Client: Mac OS X with iTunes 7.x

Build: 1668I have a strange issue when streaming m4v files. I can play my m4v videos I purchased at the iTunes store, but a minute or two into the stream I get a request for my admin firefly credentials.
– If I authenticate everything works great.
– If I cancel, it will continue to stream, but then request credentials again within a few moments.
– If I give the wrong credentials, it requests the correct credentials immediately.
It isn’t much trouble at all to authenticate, but I just thought it was kind of odd. Is this a feature? A bug? Weirdness between my particular client and server? Anybody else have a similar issue?

I assume you are using passworded itunes library?
I’ve seen that iTunes does a strange request while it’s streaming videos, but normally it gets a 404 since I’m not answering that request. But with password protection, I guess it pops up an authentication box.
Hrm.
I guess I’ll have to look closer at that and return *something*. 🙂
