    Re: Asset UPnP R2024 beta

    Presuming (and hoping) that "Leave album tag untouched" still means the same as in the previous (windows) version, it means that the ALBUM and TRACK tags are indexed as is (=no change) and DISCNUMBER...

    Re: Asset UPnP R2024 beta

    Ok, that makes sense. Actually, my impression is that the linux versions need a little more care than the windows version.

    Re: Asset UPnP R2024 beta

    Hm, strange if that's the reason. There's been feedback when Asset betas for windows has been released, see e.g. here.

    And the betas are actually useful for us too, with features coming sooner.

    Re: Asset UPnP R2024 beta

    I respect your decision, but may I ask why this has changed? Until recently the windows version was the prioritized one with betas coming first.

    Re: Asset UPnP R2024 beta

    Thanks for the new features, especially the amended [SimpleArtist]. Will there not be a Windows beta, only the final version? Just curious (don't want to push anything if it delays the final...

    Re: Organize single tracks

    Exactly. And I even tried to hijack and rename "Album by Release", but then I was forced to use ALBUM SORT for the chronological sorting which left me with no alphabetical or other sorting option....

    Re: Organize single tracks

    This obviously comes down to whether you want to list albums and singles simultaneously in the album view or if you'd rather split to separate listings.

    "Album by Release" is hard coded to YEAR so...

    Re: Organize single tracks

    Do you mean by creating custom compilation albums? That's no problem, there's no technical difference between them and commercial compilations. Asset will treat them the same.

    You would tag...

    Re: Organize single tracks

    You could make albums of your singles and then populate ALBUM SORT on all albums and singles to sort them all together chronologically. If you want the album(s) with singles sorted after the "real"...

    The old "album type" bug

    Some new light on the old "album type" bug, described in this thread (now closed). The bug is still present in R2023-05-15, but a recent thread triggered me to further investigation.

    Sorting the album listing by a custom tag

    When listing albums there's currently "Album by Release" and "Album by Artist". I'd like to sort by custom tags too, e.g. ALBUM SCORE and ACQUISITION DATE. Listing (an artist's) albums from best to...
  13. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    And for the Marantz & Rotel models that I have encountered. This display problem is very common sadly.
  14. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    No problem, I've seen much much worse, by myself too ;)



    That one example does not leave the audio untouched, as re-encoding mp3 is a lossy process, even with the highest bitrate. I'd prefer if...

  16. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    By stripping the files from tags I don't mean by decoding / encoding, I mean just removing the tags, keeping the original audio untouched.

    I think it would be better than transcoding when you...
  17. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    What's frustrating is that just like the OP, my buddy has requested this very basic bugfix from Cambridge. Judging by their response, they seem genuinely uninterested.

    Haha, it's a tempting move...
  18. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    The result from our testing of the 851N:

  19. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    I don't use RG (yet) so I hadn't read that part in the manual... But the settings could be clearer about the need for transcoding. Also, "in a format other than 'as is'" could also make 'as is...
  20. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    And another oddity we discovered: When playing aiff files streamed "as is" the 851N displayed multiple ALBUM ARTISTs whilst playing - as opposed to single ARTISTs when playing flac files.

    How can...
  21. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    Why transcoding when applying ReplayGain, I'd think "as is" is sufficient?


    Yes I already tried that but it didn't work:
    AS IS: No difference (=single artist still pulled by 851N from flac file)...
  22. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    Great idea to use preformat for testing. We setup this

    preformat:=album artist:=[album artist]-aa-
    preformat:=artist:=[artist]-a-

    and the 851N showed the following on its display whilst...
  23. Re: "Vol. 1" etc. not recognised as part of album title?

    Handling of multi-disc albums has changed in recent versions, so I did some testing when R2023-05-15 was released (with the windows version).

    The following is from the textfile I wrote then....
  24. Re: Cambridge Audio / StreamMagic only displaying first artist

    My buddy has a Cambridge 851N which shares the firmware with CXNv2 I believe. Same story, it also only displays a single ARTIST. But there's an odd twist or two:

    If transcoding to wav or mp3 it...
