Before I reinstalled windows os, the VLC updater updated the install of VLC to the current release. After that I immediately noticed that the streaming audio crashed after about 15 minutes of play. I have dual layer antivirus/antilogger. Also when this occurred the browser (firefox) was opened with http(s), or the explorer was opened and moving/copying files from one logical drive to another. There may be a problem in and around the access/http(s) protocol area. PLEASE look into this area. Right now I am using 2.0.5 so the http protocol is steady. Would like to go to the new release, however this problem stops that cold
