This means that the device running MinimServer/MinimStreamer is either not connected to the internet or has incorrect DNS settings.

I'm at a loss for words Simon. It's not just one device - I have two set ups on two separate NAS's and I tested the playlist on both of them. I've had both NAS for years now and I haven't had the slightest problem with either of them. Yet here I am with both of them losing internet connectivity at the same time. I just can't understand it.

I've rebooted both of them and internet connectivity is now restored and the playlist is playing as it should (on both NAS). So apart from some personal embarrassment, all is now well. I'm not very tech savvy, but I should have spotted something as glaring as that. Sorry for wasting your time - but thanks for your help.
