Re: dBpoweramp Renaissance Discussions
I have recently got into music streaming and discovered your great software. I have dB Poweramp on my main PC and am running RipNas Essentials with an optical drive usb'd to an ACER Homestore. I have Asset UPnP inside Windows home server on the Acer and I find Asset Control works very well on a netbook I have.
I recently discovered dBPoweramp Renaissance. I am prticularly enticed by it since I am running Windows 7 on the netbook and like the function to use WASPI for bit perfect replay.
I can start up Renaissance and understand the basic CL wording to control the player BUT as a dumbo at using command lines I just don't quite get how I point Rennaisance at the music i have stored on the Acer. It is the specific way that I have stored my music that is perhaps the problem. I have it in the Acer server's Music folder in a set of sub-folders where the ripped music is stored by genre using folder names such as 'Jazz Piano' or 'ROCK' for example.
So for example the full path to the server and to a particular CD called "We get requests" would be :
\\Geoff\Music\Jazz Piano\Oscar peterson\we get requests
In principle I would want Renaissance to start playing the CD at track one and work its' way through the full album. The next time I start up Renaissance I would want to point it at a different album using a correctly worded path similar to the example above.
Assuming I only have a single 'zone' and so don't need to specify a zone I am not sure if I should be entering something such as
c:\program files\illustrate\dbpoweramp\uplayer.exe" -enqueue="\\Geoff\Music\Jazz Piano\Oscar peterson\we get requests" ( do I need to add the title of the 1st track on the end?)
OR
c:\program files\illustrate\dbpoweramp\uplayer.exe" -collection="\\Geoff\Music\Jazz Piano\Oscar peterson\we get requests"
My first attempts along these lines have failed hopelessly. When I start up Renaissance with no music pointer it starts playing music which I know the location of but I can't figure out how it decided to go to that specific place in my folder structure to find music and since the place it goes seems to vary I am thouroughly confused.
My request is for an example complete command line constructed to make the example I have given work. If you can help with that I can hopefully take it from there.
