How to log off clients

We have two clients in my home. If one is watching a show, of course the 2nd one can't change the channel. It will say something to the effect of other clients are currently viewing live TV, etc. How can you change this so it will prompt you to change the channel even though the other client is currently on live TV. Sometimes my kids leave the TV on and when they go to bed I'm stuck downstairs and can't watch a show without having to go upstairs and select "stop playback"

Are we talking PC's? How about using VNC to shut down the other client?

Or you could just add another tuner.

Yes they are PC's. And yes, I could do either of these options but I just figured I was missing something a little more.. practical. A simple yes/no prompt to change the channel would be nice.

But how would you like somone to do that to you in the middle of watching a TV program? You could try using nielm's webserver from you PC. This will let you either stop or turn off other clients among some other functions that might benefit you. You'll find it here: Sage Webserver
