 to control that string. Continue to use the profile name, and change the
 profile name to what identifying string you want that instance to appear
 as. The profile name defaults to the local system hostname, but can be
 configured within the ''config.xml'' in 0.26, or ''mysql.txt'' in 0.25 and
 previous.

 the name is used from the config.xml/mysql.txt file), and the airplay
 display name to be Home Theater.

 mythtv-users mailing list, than on trac.

 Fair enough.

 I'll get to work on the settings UI and post it to get this ticket back on
 topic :-)
