"Server unavailable"

Posted by: TN on 03 November 2013

Does anyone else have this issue?

 

I've noticed that after updating NStream to 3.5.7144 that I often get this message.  It often happens when I tap on NStream on the IPad to start to select albums to play and I have to wait for about a minute before the servers show up on NStream.  It also just happened when I was playing an album. Just as the album finished and I was about to select another, I got a message that there were no servers.

 

Now this is a recent occurrence as before I updated NStream, I didnt have this issue and every time I opened NStream I would find the servers.

 

I have RipNas and my back up server is a Synology 211j.  I've not changed any settings on the two servers.  My streamer is the NDS and I havent updated the NDS to 3.21.  I'm still on 3.16.000.

 Any thoughts?  Thanks.

My NDS and nStream are current versions.  The problem of 'server not found' is not new, but does appear to be more frequent now.   My usual fix Is to navigate back to the upnp server bit on nstream, then back out again.  However, this doesn't always work now, and I occasionally find that on navigating to upnp server on nStream that no server is visible!  The fix for me when this occurs seems to be to restart nStream (close it down on your iPad or iPhone, and 'swipe it away' on the iPad current software), although on one occasion I actually had to also restart my laptop (which I use to run Asset)

I used to get this, I found everything worked in 'compatibility' mode, but you then lost several features of n stream.

 

Since updating n stream and my qute to the latest versions, everything is fine. If upgrading is an option I would recommend that.
