submitted on behalf of pallfreeman http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81276#post570133 Note: not player model specific, there is no SBS category to submit general SBS enhancements (that I can find) pallfreeman's request: if SbS is restarted, it forgets the names of any streaming clients. I want a tickable option which tells SbS to remember the names you entered for non-Squeezebox clients, e.g. internet radios and Chumbys, like it does for native clients.
I just tested this using a SbS 7.5 trunk server and can confirm it. Note that it happens only for stream.mp3 clients, not clients running software emulators like SqueezePlay, etc. The player name is saved in server.prefs and the name does survive a server restart. But if you've restarted the server then the player name gets reset when the client connects again.
