This is going off topic, but nerys brought up a good point. And this is something I haven't thought about but should be in a feature request for the next SageTV release, which is to restrict control from the SageTV Client. Currently, the client has full control of the server, there's no way to lock the client out of things such as Detail Settings, Tuner Setup Wizard, Channel Setup, etc. Would be nice to be able to lock the interface down to "Playback Only" mode just incase you don't want someone who don't know what they are doing and messing up the server settings.
