sounds drops after a few minutes of playing

Periodically, the soundtrack will stop when streaming to the PS3. No issues with the video, only the audio. I think it only occurs with mkv files with DTS soundtracks. Simply stopping and restarting the stream always fixes it and rarely does it have an issue twice in the same movie.
The attached logfiles had the issue occur in the middle of the following file:
M:\ServerFolders\Videos\Movies\Kids\Disney\Pixar\Cars2.mkv

Also, I think this has occurred at least since 4.2.x, maybe longer. I finally caught it in a log file. Sadly, this log file did not have trace turned on. I'll upload a new one if I can catch it again.

Hi danielt, can you please try doing the following steps and seeing if it happens again?

1) Go into C:\Program Files (x86)\Universal Media Server\win32\
2) Delete tsMuxeR-new.exe
3) Copy/paste tsMuxeR.exe and rename it to tsMuxeR-new.exe

Then we can see if the issue is the newer tsMuxeR

Thanks Subjunk!!! I've made the mod and will stream some movies through the week and see if that fixes it.

OK, significantly improved. Only occurred once in probably 20-25 movies watched vs. once every 4 or 5. I just updated to 5.0.0. Do I need to do the same file transfer?
I'll also try and capture a log file if have another event.
