Hey guys
I'm using MC18 in various systems, as a media server, streaming music to different types of clients:
1. To another PC running MC-18, connected through WiFi.
2. To Sonos wireless streamers
3. To iPhone (using JRemote) and Android (Gizmo), connected via WiFi or 3G with port-forwarding.
In all those cases, the media-clients play from the media-server library.
The Media Server typically runs on Windows-7 dedicated machines.
The problem I get - whenever something goes wrong with the local network (i.e. when the WiFi router stops functioning), the MC-18 Media-Server will crash.
Is there something I should to to prevent this ?
Thanks,
Yair

We've made some improvements in MC19 that allow Gizmo to work better with unreliable signals, and there is a mysterious crash that we're trying to fix.

You might be able to help by providing logs.  See Logging on our wiki.

Thanks for that, the crash is not only when using Gizmo, but when streaming to another MC18.
I think you should identify "offline status" in a similar manner that is allowed by Outlook when used with Exchange sever. I know it's not the same, just pointing out an example.
