Think of Qobuz as having several flavours. Mosaic is fine for day to day replay of your albums/tracks but you need to download the Qobuz desktop player to your computer to control Qobuz itself including the quality of sound sent to you, what genres of music you are interested in, the fabulous text information for rack/label/music genre etc, the on-line shop for purchases and so on. Qobuz is huge and has many features that cannot be accessed via Mosaic. No audio at all of course during that time and still not really back to listening to the system as I have been home for only four weeks. Some here will know I have been seriously ill - lucky to be able to do this at all - and have been in hospital for most of this time. This is the first response that I have been able to write for several months so I hope it is OK. Now using that burning resourse exclusively. Hopefully that explains my setup.īTW, the tip on the software to find missing Metadata works great. Menu screen 2nd from bottom, Miles Davis albums screen 3rd from bottom, album screen 4th from bottom, No playing track screen (similar to Mosaic) at top. I see now that I have loaded them that they are not in order nor labeled. Possibly as I dig around more, I’ll be able to pull in additional features. Plex 4 shows the track which is playing with album art as it is playing. Plex 3 shows the album art and track listing. Plex 2 shows the Miles Davis Library expanded. Shot two is the inside of a Miles Davis artist folder showing a quick bio and the albums that I have available on the server. Photo Plex 1 is a sample page of the library. Here are a few shots to understand my thoughts. Although I really like the “data quality” reading displayed below the album art while the track is playing on Mosaic, Plex to me is much more user friendly. It appears on limited use so far that the Mosaic interface is what is disappointing to me and that with Asset, Plex is now working fine and interfacing with the Upsampler directly. I looked more at what was going on last night and it appears after further investigation that adding Asset to my server made a tunnel for Plex to get through to my Upsampler. Thanks as always Pete for chiming in with a great response. Do all of the server interface softwares work in this manner and is this a function of mosaic? I know this is probably elementary, but I could use some help here Prior to buying the media server software, I wanted to get a feel for what and how it works. It almost seems as if it’s set up to play pop songs rather than compositions. Of course, releases by artists where there is no one else attributed works properly. With the Asset/Mosaic setup I get a linear list of artists with tiny covers and may only be one track from an album of various artists rather that the entire album properly joined. Also, when I sort by artist, it gives me “entire albums” by artists. On Plex I have about 12 albums or artists displayed in a rectangular matrix with decent sized album covers that I can clearly see on my cell and I can scroll endlessly until I get to the bottom of the matrix regardless of how many albums or artists i have in sort. I have been using a home based plex server for my media streaming and find the mosaic software with Asset sound great but the user display isn’t very cool. I finally got the upsampler for my vivaldi setup and am streaming using a demo version of Assets.
