Asset UPnP (DLNA compatible)


Asset is a UPnP (DLNA compatible) audio server, UPnP is a method of sharing media content between devices. Typically audio files are stored on a computer, server or NAS, multiple audio devices around the home network can play audio from the UPnP server (devices such as Linn DS, XBox 360, PS3, etc). Asset features:

  • Designed from the ground up as an audio only UPnP server,
  • Internet Radio: browse popular stations from around the world,
  • Dynamic playlists: find newest, least or most played tracks & albums. Jukebox (random) selection,
  • Customizable browse tree with advanced search facilities (Album by Release, Style, Composer, Conductor...),
  • Configurable Wave, LPCM or mp3 decoding (no quality loss) for devices which cannot play specific audio types,
  • Capture the PC sound output and stream to a UPnP player (Windows 7 & Vista),
  • ReplayGain can be applied to Wave, LPCM and mp3 stream, volume matching across tracks for devices which have no support,
  • Runs efficiently in the background detecting new & changed tracks,
  • Dynamic Browsing, include / Exclude Genres, or Years with ease

When looking at other UPnP servers, you would be surprised how they get the simple things wrong, such as separating out albums with the same name, after all you could have 10 Greatest Hits albums. With Asset UPnP the attention to detail is 2nd to none.

 		 

Asset will run on:
  • Windows 7, XP, Vista compatible,
  • Windows Home Server (WHS v1 & 2011),
  • Apple MAC OS X compatible (when used with Parallels)
