@staresy noticed a while ago that FollowMe/Transfer didn't work properly
on Windows 10 and I noticed myself that it needed a tweak for pCP or it
failed totally. Apparently, the method of saving a temporary playlist to
the filesystem and resuming it is not foolproof on every OS. Looking in
the source of Material, I noticed @cpd73 took a different (clever!)
approach for his TransferQueue function - namely briefly sync the
source/target players and then unsync them and kill off the source.
:cool:

I've now implemented this for MediaServer and it seems to work much more
fluidly, while also not leaving temporary files in the playlists folder.
Another advantage is that if the target player was in a sync group, the
playlist is now transferred to all of the players in that group, which
was not the case before.
