Before rebooting I saved then cleared the current log, so what's here should just relate to the most recent reboot and error message. The plot thickens! I just got home from a shopping trip, booted up the pc and, for only about the fourth time, MinimWatch started seamlessly! So I went into ~/.config/autostart/ but there is no file: minimwatch.desktop There is a MinimWatch file with a pale purple icon, described in Properties as Type: desktop configuration file (application/x-desktop) Comment: remote control for MinimServer. "Opening" it simply seems to restart MinimServer. Dragging it into gedit produces this: [Desktop Entry] Name=MinimWatch Comment=Remote control for MinimServer Exec="/home/nick/minimwatch/bin/starti" auto Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=Other; Can you please confirm this is the file to add that line to; and what is the significance of the semi-colon at the end of the existing file: does it denote the end of the file or that particular line (or neither)? Sorry if I'm being dense or over cautious here. Thanks for your helpful comment on the crash file. I have been experiencing occasional glitches in the BBC R3 stream, which I had assumed were due to a fluctuating bandwidth or temporary glitches in the WLAN connection and this rather confirms it. I'm in rural France and our internet connection leaves something to be desired! |

You can add the extra line at the end of the file. The semicolon is part of the Categories setting. I am hoping that setting the additional delay to 10 seconds will be enough to solve the problem. When I have more information from you about this, I can make the necessary change to the code in MinimWatch. |

This is unexpected but it isn't a problem in MinimServer or MinimStreamer and therefore it shouldn't produce a MinimServer crash file. I will fix this in the next update to MinimStreamer. This problem is fixed in MinimStreamer 0.5.14. |
