Issues with disconnects on Mac - Samsung UN46ES6100

Hey guys,

I recently started having issues with my Samsung UN46ES6100 having what appears to be the drop of connection issue that I've seen mentioned here in the forums. This seems to happen with whatever file type I'm trying to play, whether mp4 or mkv, and no matter what the size of the file. The mark does seem to be about half an hour as a previous post described. This happened with a 1080p Bluray weighing in around ~11GB, as well as a TV episode that was around a gig. My MacBook Pro has been the host running Serviio to stream this to the Smart TV functionality of my Samsung TV, and when this happens I'll get a "device disconnected" error with my only option to close out of Serviio. When back at the "videos" section of "AllShare", Serviio isn't detected until I turn the TV off and back on again.

I've tried both wireless and through my Cisco SG200 switch to the TV (both of which [the TV and MacBook] are on the same switch) and this continues to happen. I'm running the 1.1 version of the Serviio software considering that 1.2.1 will just bounce in my dock and won't open at all when I tried it.

I tried grabbing detailed logs for additional insight, but it doesn't appear I can do that with the Mac client from what I've looked through in the app.

Can anyone help?

Yes, but the users in the aforementioned post are going through the switch in their router where uPnP would apply, whereas both the Mac and the TV are plugged into the same Layer 2 switch. Multicast support has been enabled as well.
