New 'Assets' like Booklet in JRemote V3.08
« on: October 05, 2014, 10:13:07 am »

I can´t manage to get the new assets like showing a Booklet.pdf within JRemote V3.08 to work.

What do I have to configurate in JRiver (Auto Import?) to get it? - Thanks in advance!

I suppose you have read this thread?
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=91866.0

Anyway, I am creating a step by step sticky for this tomorrow. There appear to be some confusion on how to get this working.

Thank You, Lespaul, I wrote your Workaround, but although the german version might be a little bit different, there seems to be something missing...

Please see added picture. In my menue there is no chance to select "data". Where do I miss this?

You have to select Data under General options=>Features otherwise you won't have the choice. I believe its off by default.

Showing a Booklet.pdf with JRemote works - in principle.

But there is a lot of strange behavior.

If I have a typical folder structure like this:

Artist A:
             CD 1:
                     Track 1
                     Track 2...

             CD 2:
                     Track 1
                     Track 2...
                     Booklet.pdf

             CD 3:
                     Track 1
                     Track 2...
                     Booklet.pdf


I would expect, getting the paper-clip for a 'asset' when choosing CD 2 or CD 3 and no paper-clip when playing CD 1.

In reality I sometimes get no assets, although there is definitely a 'Booklet.pdf' in this folder and on the other hand I get both booklets of CD2 AND CD 3, when choosing CD 1

Is there something I forgot to edit (in JRiver) or is this behavior still buggy?

as far as i know, jremote searches folders and subfolders together so it is normal to see booklet in cd1...

In my testing here I get the correct behaviour with your folder setup.
If an album is inside it`s own folder, only that folders content should be shown.

I`m gonna have to try and reproduce this behaviour somehow.

corehun, just one question, if you view the assets in the metadata view do they show correctly there?
Thinking it could be refresh issue with the now playing screen.

It is same in the metadata view...
But I found it very strange because as far as I checked it happens only in keith jarretts bach siz sonatas for Violin album :) it covers all the booklets of all other albums...

So it works ok with other albums?

Please look at the file path for those albums with issues. Post them here or send them to me by mail.
That would really help finding what the problem is.

The one with all the booklets,

/Volumes/HD/24/Keith Jarrett & Michelle Makarski - Johann Sebastian Bach Six Sonatas for Violin and Piano (44 kHz 24 Bit)/1-01 - Keith Jarrett & Michelle Makarski - Sonata No. 1 in B minor, BWV 1014 I. Adagio.flac

Included booklets file paths,

/Volumes/HD/24/Keith Jarrett - Arbour Zena (96 kHz 24 Bit)/01 - Keith Jarrett - Runes.flac
/Volumes/HD/24/Keith Jarrett - Concerts (Bregenz, München) (96 kHz 24 Bit)/01 - Keith Jarrett - Bregenz, Part I.flac
/Volumes/HD/24/Keith Jarrett - The Koln Concert (96 kHz 24 Bit)/01 - Keith Jarrett - Koln January 24 1975 Part I.flac
/Volumes/HD/24/Keith Jarrett & Charlie Haden - Last Dance (96 kHz 24 Bit)/01 - Keith Jarrett & Charlie Haden - My Old Flame.flac

The one below is the odd one, I can see its booklet under six sonatas but not under itself...
/Volumes/HD/24/Keith Jarrett - Paris, London - Testament (96 kHz 24 Bit)/Disc 1 - Paris/01 - Keith Jarrett - Part I - Salle Pleyel, Paris.flac

@Lespaul,

I read the reply of corehun and tested a lot...
It seems to be, that an existing booklet is NOT shown, if you use special letters in the title of the album (in my case its the"[" and "]" to mark a Hires-Album, i.e "[24-96]"

The booklets are shown a bunch of times, if the Album has double Artists, i.e "Keith Jarrett\\Charlie Haden"

I could not check every "booklet-mistake", but this seems to be a lead...

[] are special characters used by the search engine, so that is definitely the cause of the first issue.  Can probably get that working by changing how the path is encoded.

For the second issue: 
"Keith Jarrett\\Charlie Haden", is that how your folder structure is? Can you give the full path for an album like that?

Thank you for taking the time to investigate this.

Thank you Lespaul for working on this - apparently - special Problem... ;)

"Keith Jarrett\\Charlie Haden" is NOT a Folder structure, it means, that I have two artists in the meta-data of each track in this folder.

To explain the behavior in detail, I have three Folders:

e:\Musik\Keith Jarrett\1975 - The Köln Concert [24-96] [+0,5 dB]\

e:\Musik\Keith Jarrett & Charlie Haden\2010 - Jasmine [24-44]\

e:\Musik\Keith Jarrett & Charlie Haden\2014 - Last Dance [24-96]\


If I choose the "Köln Concert", I get only the associated "Booklet.pdf"

If I chosse "Jasmine" or "Last Dance" I get all the three booklet.pdf from the three Folders shown above

I hope, this gives you additional information to fix the Problem...

sorry to butt in .... but could it be a problem with your path/filename? .. it is probably pretty close to the windows  limit of 255 characters. in any case, you seem to be combining a lot in the folder name..Like you have virtually every tag included in the path/filename itself. Not sure if this is linked to the "booklet" issue however.  But might cause some other problems down the line, so thought I might mention it.

thanks for butting in :) I always check the filenames on windows computer (even if I dont use windows on my streamer computer or nas), I dont think this is the reason for my problem.

This issue is now resolved.

The problem was properly escaping special characters like [] and ().
I had to pull the current version waiting for release(will explain more in main JRemote thread), so this fix will also be part of
the next version.

Thank you for V3.09, Lespaul. It sems that there is no Booklet.pdf missing, even if the folder structure has "[" and "]" including.

But I still get the behavior, described above. That means I get all three booklets if I choose  e:\Musik\Keith Jarrett & Charlie Haden\2010 - Jasmine [24-44] or e:\Musik\Keith Jarrett & Charlie Haden\2014 - Last Dance [24-96].

Why did you cancel the paper-clip in "now playing"-view? - it was a good indication, that there are 'Assets' at all in this folder. I would endorse it, to get it back, maybe a little smaller than in V3.08, just abreast with the Streaming Information in the last line.

Ok, so there is probably something else going on with the multiple booklets issue. I`ll do some more experimenting with folder structure similar to yours.

The booklet icon missing from now playing on iPad was not intentional. I will be back in the next (bug-fix) release.
