    Asset Mac: running hidden / service-only

    Asset UPnP for Mac OS app bundle contains standalone Asset service program which can be used without the frontend.
    When invoked standalone, it behaves more or less like Linux version of Asset, providing web interface etc.

    If you wish to run Asset hidden, type in terminal:
    /Applications/Asset\ UPnP.app/Contents/Resources/bin/AssetUPnP &

    To shut down already running Asset:
    /Applications/Asset\ UPnP.app/Contents/Resources/bin/AssetUPnP --shutdown

    Settings will be presented in http://localhost:45537/

    In order to automatically start Asset on logon:
    Open Automator, create new application, "Run Shell Script" action, copy & paste above action for starting Asset into shell script content.
    Save the application - now you have an application that starts Asset. You can make as similar one that stops asset, using the other line.
    Add your Start Asset app to logon items.

    Please do not use normal Asset app if running the service, it will behave erratically as these are not meant to run side by side.
