Sony Devices Inconsistently Find Serviio on Boot

I have a PS3 and a BDP-S390. Both are updated to the latest firmware and receive DHCP addresses.

Servio is installed on a machine with a hard-coded address (and this address is specified in the config field). It was the only way I could get the clients to associate to it at all. All devices are connected via gig switch on a flat class C LAN (192.168.0.x/24).

Now I am having intermittent connections with the clients. When I turn on either device, sometimes the Serviio shows up, and some times it doesn't. Sometimes doing a full unplug of the devices allows it to find the server, other times it will just show after a while.

I am running the custom "US" profile found on these threads to get the S370 working.

I haven't had it drop off while playing media (although I haven't done a lot of testing in that respect).

Since I can't seem to find a pattern, this is making me crazy trying to troubleshoot it.

Any ideas??

sounds to me like the profiles are clashing are you using 0.4 or 0.5rc1? if you have 0.5 have you selected the correct profiles for the devices from the serviio console?

I am on 0.4 and replaced the sony section with the customized profile.

How can I get access to 0.5? I PM'd Zip about testing Betas but have not heard back as yet.
