[QUOTE="grubi, post: 277552, member: 52476"] I solved that problem. It is caused by the fact that in gentle.conf I had a connect string referring to the servername and not it's ip address although I specified an ip address in the tv-plugin connect dialog. It seems that this setting is derived from the server setting in setuptv.exe TV-Server settings. The problem also was that if you manually change that value in the gentle.conf on the client side it always gets overwritten as the client seems to poll that information from the server. If you try to change it manually on the server you also have to be careful that there can be multiple instances of gentle.conf which the server tries to keep in sync. So if you change the wrong on there your changes also get overwritten. Of course all this should have worked from the beginning if I had setup a working name resolution, however at home I had disabled NETBIOS for good reasons. [/QUOTE]
