    Any idea where I would look for those types of settings?

    It depends upon which firewall software you are running on your PC and your brand of router, have you recently changed routers or firewall on the PC?

    I'm using Windows Firewall (Windows 7). I'm using the Netgear Nighthawk X6 for my wifi. I haven't upgraded the router f/w, current Firmware Version V1.0.2.44_1.0.96.
    V1.0.2.44_1.0.96

    Can you please try temporarily disabling the firewall in the router to see if this is causing the problem. If the problem still occurs you can try disabling the Windows Firewall instead to see if this is where the problem lies.

    Access control has never been enabled. I've disabled Windows Firewall and will test it over the next few days to see how it behaves. What do you think about Symantec Network Threat or Proactive Threat? You think one of those services could be causing problems?

    Yes either of these can cause a problem if they start blocking packets to/from Mezzmo server.

    Does the mezzmo server communicate with the media player over specific ports so I can try to make sure they're always open?

    Well, it's been quite a while since I made the change, and unfortunately, I am still having the issue. To restate, I'll provide the scenario I experience.

    I'll be in a folder that has multiple titles - lets say a season of a TV Show. So I'll be watching one episode after another... take a break... and continue watching them.... Lets say after a day or so I want to watch something else... so I'll go back up through the hierarchy until I get to the top view. Then, I'll go try to go back down the hierarchy... and this is where I usually run into a problem.... Let's say my hierarchy looks like this:

    VIDEO / TV SHOWS / TVSHOW1, TVSHOW2, etc... As soon as I traverse the tree and go into a different TVSHOW folder, I will stop seeing titles, and instead just see the ".."

    The only way I've been to get around this is to restart the MezzmoMediaServer.exe service.

    Is this normal behavior?

    Is there any type of logging I can run to capture anything useful ?

    Thanks
    Joe
