Wondering if it's possible to get this working on an SB2 that's being served by the Touch and TinySBS. I tried connecting my SB2 to the Touch and it works OK for the most part, but the Now Playing and other screens just show the Title of what's playing. Possible to get it showing Tracknum) Title - Artist? I see it listed in server.prefs as something like client:SB2's_MAC_address and see a couple 'titleFormat' type entries. Not sure what to do, though...
