stream authentification over SqueezeNetwork

[aleggs]

Hi All
I've tried to access a restricted Icecast2-Stream with my SqueezeBox2 over SqueezeNetwork. It didn't work.

This is what I've done:

- Log into Squeeze-Network
- Adding following Favourite:
http://username:password@server1.domain.com:8000/mountpoint.m3u

- Accessing the Favourite via the SB
- no answer ;-/

When I do this over my Webbrowser over http - everything works fine.

I don't know whether the SB2 doesn't allow this kind of http://-based auth? It works perfectly with my ROKU Soundbridge though.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

hi All
sorry for bothering again - but this is really important to me.

Does anyone know whether Squeezenetwork allows Access to UID/Password encoded Streaming-URLs like:

http://user:pass@server.com:8000/listen.pls

??

Thanks for any feedback on this.
