This problem is somewhat tricky, becouse its not always your fault. I mean, sometimes the gom server cant send you the video stream 8(.

In my case, if reinstall did not work, even format C: did not work, but after some time, worked alone.

*Important: if you are watching a stream, and gom suddenly stops, dont press play! Press Stop, wait 5-10 seconds then press play. That way you lower the chances of the gom streamer to bug.

Reinstall the streamer (not the gom player). Easiest way to do this is to uninstall the streamer then run GSL and it will automatically download.

Ahh might have to try the task manager thing. I got this error really annoying.

Most of the posts I've seen everywhere else (including on the Gom site) suggest that error 51 is caused by a non updated version of Gom Player. This may be one cause, but is not the only reason, as I made sure my player was up to date.
Bleh.

This problems seems to be an on and off thing, which could be at GOM's end instead of ours. For example, i had this problem for a couple of days before i could view the stream again with no remedy to it.
