Serviio "crashing" after several hours on Ubuntu 12.04

I had used serviio 1.1 -1.4 on an old Ubuntu 12.04 and never had any issues.
Installed serviio last week on a new install 12.04 Ubuntu new 64bit machine with Java java version "1.6.0_30"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.13.1) (6b30-1.13.1-1ubuntu2~0.12.04.1).
Works fine for a few hours and then just drops out. Meaning, right in the middle of watching a movie it will hang. Then no clients can connect to serviio server. status says serviio is running. console says it is running. all other services to the same folder serviio is serving (smb) work fine. Server has no hiccups.
sudo service serviio restart says that it stops serviio and starts it again
BUT sudo service serviio status says it is STOPPED. no clients show serviio service
sudo service serviio start will then start serviio and all clients can then play movies until it drops out again.
Any ideas? Thanks.

similar as you, but on fedora....
before two months, after some upgrade (of java, not serviio) suddenly stopped working, i have some problems to uninstall fedora's open java and donwgrade and installed:
- Code:
iveky@fedora64pc ~$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_51"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_51-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.51-b03, mixed mode)

After more testing.
I found this in the log
2014-03-02 09:00:22,975 ERROR [MediaServer] FFMPEG not found. Serviio will not work properly.
It appears as if this might be a problem. I don't know if it is related by serviio is not making thumbnails of my personally created videos (although it does get the cover art from online sources).
I do have ffmpeg installed.
- Code:

Serviio works well for awhile and then stops, so it is mostly working. I think I need to deal with the ffmpeg problem first.
Can somebody please post the file that contains that path to ffmpeg, please?
Thanks

I'd look at the serviio
wiki and compile your own build of ffmpeg

I guess I'm confused, this was a fresh download on a fresh server install and this page seems to indicate that ffmpeg is included in the build. What am I missing?
http://www.serviio.org/downloadDoes this mean that it is not the right build for 1.4?
Thanks

Now that I look the download page says that,
This release includes FFmpeg (post) 1.2.1 compiled using this source code, li
Apparently it did not install it (or that version), or I did not do it correctly. I just looked over the Readme file again. I guess I will have to see how to get FFMPEG to a later version. Not sure why ubuntu is not updating it. I guess I will try the compile method, although that sounds like it is fraught with disaster
FFmpeg
------
This software includes (in its Windows and OSX distributions) FFmpeg (a great video library).
Source code used to build it can be found here:
http://download.serviio.org/opensource/ ... f19.tar.gz*Linux* users should use the latest FFmpeg included in their OS distributions or compile the above sources. It should
include librtmp for RTMP streaming support and libass for subtitles rendering.

Update,
I tried to just compile ffmpeg from source. As expected I just got errors all over the place when I was following the directions listed from ffmpeg here
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/UbuntuCompilationGuideServiio worked so well on my old server. I guess it might be time to throw in the towel on this one. Doesn't seem to be happening.
Thanks.

Good stuff, as I said before using the serviio
wiki ffmpeg build guide is the way to it.

So the thumbnails started working a few hours later. It may have just been a time thing. I'm not sure how long it takes them to run the code that makes them. Or it could be that I turned off online sources. Either way, they are working now and serviio has not crashed since did it.
Thanks for everybody's help.

Now I have checked this on another machine where I run ubuntu 10.04 with serviio 1.3.1 ... the same thing except that there is no ffmpeg errors in serviio logs ...
all the problems started with the last java update ... weird ... especially since on windows machine serviio is running without any problems without crashing ... could it be that new java is not compatible with serviio? but then how it works on windows .... weird ... please help ..

dcraw is not required, unless you want to see RAW images you can ignore this error
