QTSS can't connect with QT Broadcaster.

I have the latest version of QTSS set up on my G4-iMac and it is running. I
have QTBroadcaster running on the same machine and I can watch the feed in
the preview window. I have the correct host name ie the ip address of the
QTSS (This machines ip address) everything else is blank.
When I click the broadcast button I get 'Prerolling', the I get a box asking
for username and password. I don't know why because broadcaster and QTSS are
running on the same machine.

To try to overcome the problem I have added a file in
HD/LIBRUARY/QTSTREAMING/MOVIES called qtaccess and added a user, I then used
the sudo qtpasswd command to add the password for that user. I stopped QTSS
and broadcaster, started them both again and re-tried to connect, but no
luck. I just keep getting asked for username and password.

What am I doing wrong?

It's not supported on regular OS X, but you can install it and it works fine.
