I've searched and searched, but haven't figured out why I'm getting the following error.. I can view streams via mjpeg fine, but when I switch to MPEG, I get these socket errors.. .Any ideas? Thanks!

Finally found something that seems to have fixed it..

In the images tab there is a section for MPEG_LIVE_FORMAT, remove the SWF from there and leave it blank.... That fixed it for me.. Still going to play with it some more... but at least I no longer get the socket errors :)

I am having the same problem, but the workaround posted above does nothing to improve my situation. I actually cannot observe any consequence of this message other than the fact that it's filling my log files with error messages.
