A problem like this is usually caused by a network issue with UPnP multicast discovery. It might help to power off all your network equipment and power it on again, as described in this section.

Thanks. I will try and let you know!

EDIT: Rebooting my RPi helped.

I cheered too early. Rebooted my RPi another time and icon remains grey... Have to relaunch manually. There's definitely a difference with MinimWatch 0.8, I noticed immediately after upgrading. MinimWatch 0.8 always turned green right away when MinimServer daemon became active on my RPi. Will look if I still have MinimWatch 0.8 in my backup and re-test.

Good morning! Booting my PC (running MinimWatch) MinimWatch 2 icon remains grey...(my RPi is always on, my PC not). Would not have been the case with MinimWatch 0.8, that would have turned green immediately. Have to exit and then restart MinimWatch and yes it turn green again. MinimWatch 0.8 behavior was solid as rock as opposed to MinimWatch 2 being unpredictable (sometimes it does automatically connect / reconnect, sometimes it does not).

A little bit of strange experience going from free to paid licensed service... :-)

2020-10-19 Waking my PC from sleep. MinimWatch 2 icon is grey and remains grey... Have to manually exit MinimWatch 2 and start again... Now it turns green.
