I have been running the Logitech Media Server on Windows 7.  It works
just fine, but I'm having problems switching back and forth between my
local server and mysqueezebox.com.  Maybe it's the way the system is
designed, or maybe I'm doing something wrong.  I hope someone can tell
me.

Suppose my radio is currently using mysqueezebox.com as the server, and
I want to switch over to my local server.

The ONLY way I know to do it is to go to my computer, open the Logitech
Media Server Control Panel, go to the advanced tab, click "Web Remote
Control", and click "Yes" when the alert asks me if I want to switch
from mysqueezebox.com to this server.

Later, suppose I want to switch back to using mysqueezebox.com as the
server.  The ONLY way I know how do do this is from the radio.  I go to
Home -> Extras -> Music Source and select mysqueezebox.com.

Switching servers seems very awkward.  Why can't all server switching
be done from the radio?

Here's why it matters: I don't run the local server 24x7.  I shut down
my computer at night to save power, and I let my computer sleep during
the day when I'm not at my desk.  But unless the computer is awake, the
radio becomes completely useless.  It can only tell me that it can't
connect to the local server.  I can't tell the radio to switch to
mysqueezebox.com.  I must wake my computer and do it from the Web panel
remote control.

Again, I'm hoping someone can enlighten me as to what (if anything) I'm
doing wrong.  Surely, it can't be this complicated!
