I don't know, if I understood the concept of the different players in madsonic, so please advice if I misunderstood something.

How to *quickly* switch between players, when in the webgui of madsonic?

I want to listen music on my laptop/macbookpro via firefox.

I listen to a special song and want to listen it asap via DNLA or AirPlay or Bluetooth.

How can I do this "on the fly", is there a similar way, like in iTunes or the synology web-autostation?
synology web-player "audiostation" is easy and fast to use, when switching the output to another "player"

It now is easily possible in the "playbar" (with MADSONIC 6.3.9840.8df1ddd.20180107.0710)

There is a dropdown menu available to choose all of the configured players.

Thats quicker than quick ;-)
