When adding a block field under admin/structure/ds/fields/manage_block the entities' select displays the block title of the first block for all blocks inside a view, even though the blocks have different names (and also machine names).

This can be solved by supplying different block names in the view.

Thanks for the super quick reply!
That's a good hint for a workaround.

May I still suggest to add the machine name of the block - instead of the admin name? It's unique within the view already and does not require extra naming.

The current behaviour is correct.
When creating a view block the admin label is generated automatically so usually there is no extra work.
