SSDP Local Peer Discovery: Could not open multicast socket

by Guest on 2014/09/04 09:41:38 PM    
Hello

On start up I get this message; does anyone know more about multicast sockets? Or a possible fix? Windows 7 64 bit w/ Tixati 1.98 64bit


SSDP Local Peer Discovery: Could not open multicast socket: Address not available (will retry in 5 minutes)


Thanks for looking

I am pretty sure you have checked a box that you should not have. I have looked for a definition of that feature but I have not found it. I think it is for discovering a peer on your local network. So it should not be checked if no one else on your local network is torrenting the same file. Settings/transfers/general you will find ssdp peer discovery near the bottom set it to disable.
That said don't change default settings unless you know why. I would suggest you find the box in settings to bring all default settings back.

OP, don't worry about it unless you are trying to communicate with other computers on your Local Area Network.

Even then it doesn't really matter.

Multicast is just a protocol used for discovery of nearby computers.  This won't matter.
