PS4 Media Player drops Serviio every 30 Minutes

I updated my PS4 Media Player to 3.50 last month. Ever since then I will be watching a video through Serviio and at around the 20 minute mark Serviio is disconnected and removed from the Media Server list. I've attached the Serviio log that shows the start and stop of the PS4 Media Player. There is a lot of chatter about this but no one has come up with how to resolve this problem. It is annoying to close the Media player app then open it again to get back Serviio and then 30 minutes later do it all again.

Is anyone else having this issue and has come up with a way to stop this from happening? I have looked on the PS4 forum and the problem is identified but no one has a solution. I've been using Serviio for 7 years and love it so I don't want to change to something else just because of a PS4 Media Player update.

Just tested something and it's getting weirder. Just watched a Sony movie through Serviio and didn't drop out over the 2 1/2 hour movie. I then played a 40 minute TV show and bam dropped out at 20 minutes?????????

I don't have this issue with my PS4 so it may be an issue on your local network. Media Player up to date, not sure of version number.
