SLX is not supposed to allow same user open multiple instances in the same session. Is that what happened? My debug build does allow this so I can test certain things. It may be possible that I put a debug legacy build on my OneDrive. Can you look under Settings | About and see if you have a debug build? Otherwise, here is how SLX handles it when it starts a player: Before starting a player, SLX checks with server to see if a player with the same id or name is already connected to the server. If it finds one with the same name it will uses a new name for the player it is about to start by appending a number, like (2) to it. SLX (actually squeezelite) defaults to the mac address of the computer as the player ID. If SLX finds a player with the same ID already connected to the server it will increment the player ID until it finds a player ID not already being used. If two different people are using SLX on the same machine, it might be a good idea to manually specify different player ID in player settings (-m xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx switch) so that each person's player id gets consistently set. You can rename your player (take out the (2)).
