Yes it is. The problem with changing the name isn't though...now you've been able to change it from SC7 can you try again from the controller? -- radish radish's Profile:

Also, as has been pointed out by others, the proper place to do what has been requested is not in the scanner, because you don't want to force a rescan when changing the option. I think it should be an option appropriate only to the scanner. I believe we are NOT saying that any scanned Band

The one thing I'm conflicted over is that if I do have another real album by an artist that is a track artist of a single song on an album I'm using an album artist on, that album shows up with the track artist's other albums as an album of one song. Sometimes I think I don't want it to appear at

One thing I just noticed doing the hardware overview is that some of the product specific pages have pretty long names. For example, hotlinking the word Squeezebox is going to be a pretty common requirement - but it needs this mouthful : Code: Everyone loves a

Another vote for the Acoustic Energy AEGO-M. Sensible sized subwoofer + two *tiny* (but heavy!) mid+HF speakers. 90W RMS. Truly amazing sound from such a small speaker system - hearing is believing. I was sceptical, but have now replaced a pair of Monitor Audio Silver S6s with the AEGO-Ms for

Attached is an beta version of enhanced CDplayer for testing. The main differences are 1. Support for platforms which run cdda2wav - Windows XP and many Linux. Mac/OSX needs some more effort to get cdd2wav to work. Not tested with Vista but should be OK. 2. Album content is identified using

If this is correct, and I assume it is as you have said it, then why are you insisting that using band tag as album artist for the lead band of an album is the wrong way? I am not really saying it is the wrong way, just not the right way for SlimServer/SqueezeCenter, which has never supported it

I've had the SB3 for a couple of months and it's been working great. But since upgrading to SC7, when I try to switch between Squeezecenter and Squeezenetwork, the unit begins to log off of one, then instead of logging into the other, it just turns itself off, like someone had hit the off switch.
