Asset Control Discussions

Re: Asset Control Discussions

I use the following setup:

• Windows Home Server with Asset UPnP
• uPlayer
• Asset Control
• WD TV Live

Asset Control has not problem finiding and communication with Asset UPnP. Asset Control finds WD TV Live, but I was unable to play anything on this device. Is this expected?

When I run on the same laptop (Windows 7) both uPlayer and Asset Control then I can play music served by Asset UPnP running on the Windows Home Server.

With Asset Control I have couple useability issues, so any advice/explanation will be higly appreciated:

1. Selecting in the Library [Asset UPnP]->[Playlists]->[Jukebox Track Selection] - gives me the list of selected tracks. Click on Play button - nothing happens (no track is played) - why? Why do I have to click 100 times (this is the default jukebox playlist length in Asset UPnP) on tracks in the libary pane to move them to the playlist pane?
2. Once I get my tracks on the playlist I can change the order in which they are played. Why changing the playing order clears the playlist?

Thanks

Re: Asset Control Discussions

WD Live has many issues with Asset Control, they will be looked at when development work resumes.

Re: Asset Control Discussions

Hi Spoon, There's not much happened on Asset Control within the last weeks/months. I'm wondering how your release-schedule looks like. Linn has developed a new major release Davaar which is in beta now. Will you update Asset Control soon to be compatible with Davaar? Thanks for an update.

Re: Asset Control Discussions

Hello Spoon. I am not seeing my Oppo95 on Asset Control. Is that something that will be looked at when work starts again?

Re: Asset Control Discussions

Do you see it with other control points?

Re: Asset Control Discussions

Why is it that when I select an album and then press "Play Album" (and the list of songs are transferred to the playlist) it only plays the songs for a few seconds and then skip to the next one on the list. What am I doing wrong?

I'm using Asset Control with a RipNas.

Re: Asset Control Discussions

It means that Asset Control is not able to detect the player is actually playing the track.

Re: Asset Control Discussions

Re: Asset Control Discussions

I cannot commit to a time scale, all I can say at this time is Illustrate are working behind the scenes on something big and hope to announce in about 4 weeks.

I found a couple of other control points and they cannot see tyhe Oppo 95 either ... seems not to be a renderer.

Re: Asset Control Discussions - Davaar Compatibility

Hi Spoon,
Does Asset UPnP Version 3 Premium and Asset Control October 2010 Beta work with Linn Davaar?
If not, can you say anything about when it will be compatible?
Thanks,
Chip

Re: Asset Control Discussions - Davaar Compatibility

The server is always going to be compatible with any future release, Asset Control would need updating.
