i just opend a file from my laptop and smartphone - and server doesnt auto restart, so the problem is related to my pc.
I wonder what could be the reason for this...

The first log shows that there have been written *.jpg files to one of your MinimServer content directories and thus the Auto Restart package initiated a MinimServer restart. I think that these files have been written by the Windows Media Player. You may not notice these files as they are usually hidden in Windows. With the

Code:

intotifyExclude=@eaDir|Thumbs\.db|^.*\.(jpg|JPG|png|PNG|gif|GIF)$

setting, the Auto Restart package should ignore when the Windows Media Player writes the *.jpg files. With this setting, please validate again whether MinimServer restarts when you play a track with the Windows Media Player. If so, please post the corresponding log-file.

The VLC player seems to open and close an audio file for writing when it is played, this is what I was able to reproduce and what your second log shows. I don't know why the VLC player does this, it may be a bug in VLC.

Please also try playing an audio file with Winamp. This shouldn't initiate a restart at all. If it does nonetheless, please also post the corresponding log-file. Many thanks!
