Great piece of kit this! But just a note. I chose a name for the Volumio box on first install but then changed my mind. So I changed the player name in the web GUI settings.
- After this getting to the players web page worked exatly as it should
- The box was still under the old name on the network when it came to the network shares
So I enabled ssh and manually changed the “netbios name” entry plus edited all the three share comments in the samba settings file by:
sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf
sudo /etc/init.d/samba force-reload
And all was well :mrgreen:
I’d suggest that either not have the “netbios name” entry at all in the smb.conf, it’s not needed if you are happy using the hostname automatically instead. And not add the player name to the share comments. Or adding a scripted rewrite and reload of this info in smb.conf when changing player name over the web GUI.
Again, great kit, huge thanks!
