If the Squeezebox is so dumb that the server needs to give it the numbers of the clock, the server knows quite well that the SqueezeBox is in clock (sleep) mode. So he has all that he knows to send a message in the same brightness as he uses to send those clock numbers/letters.
The problem is the case when the box looses contact to the server. It will then display something like "Connecting to Squeezenetwork..." or similar. At that stage there's no information about the brightness setting available to the box.
Sorry, while I find this reaction to the bright display a bit harsh as well, he's got a point - just should have reported it nicely as a bug or feature request ;)
Exactly. Many just don't understand that complaining will help less than nicely reporting a problem or asking for a solution.
