Ok. I guess we´re facing the same problem. I will have a look at the source code at the weekend. I´ve seen some reconnect attempt at midnight. Maybe it runs into a timeout.
I have the same problem with mpd:
INFO | jvm 1 | 2015/12/05 20:32:40 | 2015-12-05 20:32:40.037 [WARN ] [inding.mpd.internal.MpdBinding] - Failed to communicate with ‘mpdcubie’
Commands executed without problems but track and artist name does not updated. I need to switch tracks (streams) few times.
This problem appeared when i play internet radio streams. My player is mpd.
I suppouse this problem will be resolved in 1.8 version.
I believe this problem still occurs? I am running openhab 2 with the new mpd binding and after some time openhab stops receiving anything from mpd - play stop commmands and track info
