Bill.

Doing an auto restart after adding new music shouldn't be too hard. I'll experiment a bit and post something tomorrow.

For the second part, what do you mean by stopping and starting the server? If you mean doing the equivalent of selecting 'Stop' and 'Restart' from the minim icon, this should be scriptable. If you want to completely stop the server process, MinimWatch can do that but wouldn't be able to restart it later.

Hi Simon, I have Minimserver on my office File server. I would like to be able to use Windows Scheduled Tasks to turn Minimserver on an off to match my working hours. This means that the music is not accessible to anyone out with these hours.
