Can't use DNS name as host
I have DNS set up on my local network to make it easier to connect my devices. However, if I enter the DNS name of my MPD server as the host when setting up a profile, it gives the error "Invalid address format."
Looking at the code MainViewModel.cs, it appears the this application only accepts IP addresses and the string "localhost".
This is a feature request to be able to set any DNS name as the host when setting up a profile.
Hi! Thank you for your suggestion. Yes, you are right MPDCtrl currently only accepts IP addresses or the hardcoded "localhost". And I agree that it would be much better if it accepts DNS names as well. It was in my TODO list in the beginning but I kind of forgot about that. Now that you mentioned it, it's back in. But I'm not sure when I'm able to work on it. It may take some time. Thanks.
Hi! Sorry it took a long time, but I updated the app. Now, you can input hostnames. Hope you like it.
