I'm really scratching my head on this one. Not why you're seeing what you're seeing now (and I'll get to that in a minute), but why this ever worked in any way for you. the Music Source item on the controller is intended to allow you to change the music source for a *connected player*. Press-hold left on the controller actually *disconnects* you from whatever player you were connected to, therefore the Music Source item is pointless in this context. The item used to exist in this menu after press-hold left, but I judged it as a bug and I've changed that so now you should not see Music Source as menu option unless you are connected to a player (and in this case, it appears under Settings->Music Source). Just for sanity checking, when you press-hold left is there an item for Choose Player? Does it list the players connected to that remote server? If so, can you connect to them? I think there may be an important missing feature here, which is the ability to add a SC not on a local network to the controller (provided the controller has been given the necessary routing to that remote server from DHCP). But what's got me confused is why this *ever* worked for you. cheers, #!/ben -- bklaas Logitech Developer: Squeezeplay/SqueezeOS/SqueezeboxController/SqueezeCenter Community Developer: Nokia770Skin http://www.last.fm/user/bklaas/ 'KHAAAN!'
