A while a go we had only a Squeezebox Radio and one Squeezebox server
running on a PC. We also use napster.

All seemed to work well in the main - if the PC was turned on then "My
Music" would play the music on the PC and whether the PC was turned on
or not Napster would play. It seemed to automatically fall back to
mysqueezebox.com when the local Squeezebox server that it had
previously been connected to was unavailable.

Just got a Squeezebox Touch and also installed another Squeezebox
server on another PC, we have also been playing with sync'ing devices
and I seem to have all sorts of problems (regardless of whether they
are sync'd or not):

- The Touch does not seem to fall back to mysqueezebox.com if the PC it
was previously connected to is unavailable so we have to keep manually
switching to it (adding it to the main menu) in order to use Napster.
Is this right?

- The Squeezeboxes seem to not be discovering the network correctly.
Sometimes the library listed under switch libraries is one that is not
turned on (probably the one previously used) but the PC that is turned
on is not shown and we need to manually connect to it using "Remote
libraries"

Is this just the way it is, or are we not doing something right here?!
The way the Radio used to work seemed mostly to work very well - easy
to switch to local library, via My Music, but Napster would always play
automatically, via mysqueezebox.com if necessary. Now it all seems hard
and difficult, especially for the non-techy parts of the family!
Putting in IP addresses to find libraries is a nightmare, not least
because currently one of those PCs has a dynamic IP that changes
frequently!

Any thoughts why this is happening and hopefully tips on what we are
doing wrong is much appreciated.
