Squeezebox Problem. Again.
Probably Stratmangler will answer this in 2.5 seconds.......The Logitech Media Server keeps stopping, and I have to keep restarting so I can listen to music stored on an attached hard drive.
My question is why?
And is there a longer term fix to stop it happening?

First thing I'd check Craig is for networking gremlins.
Easy solution: switch everything off at the plug, including your router/hub..whatever.
(Don't switch your amps off)
Switch back on in this order:
* Router/Hub
...then leave it a few minutes before switching everything else on.
then
* External drive
* SB touch
See what happens after that.
Assuming all things equal...90% of squeezebox issues can be solved by a network reset like I detailed above.

What device is the hard drive in question connected to?
Are you running LMS on a NAS/Server? Or are you using the touch as both server & player?
Cheers, Will

From memory you're running TinySC on the Touch player itself, with a USB HDD hanging out the back of the Touch.
Is the USB HDD powered, or does it draw its power from the Touch?

Dunno about having a good memory - it's turned into Groundhog Day

It's powered Chris.
I've tried what Gaz suggested, still keeps dropping LMS, and until I do a ' Start LMS server' again, the player disappears off my Ipeng device
