Why does mediaserver now do this:

Under Tos5 (5.1.145) the display icon is the one on the left.

Under Tos6 (6.0.519) the display icon is the one on the right.

Now, it was my understanding that (one of the) reasons for adopting a 'superuser' login was to minimise the chances of some ner'do'well just attacking 'root'. However, here is my 'superuser' name visible to all! :( The original idea that MediaServer said what it was ("Media") seemed ideally logical to me. Now it says "Yoohoo - here I am". This is despite the fact that I used an alternate admin user to install and enable Multimedia Server and the files in the indexed folders are not owned by either 'superuser' or the alternate admin.

Change for the sake of change :?: Baffling, to say the least. Unwise, to be generous. It, sort of, underlines the whole ethos of TOS6. Confused :!:
F5-221 TOS7.0.0777 - 4x4TB (Ironwolf) Traid
F2-424 TOS7.0.0777 - 2x500GB nvme (P3) Traid, 2x6TB HDD (HGST) Traid
F2-221 TOS7.0.0777 - 1x3TB Ext4, 1x4TB Btrfs
F2-425+ TOS7.0.0777 - 2x500GB nvme (P3) Traid, 2x6TB HDD (EXOS) Traid
