For some reason the music and video files can only be accessed while logged in, and when a guest tries to access it either says:

Access Denied - http://www.juanonline.net/system/files/Juan/Nobody%27s_Fool.mp3 or
Error Opening File - http://www.juanonline.net/music (Pixel Player)

I'm not sure if this is really a problem with the module or something I have done wrong. Can someone help please? Feel free to create an account to test. I'm using drupal's private method for the file system.

Thanks,
Juan

You have private file downloads enabled. If you switched to public file downloads do you have the same problem? If not, than the issue lies with private file downloads. Do anonymous users have permission to access the files?

Tried it with both private and public and the same thing occurs. Also just noticed that when I remove "system" from the url http://www.juanonline.net/system/files/Juan/Nobody%27s_Fool.mp3 that the file begins to stream, no access problems, so I'm wondering why the link to http://www.juanonline.net/system/files/Juan/Nobody%27s_Fool.mp3 works for registered users only.

When the path /system/files it is going through private files. The path would be different for public files.

Do you have the latest version (either dev or stable)? Support for the private download method was implemented last week.
