Hello list,
I have set up a very basic qtss on our local
network. I do not plan on streaming any
movie content, only mp3 playlists. I now
have two playlists created on the server,
and I can use the 'Open Stream' command
from an iTunes client to play the stream
as expected.
However, I have also written a .m3u file
with multiple entries, following format
guidelines for such a document. When
I click on this file to open the stream,
I receive the following error in iTunes:
"The streaming server cannot accept any more
connections at this time."
I have the maximum number of connections
currently set to 50, with maximum through-
put set at 1 Mbps, so I do not think there
should be a problem like this. How can I
get the playlist to play correctly, using
a .m3u file to list multiple tracks in the
playlist?! I have attached a portion of
my .m3u file to the bottom of this message
so you may be able to help me determine
what is happening.
Also, the tracks from the .m3u file do
display in the iTunes browser. However,
I get the above error whenever I click
on any of them. The name that is shown
in the 'Song Name' field is also the
actual file name, and not the name that
I specified in the .m3u file. Can iTunes
not handle these documents correctly?
I have noticed that this happens with
other streams that use such a format, i.e.:

Any help with tracking down my problems
would be GREATLY appreciated. I have
been looking all over the Internet, as
well as Apple's Help, Web site, and
Discussions forums.
Thanks,
Jeff LeBel
