What I can’t seem to get it a Firefly Music Server. Perhaps this is an issue with the Firefly prefs?
But it says it is not connected to a library. Does Firefly create its own library? I can’t seem to find one to connect to, and it will not connect to my iTunes library. Suggestions?
maybe a dumb question 😯 but you do have itunes sharing turned on in itunes preferences?? 😉

No, not on the soundbridge.. in your prefs pane, where the share name is set to something like:
“exceptionally extremely long name’s firefly media server on exceptionally extremely long name’s G4 tower”
Change that to “Music” or something, and see if that does it.
There is a 255 character limit on txt records, and I’m using quite a bit of that already. Add a really long share name, and I bet that puts it over the limit, making the rendezvous registration fail and the server not start. That’s my guess now, anyway.
Guess I’ll have to check for over-limit txt records!

It WAS the text length! I’m up and running now. Playlists are quite different. But I’m just starting on this thing, so…. THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
