Hello, 6.5 is the only SlimServer version I've ever tried where the service just appears to stop intermittently for no reason at all. I can't find any rhyme not reason to why/when it stops. It can stop over night very occasionally (may be due to nightly scan?), it can stop whilst I'm splayed out on the lounge floor deep into the music, it can stop when listening to BBC radio, it can stop when I open up a the gui in a browser on another machine (I use Fishbone Tan if it has any bearing). None of these are reproducible and none are constant. I guess on average it crashes once every two days. Usually there is nothing in the Windows event viewer.
It crashed last night and there is an entry in the event viewer although I am very dubious as to whether it was produced at the time of the crash. Here it is: The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( Application ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer.

I don't use Music Logic or Music Brainz. Other things in the event viewer (produced at different times) that I have no idea whether they are to do with SlimServer or not are: The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( Application ) cannot be found.

The following information is part of the event: CreateService failed: The specified service already exists And also a couple of "Slimserver Service hung on starting". I must stress that I have no idea if these occured at the time that the service stopped. When I first replcaed 6.3.1 with a 6.5 beta (what seems like years ago). I did a completely new uninstall and install, deleting the Program Files/Slimserver directory. Since then I've done at least two completely clean installs of 6.5. I'm on XP and using the 6.5.1 nightlies (this last crash happened with last night's nightly). The random SlimServer service stops have abeen happening ever since I first installed 6.5. At least one cause of the problem at one time seemed to be the Music Info plugin. I run these plugins (all 6.5 verion): AlienBBC Music Info Last FM SlimScrobbler Lazy Search (only installed this recently, crashes occured before it was installed) I've disabled the majority of the plugins that come with the SlimServer installtion, leaving only: CLI Date and Time Random mix Rescan Music library Save Playlist I run Nod32 and have excluded .myi files from the scan. Any help appreciated (or even any "Me too's"!). Thanks MC -- ModelCitizen Now what? Squeezebox3 (linear PSU) > Benchmark Dac1 > Naim NAC 82 > Naim NAP 250 > Shahinian Arcs.
