Pull down the notification area and tap the SB Player notification.

This is actually how hardware Squeezeboxes behave. When the player
connects, it sends it's name to the server so it would be possible to
specify what it sends.  However I'm not sure what happens if the name
that it sends is different from the name that the server already has for
it. I don't know which one will take precedent.  I'll have to run some
tests.

Yes SB Player uses the new MediaCodec API in Android 4.1, which allows
it to use the system's audio decoders in an SDK app instead of having to
use the NDK.

I'll consider adding this.

You can already do this in Squeeze Control. Look in Preferences >
General.
