    Asset R5 for Windows

    Huge internal update, faster, sleeker. DSD supported, as well as extended search.

    Change Log:

    New database design, faster at indexing, browsing albums
    Upstream art uses compilation artist, but will replace with non-compilation later
    Does not remove files from database when the whole location missing (such as nas share down)
    Compilation albums corrected to not show as Various Artists
    Now compiled on VS 2013
    Code Signed Components
    Now uses persistent browse ids (even if asset is restarted)
    Asset Configuration >> Added 'Configuration Folder: Open in Explorer'
    When browse file & folders, if have folder.jpg or cover.jpg then present for folder
    Inbuilt 40 second scanning delay removed
    Does not scan @Recycle folder
    DSD handling: 'as is' sends untouched audio/x-dff or audio/x-dsf. 'as Wav' decodes the DSD to PCM. 'as DoP' embeds the DSD bitstream into a WAVE file, requires a DoP compatible DAC, only DSD64 files are supported
    Able to select more network shares in the browse library dialog
    Icons for artist, genre, etc main menu items. The images can be found in the AssetImages folder where Asset is installed
    AAC Radio Stations added, some 320kbps AAC streams out there
    Streaming Decoder rewritten, big improvements on marginal radio and WASAPI streaming, also should be more able to resist heavy load on server
    Search handled correctly
    Dynamic browsing added [List Albums]
    Faster database access
    Album listing added new [Shuffle Tracks] entry
    If an album is compilation then album view will not show any compilation artist as album artist, unless an artist has been browsed higher up the tree

    Bug Fix

    Album Artist would not appear in sorted and unsorted location
    If add a new lib folder, then asset is restarted so picks up (for file and folder browsing)
    Was possible to have multiple assets running after install
    Fix for stalled socket potential resource leak

    And install the trial version, if previously registered it will remain so, even through an uninstall.

    Update to R5.1

    Change log:

    Search: fixed a regression from R4, where search was not triggered (and some players with built in control points, would not list any
    tracks or albums)
    Returned container ids are now always < 32 characters, previously they would expand to many more which caused issues on a handful of
    control points.
    Code to request Windows does not sleep is updated so there is no release between tracks
    Fixed issue which could cause oppo to crash whilst browsing
    Added new configuration option to stop [All Tracks] and [Shuffle Tracks] for album listings
    Added new static images (such as A, B, C)
    Bug Fix: Refresh All would not clear internal cache in Asset leading to unpredictable results (until asset was restarted).
    Bug Fix: if output set to mp3 transcoded and source was > 16 bit or 48KHz, then output would be white noise
