Some other things to check:
First, make sure that your server has an mp3 broadcast password. You
have to have a password configured for mp3 streaming. Second, make
sure that you are using the mountpoint in the url to access the
playlist, not the name of the playlist. When setting up an mp3
playlist in web admin, I usually preface the mountpoint with a "/"
character (i.e. /playlist).
I just tested a playlist configured in web admin on QTSS, and it is
working fine from iTunes via Advanced->Open Stream (using an http://
url) and via QuickTime Player via File->Open URL (using an icy:// url).

Try these url's in iTunes, they'll probably work. If you want to
test mp3/http streams inside QT Player use icy:// instead of http://.
Hmm... no dice. iTunes responds with nothing (doesn't even show a
connection attempt popup or anything) with any of the three
formats. Also tried all three in QT Player with icy:// , but got
the same "Paused" message as before.
BTW - One way to link to mp3/http streams is via a ".m3u" file.
This is simply a text file with the .m3u extension. Inside the
file put the http:// url to your stream (i.e. http://my.ip:8000/
playlist or http://my.ip:80/playlist). Link to this file from a
web page with a standard href tag. When clicked it should launch
the client's mp3 software of choice. Note that your web server
must be configured to deliver the correct mime type for m3u files
(i.e. audio/x-mpegurl .m3u).
Yeah, that part will be straightforward if I can get the
playlist to stream to begin with.
Thanks,
Scot
