RE: Serento: The audiophile UPnP controller app for iOS/macOS
Simbun hit the nail, it was tagFormat: genre.displayFormat={} setting that was preventing Serento to display genres.
Serento now displays genres and some sub-genres, not following the MinimServer rules, but usable.
I realize that Serento isn't the most suitable app for me.
That doesn't mean I'm unwilling to test it and offer an opinion on how I, as a user, would prefer it to work.
Like many other apps, I won't be using Serento ,nor can I use it, because I also use my Linn streamer to play vinyl records and TV audio.
There are only three apps (as far as I know..) capable of switching inputs: the two Linn apps and Lumin.
I’ve been using Qobuz streaming for years, which isn't supported by Serento yet either.
However, if a well-functioning, cheaper 'light' version were to be released,as Simbun suggested, I would consider giving Serento a try, the app has many good qualities, not at least its modern look (Kazoo is starting to feel very dated).
Incidentally, I rarely use folder browsing; I make use of MinimServer intelligent browsing, all my files are tagged. I think there was a misunderstanding regarding how MinimServer folders are handled within the Lumin app.
Can Serento really be considered 100% OpenHome compatible if it cannot display the playlist stored on the renderer?

Succes with further development,

Peter
