While broadcast Mixxx disconnects... and when you try to reconnected it says "Mixxx successfully connect to server", but it is not connected. Go to your stream server and you see no client is connected, try it connect again and nothing happens, no status messages as if to say "already connected", "successfully connected", "fail to connect", or "disconnected"

The only wait to back broadcasting again is to close and reopen MIxxx and reconnect then it works.

please post the mixxx.log file from a faulty run.

%APPDATA%\Mixxx\mixxx.log

If it is not your recent run, it may has a suffix like mixxx.log.5

It looks like Mixxx does not release the socket after the socket error

I am afraid not, sorry.
I have just digged through the Mixxx and the libshout 2.4.0 code, but I have not found anything suspicious.
Unfortunately I cannot reproduce this issue on Windows and I have no access to a windows machine to test this.
We need a Windows based contributor, who is able to reproduce the issue.

Hi- yes this is what happens to us- see my report https://bugs.launchpad.net/mixxx/+bug/1552312

Identical! It looks like a buffer overload due to a conflict with the latest update of Windows 10 and Mixxx V2. We are about to go 24/7 and were planning on using Mixxxx so please please please advise on a fix!!!

(64bit, 320kbps streaming, recording shows, 3 different laptops and configs but all W10)

This is also true for Linux. I changed all my systems from Windows and now I am using Linux Mint and The results are the same. If Mixxx disconnects while streaming, when you try to reconnect it prompts that you were reconnected, but when you check your streaming server you realize that Mixxx never reconnected and no matter how much times you try to reconnect from there on, it will never connect, until you restart Mixxx.

Hi Jay,

please provide the mixxx.log file from a run, where reconnecting has failed.
you will find it at ~/.mixxx/mixxx.log.x where ix is the number of Mixxx runs since then.

I have also prepared a Mixxx 2.1 alpha version that has additional debug messages.
https://launchpad.net/~nschloe/+archive/ubuntu/mixxx-nightly

If the issue still happens with this build, please post the mixxx.log as well.

Thank you.

By the way: we have currently issues with our build server so we cannot provide a Windows 2.1 build.
If one can provide one, it would be great.

Hi There,

Is there any update? I'll be installing the 2.1 alpha now with pretty much the same environment.
Will post updates
