EmbyCon - Play On Name

[ScottBouch 6]

Hi all,

First - This addon rocks, thank you! Solves a lot of the issues of DLNA / UPNP playing.

However,  I have an issue.... I have two raspberry Pi's running OSMC with Embycon in my house. The devices have different ID's ("Kitchen" and "Cinema") which show up to UPNP players, but when I browse to my server's Emby web page, and select "Play on" there is no way to differentiate between the two:

The only way I can easily work around this is to create a new used for one of them and log it in with that new user... but then we lose continuity with "continue watching" / recently played etc..

Is there any setting in the EmbyCon app that may help me to re-name these devices for unique identification?

Many thanks, Scott

@ScottBouch You should see the Device name as the first part of the item like this

 

You set this name in the EmbyCon Addon settings
