Small Visual Changes

Hello,

Just wanted to suggest some small changes.

1. Turn Serviio into 1 icon. And do more control with in the app. I dont see the point in having 2 separate programs.
2. Run serviio in the background. Just the icon in the status bar. What is the point in having 2 icons in the dock?
3. Possibly starting serviio from System Preferences.
4. Add option to check for updates on start up or some other predefined times.

Other then that love this program more and more. Following from earliest days.

Good Luck.

Re: Small Visual Changes

the two programs are for people who run serviio like me. I run serviio on a dedicated linux server and run the console on my windows 7 laptop to admin serviio.

Re: Small Visual Changes

Yep, it's a client - server architecture, so you have to start the server first. Then (optionally) you can run the console - that is not necessary for Serviio to work, only for the initial setup most of the time.

I'll probably make a change for the server to not have an icon in the dock - as it doesn't have any user interface. You'll have to use the console to stop Serviio (right click on the system tray icon)
