n-stream doesn’t show genre

Posted by: lc-226 on 24 January 2012

Since I updated my Uniti to firmware 3.9, n-stream (on i-pod touch) shows all genres as “unknown” – but after moving into the “unknown folder” the headline shows the correct genre. This problem occurs only with n-stream – “PlugPlayer” an “Kinsky” show the correct genre listing as well as the display on the Uniti. The files are stored as FLAC on a Asset NAS with Asset UPNP.
Thanks for any help!

I have this as well on my ND5/NStream when I use either Asset or Foobar as a server. It was fine with the Logitech Media Centre or JRiver but I don't like those for other reasons. Likewise, an answer would be much appreciated!

I have exactly the same problem. My setup, too, is AssetNAS, Uniti (with 24/192 streaming board) and Ipod touch. When I use the TwonkyApp (or Kinsky) everything is as it should be. I have contacted HQ two days ago - no reply yet.

The latest version Asset 4 beta fixes this issue.

Thanks, Simon, that is what I thought when read Spoon^s latest information v4. I did, however, not manage to install v4 beta. Downloading the WHS v1 version from the first post in the respective thread, copying it to C:/ of my AssetNAS, removing v3 using add/remove programs worked fine. Even the installation went correctly. But when I verified the version after a reboot of the AssetNAS, it still showed v3 ...

Thanks for any suggestion. adca

Hi adca that indeed  sounds strange, certainly if you removed the earlier version. Mine say says version 4 beta on the info screen. Perhaps one for Spoon's forum....

Not again. i have just posted over there because there seem to be some issues with the latest beta of audio safe ...

Perhaps best go back to the V3. That had no issues as far as I can remember, although had somefeature limitations that you can probably live with until the full V4 which is due next month.

Too late, I have already seen the advantages of v4 on my laptop. Tried again. Now it works.

Great stuff, yes I like v4... Especially the dynamic playlists...

Thanks Simon – I installed Asset V4 and after fiddling around with WHS1 for an hour my setup works fine.
