Registered Asset works worse than 30 day trial version!

[fgenna]

I use a Musaic MPL player with its app installed
on a Samsung smartphone under Android. I use a
router Fritz Box for a private Wi-Fi between the
smartphone and the MPL; and I connect a Windows
10 laptop to the router via an ethernet cable. On the
Windows 10 laptop I have installed the Asset UPnP server

The whole thing is not connected to internet, since I only
want to play my flac and wav files staying on the laptop
hard disk. I send the digital output from the MPL to an
external converter via the coaxial RCA output.

I have a quite strange problem: when I used the 30-day trial
version of the Asset UPnP server, everything was working
normally. But when I bought, downloaded, and installed the
registered version of the Asset server, which looks exactly
the same as the trial one, every time I select "Genres" in
the Musaic app list under "Music libraries", the Musaic software
gets killed. I just can't see my files by genres, with the
registered version of the Asset server.

I have a rather large number of tracks on my hard disk - about 4
thousand - grouped into folders each containing a full
album. Apparently, however, this is not the problem,
since I can see every track if I select the "Tracks" item,
and I can see every Album and every Author. And the
number of tracks was the same when I used the trial version
of Asset, which DID see the Genres. But now, with the
registered version of Asset, I just can't see any Genre:
the Musaic software is instantly killed.

Any idea?

This means the Musaic app has a bug and is crashing, you would have to report to them. Asset just gives out a list of items, if there is too many for the Musaic app to handle (more than it has been designed for) it can crash, but this does not mean it is a fault of Asset.

If it were so, why did the 30 day trial version of Asset work?

Possibly coincidence, the full version returns identical genre listings to the trial version.
