Description Innocence 2010-09-02 14:52:08 UTC

With earlier versions of SqueezeCenter (like 7.3.4), when I turned on the SB remote, it'd reconnect to the last used receiver, send a WOL signal, waking up the SC. From standby, the system would be ready in a matter of seconds.

With 7.5.1, when I turn on the SB remote I get the following menu:
Internet Radio
Favorites
Choose Player
Settings

I then have to click Choose Player, then click on the player, then click on the library I want to connect to. Only then the WOL packet is sent and the server awakes.

This is an extremely annoying change for our family. I recon it was done so that my server wont wake up if I only want to use ie. Internet Radio, but couldn't you make it an option in Settings to "Autoconnect to last used player and library" (or not), instead of just changing this and messing up good functionality? :(
