Gom player stopped working a few days ago. I din't install a new version, just from one minute to another. The gom forum says its a codec error, but I can't see how that could be as it was working before. I can't find the "codec finder" they say gom player has. I use the LQ non paided service. | ||

Hit the play button a half dozen more times after it told me it didnt work.. and it decided to work all of a sudden. I've been unable to watch live matches for ~2 weeks because of this.. And all it took was to spam play a more times. :/ Rageface. Ah well, I've watched the vods now and know how to deal with gomplayer. For those having the same problem, just keep hitting play  | ||

I used both firefox then Chrome same problem. I even went direct through the gomplayer with the GSL link. I believe its a server issue on their part or internet connection issue on our part... or even software issue (gom Player). Anyway, its working now. | ||

I have experienced the same error many times and mostly fixed it by hitting "play" till it works. This I believe is related to a short-term disconnect of the stream (ie. poor wifi, lag, network timeout or bottleneck). But whenever GomTV experiences a major break down (ie. too many simultaneous users), I believe that after they reset their streaming equipment, they post a new stream URL (to avoid another crash from users hitting play). The users clicking the pre-loaded/cached web page, will now get the error. And since most browser cache the recent pages, the users must do a hard refresh (or switch browser) which explains the part about why it sometimes works in other browsers. My conclusion is, there is no one step solution to fix this, but try with a little patience and methodical ruling out elements. It usually works for me. I hope this post may cast a little light on the problem and possible solutions to it. | ||

Opening ports solved the problem. Make sure your firewall + router have ports 80,843,63800 open (I'm not sure which of these is/are most important | ||

I understand why they are against restreaming and that's understandable - but it sure is frustrating when you keep getting that 51 error...! | ||

. Has there been any recent fix for this? I tried opening task manager and killing GomTVStreamerLive.exe, still getting error. Reinstalled a couple times, also tried Korean version, nothing worked. Could my router be blocking the connection and causing the error? | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

If you get this error when using a paid stream then there is something seriously wrong as it shouldn't be denying the connection. Note: the 0x00000071 error means the player can't connect to the GOM servers. | ||

Sadly, it's the only workaround that works for me too. I've not been able to watch the GSL for many months now, and killing the gomstreamer process, reinstalling or spamming the play button won't change anything... I want a twitchtv restream, gom's software is terrible | ||
