Denon 3808ci and audio from NAS device

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I've successfully accessed my HP Media Vault mv2020 from my 3808, but have some issues with the music. When I first connect to the media server and choose the toplevel Music menu item I see menus for Album, Artist, Genre, All Music, and Folders.

If I choose All Music I see my songs in a long list, which isn't too helpful as they're just alphabetical. Is there a shuffle option somewhere?

More importantly, if I go into Album/Artist/Genre I just see an item that says ----empty----

I ripped my CDs with WMP 11 and it stored them in a wma format that I put on the NAS device. How do I get the Denon to handle the album/artist/genre stuff?

I arranged the stuff on my mv2020 like this:

MediaShare (This is the folder that does DLNA)
-- Music
----Artist Name 1
------CD Title 1
--------Songs here
------CD Title 2
--------Songs here
---- Artist Name 1
etc...

I can't speak for your NAS device but I have found when running a WMP11 server same thing with the 'album' folder alphabetized, but the 'folders' folder in correct order by track #. Twonky has better control over the folders and the ordering.
