    Ah ok, then this is the more probable case. For me it also takes a while until the multiseat server reconnects again. This I also tried to improve, but didn't find a way to force a quicker reconnection :(

    What about triggering an explicit reconnect if the connect fails? Which file / code is it?

    This is not that easy.

    I have already tested to shutdown all UPnP services in suspend and restart them on resume. Even this didn't lead to immediate reconnects for me.

    But it might be a local issue I have here: the HTPC (server) is only found via it's IPv6 address, while the IPv4 is not found. I expect some additional troubles by this.

    Let's start here, from TV provider. On startup it registers the UPnP proxy device:
    https://github.com/MediaPortal/Medi...der/UPnP/NativeTvProxyRegistration.cs#L60-L66 at the control point
    Method is defined here: https://github.com/MediaPortal/Medi...unication/UPnPClientControlPoint.cs#L121-L132

    The registered delegate is used when a new root device is added: https://github.com/MediaPortal/Medi...unication/UPnPClientControlPoint.cs#L153-L159.

    This event is invoked by the UPnPNetworkTracker: https://github.com/MediaPortal/Medi...erCommunication/UPnPClientControlPoint.cs#L65, which is defined https://github.com/MediaPortal/Medi...P/Infrastructure/CP/UPnPNetworkTracker.cs#L45.

    The UPnPNetworkTracker also has a "Search" method to lookup specific or all UPnP devices. It is executed at init of class. One idea I had already is to submit a new Search after resume to speed up connection, but this didn't work.

    I don't know that much about UPnP may be there's something special but normally shouldn't it work like this?

    Client <=> Server - Status: connected
    Client suspend - close connectiion / upnp

    Client Resume try to reconnect to the same server without a research (may be in a loop of 5-10 retries)

    So why is a new search needed at all?

    Thanks for all the links i'll have a look at it.[DOUBLEPOST=1452105806][/DOUBLEPOST]Mhm i'll try to add some debug code first to get an idea what happens. The UPnPNetworkTracker doesn't have any logging right now.

    The ServerConnectionManager seems to be interesting too or is it not relevant?

    @morpheus_xx can you play recordings after standby?

    If i remove the upnphelper / this code:
    // _upnpServer.UpdateAndAdvertise();

    it works again. It seems this does not work.

    Really? This is the change based on your patch, only extracted a new method from the network connection event handler...

    Yes i know. I was focused on livetv while implementing this but never tested recordings and never had the idea that this could break them ;-( still no idea what's the reason. I'll try to find out.
