missing something. It just asks for a "Lumin".
Endpoints: Sonos Amp/Connect, Bluesound Node 2 (maybe not supported no matter what), Cambridge CXN (v1), Chord Mojo/Poly, various portable digital audio players.
Thanks in advance!
