I'm completely flummoxed by an error that is becoming very serious. I use a dedicated server with Centovacast, and a dedicated machine at our end with SAM Broadcaster.  This combo has worked brilliantly for about nine months.  But now, we barely get 30 minutes of streamlining without a fatal error.  As far as I can see, the error is with Centovacast.  here's the log from the most recent session. The only thing that starts streaming again is a reboot, which you can see at
<04/08/11@20:53:46>.

Any suggestions really appreciated...

I don't see where this shows the issue is with Centovacast.  It just shows that you re-started the stream.

Why don't you put in a ticket with Centova?

Thanks.
