Serviio on Windows 10

Hey,

This is more of a post in regards to troubleshooting future issues on Windows 10, since I'm sure it will happen.

I downloaded Serviio a few days ago and from the beginning it was working perfectly. However, today i tried loading it up on my TV and it wasn't up. As if it was turned off. So i came back to my computer and stopped the server. When i clicked "Start", however, it froze up after about 10 minutes of trying to start. I force closed the console and tried to open it up. Clicking the icon did nothing, although in task manager it showed Serviio Console.exe running. After a few reboots and a reinstall, it simply wouldn't open. So i attempted to run it in compatibility mode (Windows 7) and it started up fine. Not sure if this is an error with the program but it was irritating at first. Hopefully this will help anyone else with a similar issue.

(Right click the shortcut, properties, Compatibility tab, Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows 7)

Re: Serviio on Windows 10

Some people (such as myself) have had no issues at all with Windows 10, while others have. I don't know if it relates to something else on their computers, such as anti-virus.

Remember that the start/stop button on the console does NOT control the actual Serviio service. It only controls the DLNA server portion. The only way to stop the service is from the Services applet, or using the Serviio menu under the Windows start button menu. It is strange that a reboot did not reset your service and restore everything.
