Is it possible to cancel old airsonos instances when airsonos is started once again?
Regards Shigoru

Unfortunately, this is a function of the iOS' caching - I don't think there's much we can do on the airsonos end to bust these when the devices go down.

I think Apple assumes that bonjour devices are somewhat long-lived, which is not the case with airsonos.

Ok Sorry

This might be possible if we can change the TTL for airsonos' mdns advertisements (see: agnat/node_mdns#105).

Not sure if this is related, but I have yet to see airsonos exit without leaving an airplay ghost of at least one room on the network.

For example, after closing airsonos, I'll still see <Sonos Room 1> or <Sonos Room 2> on my list of AirPlay devices on both my MacBook Pro and iMac (both on 10.10.2). I don't think I've ever seen both listed on exit. (I'm seeing this right now & not seeing any AirPlay devices on my iPhone.
