MD Recaster BASS_error

I occasionally get an error on the screen using MB Recaster and a streaming url. I saw some posts about adding some info to the setup screen but I do not understand. Also the connection timer resets...any help or suggestions? I like that I can see how many people are connected  :)

I am using win 7
I run MB recaster with admin rights

I am using shoutcast v1
server info is XXX.XXX.X.XXX:XXXXX

It seems to run fine for awhile the the BASS_Error comes up.

I also notice that the connection timer will reset once in awhile too

I have seen this happening and sometimes it's a few times close together and others it can run for hours between it happening.

It seems to be caused by a dropout in the internet connection which is why the connection timer would reset, but it's hard to locate where and why the dropout happens, or if it's with the local or ISP end, because internet dropouts only seem to last for a second or two and are not noticed when accessing the internet generally. Lowering the bitrate didn't make any difference either.

I don't think it's the program as I've seen it with an alternative streaming program too.

I found MB re caster kept losing connection to my shoutcast server last time I tried it.  :bash:

Have you thought about Sound Empire Caster
