Just got back home. The server was shut down so I had to re-enable it within the DVR server app on the Shield (Shield was otherwise working normally).
I don't see any option to upload logs for the server and you can't attach text files, so I have copied below the timing around the crash event. Sorry in advance for the long text field...
Let me know what else I can do and what errors you find that could have crashed the server. Any update on a fix for the commercial timestamp bug?
