You'll need to e-mail support, otherwise I won't be able to send you a patch to try

thanks Dennis, I have already sent the email

[Paul]

Sorry, either I'm not seeing it or it didn't get through... Can you PM me your name or e-mail this was coming from? It's hard to relate forum nicks and e-mails sometimes

I've got the same problem, my version is 2.1.8 running on Windows XP. My TV is a Samsung LE40C579 and it sometimes looses connection to the server and is not detected again until i restart the mezzmo server, also changing directory takes some time now and then until i restart the service... May i send an email to the support address that you can send me a patched version too? I also have problems playing some mkv files, error message is: video codec not supported. Here is the ffmpeg output of some of the files in question:
