Doesn't work after waking PC from sleep

I have to say that I am really loving Serviio. I use it to stream from my Win 7 64 bit PC to my Samsung TV.

However generally speaking I put my PC to sleep each night or when not using it for a period of time.

On waking the PC, Serviio does not appear on my TV even if the TV is turned on after the PC is wakened.

I have tried stopping and starting Serviio but this makes no difference.

Exiting and restarting Serviio just crashes the program.

The only option to get it working is to reboot the PC.

Any help gratefully appreciated.

So I have the latest 1.2.1 serviio on both Laptop (windows 8 x64) and Desktop (windows 7 x64). The wake-up-from-sleep breaks it on desktop only. It works fine on the laptop regardless of sleep cycles. I wonder if it is OS specific ;/ annoying though.

Can't be 100% sure, but I think we have seen it on most versions of Windows. I haven't noticed any that are known to work or known to fail, any more that any other, but will monitor in the future.

Given you have one that works and one that doesn't I wonder if you could assist with my theory. Please read this viewtopic.php?f=5&t=9909&p=70615&hilit=e1express#p70615 and then check your event log on both PC's after sleep. I am looking to see whether on the one that works, you see your network card restart and on the one that doesn't, you don't. Also as another test, does your laptop fail if you use a wired link rather than wireless? Thanks.

I'll check the network logs soon (cant run desktop since we dont have enough electricity for 12 hrs of the day, falling bakc to backup power and laptop only).
BUT , i have wireless N on both the desktop and wireless. a 802.11n usb dongle in case of desktop (no ethernet)
