Add ability to remember IP address for next time #165

Open pzim-devdata opened 2 years ago

pzim-devdata commented 2 years ago

Hello,

Thank you very much for your app.

It works well, but my devices can't be discovered when I start. So, I enter an IP address and everything is good. But next time I want to connect, I must enter the IP address again.

Is there a way to remember the IP address for the next time I start the app ? I have a static IP for my devices so it could work..

In addition, is there a way to specify a ZoneGroupName or a DeviceName instead of the IP address ? With Sonos SoCo we can us a zone name instead of IP address.

Thanks

I have to enter my ip address when I use a VPN, do you know why ? Network discovery works very well when I don't use my VPN

I can confirm the IP address used to find my system at startup needs to be re-entered every time, with or without the VPN activated ... Exporting the settings and importing them at startup does not find my system either. It manually needs to be added via the "Add IP manually" at every startup.
