I played with the "max_retransmit_delay" setting in the
streamingserver.xml config file and I worked around the problem. I used
a lower value and it is acceptable for now.
More on "max_retransmit_delay":
from: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/QuickTime/QTSS/Concepts/chapter_2_section_8.html
qtssPrefsMaxRetransDelayInMsec For Reliable UDP, the maximum interval in
milliseconds between when a retransmit is supposed to be sent and when
it is actually sent. Lower values result in smoother but slower server
performance. By default, the value of this attribute is 500.
Of course it is only a work around for the problem. The problem is that
if there are no browsers started only a new browser would not begin
playing the movie. Instead of playing the movie I got the quicktime logo
(not the broken one) for 500 seconds. After these 500 seconds the movie
gets retransmited. So lowering the 500 seconds is only a work around.
