Audio stops after 4 minutes and 30 seconds #177

Good evening,

I have recently switched to Scream from ich9 QEMU audio as it let's me have 5.1 audio. The problem I seem to be having is after 4 minutes and 30 seconds it stops and I have to restart the reciever. Scream doesn't report any errors in verbose mode, and it just stops. If I enable IGMP snooping I see that it drops the "239.255.77.77 " after that time. Even when I set the IGMP timeout to be much longer on the switch(Zyxel GS1920-24) on the IGMP Snooping Status screen it still shows it but the audio still stops. I have also tried as recommended in another post to disable IGMP Snooping but this doesn't fix it.

I have tried using unicast by adding the registry keys as recommended but it seems that I am not smart enough to understand how to use it as I add the registery keys, add -u to the scream command and it doesn't work(Just doesn't detect the stream). Hope you boys have some advice.

Just wanted to say right now I have it working by having a systemd user service restart after 180 seconds but this is obviosly not ideal.

Update, didn't get multicast working.. but I did find out why unicast didn't work... port 4011 wasn't allowed through the firewall.
