Can't add favorites with boom after editing SC favorites

SqueezeCenter Version: 7.2 - 22900 @ Tue Aug 26 11:08:53 PDT 2008 - Mac OS X 10.5.4 (9E17) - EN - utf8 Seems that boom & SC favorites can sometimes get out of sync. I had six favorites defined, then deleted two of them on SC. Then tried to press and hold on the boom front panel to save a new favorite. Nothing happened. Restarting the server fixes things. I noticed this in the server.log file: [08-09-05 21:05:15.9797] Slim::Buttons::Common::__ANON__ (894) Error: No valid url found, not adding favorite!

Ignore the first two lines I included from the server.log file, this is a different bug (see bug 9417). [08-09-05 21:05:15.9797] Slim::Buttons::Common::__ANON__ (894) Error: No valid url found, not adding favorite! [08-09-05 21:05:15.9804] Slim::Buttons::Common::__ANON__ (899) Backtrace: This bug starts after this. Another clarification. All of the favorites I was editing had hotkeys assigned.
if you take out the first two lines, the rest is meaningless. It simply places the context of the missing url mentioned in line 1. therefore, I have to suggest this and bug 9417 are simply duplicates with different descriptions. Boom as an entity has no favourites of its own. Favourites are an SC pref, stored via web interface, preset keys or remote control buttons.
Tried this again -- you're right, though this seems to be a slightly more strange case. If the Boom is currently displaying track information and you edit the favorites on SC, when you try to save a favorite on the Boom by pressing and holding a preset nothing happens. You have to go back up to the top menu and down again to the track info before you can save another preset. (So maybe this should be merged with 9417).
That chain of duplicates led to a bug that had been marked invalid, so I reopened that one. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 9417 ***
