    This post is related to this two -> https://forum.modalai.com/topic/827/sdk-version-1-1-3-issues-video-stream-breaks-reboot-issue?_=1670922006202 and https://forum.modalai.com/topic/770/streaming-stopping-after-running-once. It seems that whenever connection with the streamer is lost, it does not reconnect automatically. It requires I manually restart the voxl-streamer service and the cycle continues. There seem to be no fix currently.
    You can see the systemctl logs of the voxl streamer below.

      It would be nice to have at least the service failing when this happens, so we can detect the issue and restart the service.

          @Chad-Sweet we found a solution for this. We had to make. A more detailled description of the issue can be found here->https://forum.modalai.com/topic/1647/voxl-streamer-does-not-handle-teardown-request-signal-correctly/2. We can share this patch if necessary.
