I've had this issue with remote players too for years and years.  I gave
up and paid the extra to get my own fixed ip.  What the developers don't
seem able to grasp is that they might actually sell more hardware if
people could use it remotely.  They also don't seem able to grasp that
for people in the developing world (sad to admit it but increasingly
the UK feels like that) WAN ip addresses do change daily or even more
frequently - certainly my 'non-fixed' line can.  Imagine asking a
non-nerd to ping the name to extract the ip, then reconfigure the
player with the new ip.  You end up doing what everyone else does and
buy an iPod - or stump up for the fixed ip.
As for priorities, is sorting Facebook and Twitter and all these other
gimmicks really more important than sorting the basics?
