Placeshifter UI comes up on Server!

[xred]

OK so this is the strangest SageTV error I have ever experienced. I've been using Placeshifter for a while now with no issues, when it just decided to stop working about a week ago. Every time I try to run PS on my laptop, I hit connect and the server manager screen just disappears then reappears a second later.... no big deal I thought, must be the connection.

So I'm sitting at home (in front of the server) when I decide to try and test the Placeshifter on the LAN to see if it works.... and nada same issue. Then I look up and there is the Sage UI in a window on top of my Sage server UI.... for some reason the server is pushing the Placeshifter UI on to ITSELF and not out to the actual client.

Anyone had this before? Please tell me there is a quick and easy solution to this.

I think you should be able to resolve that by deleting the properties file for that Placeshifter client in the 'clients' subdirectory in your SageTV dir... or just delete the entire 'clients' subdir if you don't know which properties file applies.

Finally got a chance to try this and wanted to confirm it worked, though I'm wondering what could have corrupted the client profiles so I can avoid this happening in the future.
