This is showing up in my logs, and i have no idea what is causing it and can't find any more details elsewhere.

Dropping application (stream_app/_definst_) message. Clients not allowed to broadcast message.

It doesn't happen very often, about once every 1 to 2 days.  Any help would be appreciated.

    We just resently started having this same problem.  We are distributing live video streams using RTMFP. 

    Dropping application (multicast/_definst_) message. Clients not allowed to broadcast message.

    What does this message mean? 

    I've noticed that the stream will stop publishing from the server to the mulitcast group.  This happens multiple times a day on all 11 of our live streams.

    Also, I can fix the live multicast stream if I stop and restart the encoder.
