Resolve
Restart Windows Media Center and reconnect Windows Media Center Extender
This error occurs when Windows Media Center is abruptly closed on the Extender. You should restart the Windows Media Center PC and reconnect the Windows Media Center Extender.
If this error only occurs when attempting to access particular libraries, there may be content located in the media folders that is causing Windows Media Center to exit. Removing all content from the folders and then adding small amounts back may reveal a corrupt media file.
