Re: Asset UPnP R5

But Kazoo only works with LINN players while Kinsky is more general. Sadly to say that i'm not a LINN owner.

Re: Asset UPnP R5

I had issues with Asset + bubble upnp server + kinsky, and asset wasn't the culprit, I switched to Kazoo, everything perfect now.

Re: Asset UPnP R5

Hi Spoon,

my windows7 task manager shows the following processes:

Asset-Config.exe *32
Asset-uPNP.exe *32
Asset-uPNP.exe *32
Asset-UPnPService.exe *32

Is it correct that i have Asset-uPNP.exe twice ?

Re: Asset UPnP R5

Hi Spoon,

my player is a little IPTV set-top-box with my own UPnP renderer on it (i use latest platinum UPnP stack). I never had any similarly issues with Asset and Linn Kinsky.

Re: Asset UPnP R5

Which player do you have? does it do it for all flac files?

Re: Asset UPnP R5

Hi Spoon,
i'm streaming FLAC files and as is (no transcoding)
I have reinstall R5 Beta 11 and end up with the same issue. A downgrade
to Beta 10 did solve it again. So it's reproducable here.

Re: Asset UPnP R5

What file type are you streaming? and how is asset sending that audio? (as is? or as wav, etc)?

Re: Asset UPnP R5

Hi Spoon,

since update to R5 Beta 11 most of the time my kinsky (4.3.17) control point (OS X and iOS) will not iterate to the next track. Reinstall R5 Beta 10 solve this problem.
Any idea what i'm doing wrong ?

Regards

Re: Asset UPnP R5

Asset does not have upgrade costs, if you bought R1 you can install R5.

When R5 is out I would recommend to upgrade, it is the best Asset we have done so far.

O.K...thanks Spoon. I'll wait for the official release.

Re: Asset UPnP R5

If you look in task manager, how many asset processes are running?

Currently four. Two under SYSTEM and two under Administrator (my username). Do I need to change the way it runs? ie whether I run it as a service or not? There's also an AssetUPnP-Service running as well as the four Asset-uPNP's.

Re: Asset UPnP R5

If you are happy with Asset R4.3, I don't see any reason to upgrade, unless you wish to support Spoon financially.

If there are features/fixes in Asset R5 that you require, then upgrade.

Re: Asset UPnP R5

I've just installed beta 10 over 4.3 on my server running WHS 2011. I still get two Assets, visible to anything looking for a media server, even after rebooting the server.

Any thoughts (or have I missed something)?

Re: Asset UPnP R5

The "stuttering" radios seem to work fine now with beta 11, the ones that didn't work still don't though. But that's definitely a step.

Re: Asset UPnP R5

I'm a registered user of 4.3 and I'm not having any issues right now. I'm streaming to my AVR. Should I install the upgrade or just leave well enough alone?
