Serviio disappears from network (but rarely)
I have a Mac mini running Sierra (fully updated). I've not exposed Serviio to the Internet; the unit only serves my local home network. It's connected via Ethernet to the switch. I have Roku's of various models (Model 2 or newer). The mini was put into service (as a Serviio box) about a month ago. Prior to that, I used a 2007 plastic MacBook.
Here's the problem: When using the Roku Media Player app, last night the Serviio just wasn't "there". I rebooted the Roku; same issue. Solution: I rebooted the mini and the Serviio was back online; perfect. BTW, I did check that the mini wasn't frozen by connecting to the mini via Remote Desktop. I did launch the Serviio Console on the mini (remotely) but didn't notice anything awry. Unfortunately, I did not scroll far enough down the page to see the Start/Stop button for the server. Perhaps I could have resolved this issue with two clicks of the mouse.
When I had this issue on the TVMobili box, I set that Mac to reboot every morning at 3AM and never again had any problem. If I need to schedule the mini to reboot itself weekly, I can do that. But what i'd love to find out is what is causing the probem on an otherwise perfect media server. I've looked at the mini's log files (in Utilities>Console) but I'm not really sure what to look for. I know it happened in the last few days (but hadn't used the Roku Media Player until last night) so I can isolate it to sometime in the last, oh, 3 days at most.
Suggestions are welcomed. Thanks!
