Do you have an amp with the CI board installed? I think not.
Prior to the CI board, the only inputs were the physical inputs on the rear of the amplifier. With the CI board we now have several additional "streaming" inputs ( AIR which is Devialet AIR protocol, AirPlay (App)Spotify, and UPNP) which are associated with the physical ethernet and wifi inputs. Those streaming inputs can't be turned off in the configurator. I only have the ethernet input enabled in my configuration for my 140 CI and all my music is streamed from Roon using AIR so that's the only input I want but I can cycle through Air, AirPlay, Spotify and UPNP inputs by pressing the input button on the remote.
What the OP is asking about is the ability to turn off the unused streaming inputs so we don't have to unnecessarily cycle through them. While i've got 3 unused streaming inputs I can cycle through it's not a problem for me because I only have one physical input, ethernet, enabled and it will always default to AIR the moment I start streaming from Roon. I never use the input button on the remote because I have no need to use it but if I add a second input, say I plug digital input from an SACD player into Dig 1, and enable that input in the configurator, when I press the input button on the remote to change from using Ethernet/AIR to Dig 1, I'm going to have to press the button 4 times before I get to the Dig 1 input because currently I have to cycle through those 3 unused streaming inputs before the amp switches from ethernet to another physical input.
