Hi wt0, I'm trying to use the app in my daughter's bedroom - they key point there being that I'd like it to be plugged in and out of reach and just available as and when required.
I've configured it, and it runs perfectly when connected, but if for any reason the server goes down for any length of time (something quite likely, as it's running on a PC that's not on 24x7), it often refuses to reconnect. I've set it to auto connect on start, and also set the max retries to infinite, but it seems to give up after a while and will only connect if I manually press the connect button. The infinite retries does seem to work for a while i.e. if I reboot the server, I can see it repeatedly failing to connect, and then eventually reconnecting, but if the server's down for longer periods (e.g. overnight, as when it is off), when I go back to the app, the "connect" button's green again and it's given up trying. When I do press it, it connects just fine. I've noticed the same behavior on both a Galaxy S3, and a Nexus 7 - it's consistent. I did wonder if perhaps Android was stopping the app, so I even set up a llama profile to automatically restart the app every 5 minutes - but that didn't seem to work either. I've also been running the app in the foreground (i.e. with Launch in Background disabled). Do you have any tips for completely unattended operation and automatic connection when the server's available? Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mruddo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=65325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98049 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
