Someone marked this problem as 'solved', and while I found a workaround, i don't exactly think it is solved.
It seems like this exception should be handled so that others can avoid this fate in the future. I may take a wack at fixing this myself, but I haven't ever actually looked at the PC source, so it might be awhile.. :)
In the meantime, here is all of the relevant detail as per the Issue reporting guidelines:

The device and operating system (including version number) that PlexConnect is installed on:

The device and operating system (including version number) that the Plex media server (PMS) is installed on:

The PlexConnect version number. If using Github source then a time and date of download (look at the creation date of the folder) and if you are using any non-standard setup e.g. Plexify or a fork.

A detailed description of the issue (the clearer you can make this the better):
Somehow my PMS grabbed an invalid JPEG as one of the backgrounds. You can
get this file here:
If this is configured as the background for the show (Doctor Who (2005) and
in PlexConnect open:
Trailers -> Library -> TV Shows -> All Shows -> Doctor Who (2005)
I get a "Trailers is unavailable. Try again later." error message. IIRC,
this also happens if I try to open an episode from the On Deck circle, but I
did not capture that for the logs.
If I change the background for the show everything goes back to working
hunky-dory. While this is an adequate workaround for me, it seems that this
exception could be caught and handled a bit more gracefully.
Here is the relevant log snippet (with a link to the full logs below)
