Summary0017364: MediaMonkey Server should show last know IP and Device Name
DescriptionWhen multiple MediaMonkey Servers on the network exist and a MediaMonkey Server is down there is no information to the user which MediaMonkey Server is down.

It would be nice if MediaMonkey could display:
1) Last known IP of the MediaMonkey Server, especially with fixed IPs this would tell what machine is hosting it
2) Device Name, the network name of the machine hosting the MediaMonkey Server

This would aide in troubleshooting when things aren't working.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build

I don't understand, when media server is down then there is no way for MM5 to discover it and show its info? Or am I missing something?

Otherwise to see the server details (when running) you can use the hamburger menu on the each server and select Properties: https://www.dropbox.com/s/93hzpz7k50l6h3y/screenshot%202021-01-11%2020.36.07.png?dl=0

To clarify: LowLander means MMS (MediaMonkey Server) available in ''Storages and Services' section, not the standard MediaMonkey DLNA server available in 'Media Servers' section

Lowlnader is suggesting to expand the "Server is down!" message here https://www.dropbox.com/s/93hzpz7k50l6h3y/Screenshot%202021-01-11%2020.36.07.png?dl=0
And add something like "Last seen" and "Last location"

On the other hand I don't think that anyone is going to run more instances of MMS, why he would do this ? And mostly the IP is dynamic, so the info wouldn't be much better than the current "Server is down". Therefore I don't see this as a high priority issue.
