duplicated device ids hard and annoying to remove

[JaxSie]

basically i used the adb.exe, 3.3.1 version, to run adb commands on my phone, while the gui wasnt running.
i had done what i wanted, and i closed the cmd without disconnecting anything,
i started the gui, gui using adb 3.2 version, and it was showing this under MDNS devices-
adb-tablet [tablet name]
adb-abcdefgh-abcdef [phone name]
adb-abcdefgh-abcdef (2) [phone name]
the [phone name] are same.

i can see my phone name and tablet name under home>connected devices, and the adb id shows the (2).
under connect>mdns devices, when i clicked on my phone name to connect, the original one stops loading after 2 sec, NOT connected, NO error pop up,
while the (2) loads and wants me to reconnect it (wired).
i tried disconnecting and killing and restarting the adb server manually but the original and (2) was still there.
i tried turning wireless debugging off and on and they were still there.
i tried forgeting the pc from wireless debugging but doesnt work.
i restarted my phone and then it is back to having the non (2), but it doesnt load my apps nor my displays, cameras and all that.
i off and on wireless debugging and then reconnected (wired) then only it was back to normal.

during all that is happening, i have a tablet connection, i can click on it and it works, sometimes requiring wired reconnecting but its working fine.

unfortunately i didnt take any screenshorts

is there a way to add say a right click on the mdns devices where right clicking the specific one disconnects it

scrcpygui is current latest version
windows 11
phone - android 15 hyperos 2.0.102.0 poco
tablet - android 14 hyperos 2.0.5.0 xiaomi

Basically, I'm not sure why there would be a duplicate mdns. My guess would be because of different adb daemon or something.

When this happens to me, the only way to get rid of the duplicate mdns is to shut down the phone for a while until it disappears from the discovered mdns.

The 'MDNS devices' only shows what it discovered. I dont have control over what is being broadcasted.

i restarted my phone and then it is back to having the non (2), but it doesnt load my apps nor my displays, cameras and all that.

Mdns devices with '(number)' have issue running adb or scrcpy command. This probably due to bad implementation on my part and I'll try to fix it. So for now, avoid connecting to the duplicate mdns, and refresh the scrcpy info from the device settings in the gui.

Thanks.

i got it fixed relatively painlessly but not sure if others can do that too.

refreshing scrcpy info doesnt do anything too btw. just shows the empty camera, display and all that.

i did restart my pc after manually killing and restarting adb.
i did ctrl a delete the contents in "adb_known_hosts.pb" cuz i saw my 2 same phone id in the file but it didnt remove the (2) so idk if that did anything.
