Re: Asset UPnP R4.2 (Windows)

FYI, pause function and within-track seeking is now broken on my Linn MDSM via Kinsky on my iPad (running iOS 6.1). Behaviour noted on FLACs and ALACs, no other formats tested. Rolling back to 4.1 fixes it.

We have trouble tracking this one in Kinsky, everything on our side seems right, we have reported it:

Update

We have found an issue in this beta, and reissued it, note the pause issue with Kinsky is still outstanding.

Re: Asset UPnP R4.2 (Windows)

Will v4.2 be released as an add-in for WHS2011? Kind of got used to using the Dashboard to configure all my important software.
Be interested to see if this version fixes my Denon pause issue.

<Edit>
Ooh, something weird - now only lists less than half the music tracks , and I can't get back to the "basic" config view

Re: Asset UPnP R4.2 (Windows)

Yes it will be on release.

To get the basic configuration page, start the configuration through >> Start >> .. AccurateRip Configuration

Re: Asset UPnP R4.2 (Windows)

Hmmm.... Installed 4.2 over 4.1, let system reboot. There's no AccurateRip item in the Start menu but there is an Asset uPnP entry which contains the config shortcut.

Initially reported only half of the available tracks, but its now plodding (very) slowly through a full refresh (seems way slower than 4.1)

Sorry I meant Asset UPnP, long day...

Re: Asset UPnP R4.2 (Windows)

Initial test seems to have fixed the pause issue with my Denon player (tho' not the issue described at the top of the thread - one of my players wouldn't pause *any* track, regardless of format whereas the other, different model, was fine).
Haven't had time to properly test it, tho' i will do over the next week or so and report back

Re: Asset UPnP R4.2 (Windows)

Upstream album art for the Album Artist/Album view seems to be improved with 4.2, but not entirely fixed. I've come across a multi-artist album that doesn't have an Album Artist tag, as follows:

Artist = Leornard Bernstein; George Gershwin

Under the Album Artist view in Kinsky, George Gershwin is listed but with the CD case icon, on drilling down I get to the Rhapsody in Blue album with its album art showing. Back up at the Album Artist view Leonard Gershwin also shows as an Album Artist, but with the album art at the Album Artists level as expected.

Re: Asset UPnP R4.2 (Windows)

As designed, in this instance George Gershwin is a contributing artist and would not take the album art of the main artist

[ac16161]

Re: Asset UPnP R4.2 (Windows)

oh ok. It seemed odd though since whilst album art is missing in this case for Gershwin at the Album Artist level, the moment I tap on the Gershwin entry to go down to the albums view, which in my case has just one entry, the album art is now present. In the absence of no other art being available for the Gershwin tag, I would have expected it to be shown at the Album Artist level. I think the design principle you outline makes sense for contributing artists that have other titles for which they are the main artist, but if no such titles exist I would pick from one of the albums where they are a contributing artist. Just a thought.

Changes

Denon can now pause flac and wave

does such comments mean, that other device get this support also. I have the same with my Marantz NA 11 S1 with Kinsky. Also << and >> isn't working. Also "current played track" display never changes in Kinsky

I have some kind of terminal access to my device where every possible command can be listed/executed. If this may help to fix something, i'm happy to provide those commands.....
