I can access the web ui now, but that is all. There should be a upnp/dnla server on my network serving music but I don't see anything. I also don't see any config files in the config folder.

my bad, it needs to be run in host mode.

 

 

 

 

in the unraid docker webui find asset and click on the icon and select edit.

 

 

change network type to host.

 

 

What are those screenshots from?

 

Is that configured /music folder necessary? What does it do? I still need to configure a watched media type folder in Asset. But when I point it to my music share in unraid the albums and artists don show up on my connecting devices. The library in Asset stays empty: Library Contains 0 Tracks, 0 Albums.

 

Even after several rescans.

 

I tried the same sourcecode on a Synolgy server and there the albums/artists do show up.

screenshots are from kodi (formerly the media player known as xbmc) the only thing i've got that will connect to a DLNA source.

 

it's working perfectly fine to me, artists and whatnots showing up on kodi.

 

it helps to think of the file locations in asset configuration itself like this.

 

/music is mapped /mnt/user/Music1 (i believe that was your mapping), so in asset everything AFTER /mnt/user/Music1 is root.

 

say for example you have a folder in /mnt/user/Music1 called or whatever, you'd put /music/artists in asset.

 

or if you wanted to use the entire share in asset, you'd just put /music.

 

 

and seriously fella, i've gone above and beyond here, you really need to be working this stuff out for yourself from here on in.

Thanks a bundle for all your help. This is hard to get, I didn't understand the /music folder setting in the docker. I don't have that when installing it on a synology or qnap NAS. And this whole docker business is just very new to this. I have impaired sight and  right arm and leg and also mental issues, caused by an accident. I therefore have to rely on others for help and assistance.

 

 

I just put /music in Asset as the entire Music1 share holds my music. At the moment 352 albums. Glad to say it works now. Now back to dBpoweramp to solve my licensing issue. I was told that the key I used for the Windows version could also be used for the Linux version. Hope they can iron it out. It is a nice piece of software and I don't mind paying for it. Just like I did for Unraid.
