Abstract
A system and method for automatically determining if certain operational states of a plurality of networked media appliances are causally connected with those appliances becoming unstable and/or having a software crash. Once these certain operation states are identified, a command prohibiting each of the networked media appliances from entering the identified state is generated and transmitted to the media appliances. The generated commands effectively insulate the media appliances entering the prohibited state, thereby eliminating a possible cause of a software crash without requiring the appliances to undergo a software update or the installation of a software patch.
