A useful feature would be the ability to “disconnect” a client viewing using the DVR Status screen. Have a “disconnect” button next to the status line like “Watching ch751 from 192.168.1.216”
Case example: I left the ATV running with ch751 open. When I got to work and saw that the item was still streaming it would be useful to remotely disconnect it to allow freeing up the tuner if needed.

This isn’t for server, it’s for clients. The IP address would be that of the Apple TV. Using this, you can stop playback, which would of course immedialty disconnect from the tuner.
