Debian/GNU Raspberry Pi B with WD MyBook NAS
Twonky is clunky on WD MyBook
Asset is lovely on Windows Laptop.
Now building low energy, perfectly quiet, 24x7 server with Raspberry Pi B (Debian) and Asset UPnP.
So far:
Added mount of "Shared Music" from WD MyBook on to "/mnt/m/Shared Music"
Downloaded and installed the Trial Version of Asset UPnP
Configured both the mount and Asset to autostart on reboot :)
Problem 1:
downloaded using order number, but cannot unzip licensed version :(
Problem 2:
configuring Asset, the first box is "Watched media folders (one line per folder):"
I tried
/mnt/m/"Shared Music"
"/mnt/m/Shared Music"
/mnt/m/'Shared Music'
/mnt/m/Shared Music
but so far Asset is empty of content :(
IS IT BECAUSE the folder name, "Shared Music" has an embedded space?
I do not think it is a permissions problem
The following command does work:
ls -l /mnt/m/"Shared Music"/Yes/"1971 Fragile"/Folder.jpg
and I can "cat" that file when logged on as "pi"
So Asset should be able to read those files?
Asset is running with UID "pi"
Music files are owned by "root" with permissions set to 755
Should I have done the "crontab -e" editing while logged on as root, instead of pi?
Thanks in advance :)

Well,.. I waited, I rebooted, I waited a little longer,..
Now it works!
So I apologise for wasting your time, and thanks again for reading.
Lesson to learn is: be patient - some things don't happen "immediately"
