I open a QT on OSX first and open another QT on Win2k. Both tune in the
steam from OSX
but I didn't find what you said about the differenced between 1st and 2nd
clients.
Both of them are quite late with the same 2sec delay. Just to make it
clear, i found that
it's not the buffering delay like 'buffering 1.3sec'. It just displayes
'live broadcast' on the screen
bottom during that 2 seconds.
Another try: I also installed Quicktime Broadcaster on OSX and annouced a
live video
to local QTSS. I found there are more than 7 seconds time delay beteen the
real live
video and the qt player. Is that normal? (We used LiveChannel on OS9.2
before,
and it has only about 3sec delay. We thought using instant-on feature on qt6
and
0 buffer on QTbroadcaster should elimidate that 3sec delay.)
I think I must have some wrong configuration but couldn't get it...

I didn't touch the default xml file.

Sorry I am using qtss4.1.1. Quite lazy to put the patch number :).
But the 'Server API version is 4.0'.
Thanks again,
