Unnamed Steamcast Server
Unnamed Steamcast Server
Hi Jay,
I wonder if you might consider changing a behaviour. If a feller has a SourceNameFormat set with a name, let's say "Jay's Radio", I'd like it to always set that for the name when that mount is actually a relay. Now, I sometimes get "Unnamed Steamcast Server", depending on whether or not the relay or it's backup mount is up. If the relay is up, I would get "Jays Radio", if it isn't, and I'm instead receiving the relay's backup mount, I get "Unnamed Steamcast Server".
To hopefully explain what I'm doing a little better, I have a public steamcast server that relays one that is a little more private. The reasons aren't that important, but briefly, I relay a couple of layers deep so that I can pop in and out with a studio override. The semi private steamcast instance has a backup mount that is a relay of a DJ, and the main source for it is my Studio where I connect.
I kind of expect it to take the SourceNameFormat on the backup mount instead of "Unnamed Steamcast Server", so really, I would hope it could be changed to do that. Either that, or let me fully override the name on the public instance with the SourceNameFormat option in the conf.
If I wasn't clear, let me know, and I'll try again and set up a temporary steamcast to demonstrate along with the configs for it.
Thanks for your time,
A1 work dude! (apologies for saying dude)
