I don't believe it's random, as I always get the same player selected when there are either two or three active players on my network (depending on whether or not my system at work running Softsqueeze is connected). I asked a similar question a while back and, IIRC, it appears that the player selected is generally the first one listed in the prefs file, where they're sorted by MAC address. Which might as well be random...
User-specific settings in the Slim Server web UI, with a couple of exceptions (some stuff in the Fishbone skin), are totally absent. I don't know if this is just because it's too difficult to engineer them into the current structure of Slim Server, or if the software designers really saw no benefit to providing a feature so common to software today. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22281 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
