Description Michael Herger 2010-02-25 23:10:31 UTC

Servers can register screensavers to be used on SP based devices. Flickr and Facebook screensavers are implemented that way.

If I set the player to use one of these, then switch my music source to some other player, the screensaver will fail.

This only happens if the old server goes away (eg. switching to mysb.com shutting down SBS)

Fixed Bug: 15786
Description: when switching music sources, re-register server based screensavers as the old server might go away. This will _not_ unregister screensavers registered by the old server which are not available on the new. Just keeping everything on the most recently connected server providing them.

Comment 3 Chris Owens 2010-04-08 17:25:39 UTC

This bug has been marked fixed in a released version of Squeezebox Server or the accompanying firmware or mysqueezebox.com release.
