If you need the features, personally I don’t see the price an issue in the context of typical systems on this forum. It’s probably hopeless to expect rich database features from player apps and Roon is the solution for me. In any case, see the “Naim app is janky” thread and the feature request thread. It depends on what you want, and you didn’t write what this is for you. The Naim app is what it is (and getting better) and makes many people happy. But it could be done better, it’s no a problem of the UPnP protocol really. you configure it on the sever with a web browser and from a UI perspective it’s not very slick, though workable. And functionality seems IMHO best left to the endpoint and IMHO the data server is not the place to implement it - though with Asset et al. (Asset and Minimserver being the widely preferred ones)Īs for UPnP as such, I don’t see the problem with speed, it only serves audio files, speed is hardly an issue. You didn’t say what UPnP server you are using, are you using the built-in one of Windows? If so, it’s probably a limitation in the built-in server, try a real one. I used Asset UPnP on a NAS briefly and had no problem with track numbers. How do people get round this (or is the streaming refactored for later Naim streamers?)? I am vaguely aware of Roon but I’m not willing to facilitate another subscription model and do not want to add yet another layer to my music system.Īt this moment my best bet seems to use a Logitech Touch connected to one of the NDX digital inputs but that almost seems criminal when Naim streamers are so expensive… and, although I’m not yet certain, it’s seems likely sound quality would be compromised. Set your UPnP Server Options by selecting the Options button in the content.

#Asset upnp out of network tv#
UnPN seems a terrible way to do it, and one result is that both the speed and functionality are very limited. The media receiver connects to your computer via an internet connection (ethernet or wireless), and it connects to your TV or stereo via the old-fashioned way-with cables. I am having trouble believing just how staggeringly awful the Naim app is at streaming locally held files. Is there some way I can change this so the tracks are ordered correctly (hint, re-tagging or renaming files is not an option)?
#Asset upnp out of network windows 10#
Using Windows 10 UpNP I am streaming flac files to my NDX.ĭespite anal tagging and file naming, the NDX/Naim app lists tracks within albums in alphabetical order rather than by track number, indicating that the NDX/Naim app (or Windows 10?) is using the track name tag to order them rather than the track number tag or file name (either of which would be eminently more sensible).
