hi there,
i too am new to QTSS & i have the same problem of mp3 playlists. but i
hope ur mail will surely help me. when i run mp3 playlists & access it
from other comp. the error is 404:not found, u would be quite familiar
with it. but movies are running fine.
in ur mail u have mentioned about setting a webpage with link to .mu3
file & then u wrote something about webserver. but i think i don't have to
create a webpage if i access it directly from Quicktime.
Then all i have to do is to create a playlist with a text file as
described by u.right?
one thing more. r .sdp files generated for mp3 playlists? cos i have
noticed they r not present for mp3 playlists.
i hope u could help me.
thanking u in advance..
Ashish
