How to detect on Windows if MinimServer (+BubbleUPnP Server) is actively streaming?

Yeah, that's why I'm running a script via gpedit on shutdown to delete the minimserver.log (my HTPC is scheduled to restart every night).

The other issue that I've found is that by making BubbleUPnP Server's urlcache.dat read-only (i.e. rendering it permanently empty), after a restart it can become impossible to resume playback from BubbleUPnP's playlist on Android, i.e. BubbleUPnP doesn't know "where to look".

Just wondering: when BubbleUPnP Server's urlcache is thus disabled, is MinimServer keeping the urls in RAM or writing them as temp on disk locally - in which case they would disappear after each PC restart? The trace log reports regular reading-writing, which of course helps with my "stream-detection hack". If BubbleUPnP Server's urlcache is enabled, the MinimServer log simply stops after a while, as BubbleUPnP Server stores the url in its own cache and doesn't need MinimServer to "intervene".
