Re: Asset UPnP v3 Discussions

Yep - I can confirm that the latest build seems to fix both of the WMP12 issues - database constantly rebuild, and multiple listing of tracks :-)

Re: Asset UPnP v3 Discussions

Downloaded Beta again. Deleted the asset folder as per instructions and deleted the WMP12 folders. Now seems to work, maybe I got confused in the betas:o

Sony Bravia also works too

Updated 17th June.

Will try again in case I messed it up. :o


However as per my Sony Bravia post the exe version is 2.9.9.

Re: Asset UPnP v3 Discussions

Asset UPNP config Browse Tree is configured as follows:

Root
- Album Artist / Album (A to Z ticked, No Track Listing ticked)
Album by Release

Asset Control lists all Album Artists correctly, of which there are 40 Album Artists. There are a total of 158 albums.

However, the albums are only sorted by year correctly (i.e. newest first) if there are 3 or more albums under each artist. All my artists with 2 albums are sorted in reverse (i.e. oldest first). Artists with only 1 album, it is not possible to state the sort order because there is only 1 album.

All files are flac, and the uMediaLibrary-dumpdb.exe is showing the YEAR correctly. Asset Control also dispalys the year correctly.

Have gone back to Asset UPNP v.2.1 and all albums are sorted correctly, i.e. Album by Release. This is not the case with Asset UPNP v.3 beta 16 June.

Re: Asset UPnP v3 Discussions

I have a bitof a weird one, WMP12 sees the asset server, can play files from the asset server but wmp12 lists each track a number of times so after a few mins instead of 10 tracks for a cd there are 40 or 50.

I have deleted the asset database as per the latest beta instructions and I have also deleted all the WMP database files as well but still get the same thing.

Re: Asset UPnP v3 Discussions

Your playlists contain files from your computer? or internet URLs?

My playlists only contain files from my computer (flac, aac from itunes store and mp3).

With my playlists i cannot convert flac in lpcm and aac in mp3 320) to hear it at the Oppo BD 83 SE.

@pinkd10 - for playlists Asset will pass out only the files as is.

Hi Spoon,

thanks for the information. But this is a big problem for me. I have converted many CDs from my own collection in flac and i hear the music mainly with playlists.

Is there a chance that Asset v3 can convert flac files from playlists in one of the next Asset v3 releases also in lpcm? I think that this is not only my problem. The same problem is to convert AAC in "mp3 320". I would be very happy if Asset convert in lpcm and mp3 320 in the near future.

If Asset cannot convert playlists in the future can i convert flac in lpcm with dbpoweramp reference? I haven't seen any information in the forum.

Many thanks in advance[/QUOTE]


Hi Spoon,

i would be very happy if you can answer my questions.

I have seen, that Foobar2000 UPNP can convert Playlists to LPCM. I hope that Asset UPNP v3 could do that in the near future too. Asset UPNP is a very good program but convert playlists to lpcm is very important for me. I have bought the premium edition and hope that you can help.

Re: Asset UPnP v3 Discussions

@mville please describe more 'sort problem only occurs for Album Artists with only 2 albums. If the Album Artist has 1 album or 3 or more albums, the sort order is correct. I guess this is a minor development bug.'

It would be a strange bug for this to be the case.

Asset UPNP config Browse Tree is configured as follows:

Root
- Album Artist / Album (A to Z ticked, No Track Listing ticked)
Album by Release

Asset Control lists all Album Artists correctly, of which there are 40 Album Artists. There are a total of 158 albums.

However, the albums are only sorted by year correctly (i.e. newest first) if there are 3 or more albums under each artist. All my artists with 2 albums are sorted in reverse (i.e. oldest first). Artists with only 1 album, it is not possible to state the sort order because there is only 1 album.

All files are flac, and the uMediaLibrary-dumpdb.exe is showing the YEAR correctly. Asset Control also dispalys the year correctly.

This scenario for me is consistent. I hope someone else can also confirm this behaviour.

>"I have all folders, even those with the dot in the folder name, but no more files."

You do not have tracks listed in the folders?

Re: Asset UPnP v3 Discussions

Since 3 days i use v3 premium. Very brilliant software. I have a Oppo BDP-83 SE and especially i use it for my in flac converted personal CD collection. It's a very great sound.

But i have a problem with my "m3u-playlists". How can i play my playlists?

Hi Spoon,

i can play playlists with mp3-titles without any problem. If i will play a playlist with mp3-titles und lpcm-titles (from flac converted) than the oppo plays only the mp3-titles.

Is my problem a Asset v3 Beta-bug? If it is a bug problem. Do you think to fix it with one of the next Beta-releases.

Many thanks in advance.

Re: Asset UPnP v3 Discussions

Hi,
after I installed the newest Beta, when browsing through folders, I have all folders, even those with the dot in the folder name, but no more files.

When I browse through advanced search, everything works fine. I even have access to the music-files.
