I contacted support and they advised me to do a complete reinstall of Sam Broadcaster (including the database), reconfigure the software and add my music but that's the last thing I want, that's a massive amount of work since I don't have the same folder structure in Sam and on my NAS. My database is a MariaDB 10.3.29-1038 which runs on my Synology NAS (DS920+). SAM Broadcaster is a professional DJ system that allows you to stream audio over the internet to listeners across the world. I reinstalled Sam Broadcaster but restored the folder c:\Users\\AppData\Local\SpacialAudio\SAMBC\ from my old installation. Create your very own online radio station. I had this problem after I updated from Window 10 but also after I decided to do a complete reinstall of Windows 11. Typically this would be under C:Program Files (x86)SpacialAudioSAMBCSAMBC.exe. In the shortcut wizard select the browse button and browse to the SAMBC.exe file in your SAM Broadcaster installation. I use Stereo Tool 9.63 as the only plug-in. On your desktop, right click and select New > Shortcut from the context menu. To restart Sam Broadcaster I have to kill that process and restart it. The GUI disappears completely but in the task manager SAMBC.exe (32 bit) is still running. Since I updated to Windows 11 Pro my Sam Broadcaster Pro (2021.5) crashes every couple of days.
