Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing broken Asset menu icons & album covers have installed latest version of Asset for Synology DSM7. The issue remains have installed latest version of IOS to 16.5 on both IPad & IPhone.
Have cleared image cache & rebuilt database in Naim app but no improvement. Have also performed similar via Asset in DSM but again no change
I have posted a thread on Asset forum so will post any update from there to here in case anyone else here is experiencing the same
I have no problems such as your screen shots show.
My system is Synology DS214 with DSM7 & iPad with iPadOS 16.5.
My only problem is some icon defects with Composer & New Albums, the problem looks like the same but nowhere near as bad as Gordy.
I too have reported to the dBp Asset forum
Ooh, yes. I updated yesterday, but haven’t tried to use it, but seem to have the same issue as you. Not spent any time investigating, but did try to edit the browse tree and reset to the default, but no difference. I get the issue with the same letters (I L M Q U V Y) in Artists, Albums and Title and Composers
Out of interest what does your browse tree look like?
`Here’s mine:-
Type{_no_track_list_}
Type\Album
Type\Album Artist{_no_track_list_}
Type\Album Artist\Album by Release

As my system has only minor effects with this bug, which is strange in itself, I’m sticking with the new version and will wait for the bug fix.
Note to QNAP & other non-Synology NAS users, Illustrates Peter-P is asking
“ Has anyone else seen this bug running Asset on something else than Synology? Because Asset program itself is the same (same actual program binary) for plain Linux / Synology / QNAP, so if it’s a bug in Asset it should be apparent on all of these not just Synology.”
Illustrate’s guru PeterP has posted on the Asset forum thread that he’s found the problem …… “ Well, this is embarassing, SOMEHOW Apple ._ files from development Mac made it to the SPK.
This wasn’t happening before, and my scripts didn’t change. This bug happens even if I rebuild old versions from source, so it’s introduced when packing SPK on my machine, not by some changes in my code. I’m still investigating the exact cause and a fixed build will be out shortly.”
He’s posted a patch if anyone’s interested, go to the Asset thread.
I tried the work-around. Successfully deleted the files, restarted Asset, no change running the app from my Mac. Powercycled NDX2 and then laptop - no change. Did a full Asset rescan, no change. Ran app from my phone, works fine. I’m guessing it’s some sort of app caching that takes place, but would have though a reboot would fix that
thank you
