My main computer streams spotify to my synology NAS with the aid of DSsoundbridge.dll
which sends the audio as a MP3-stream (with metadata) on port 8124

The URL which I enter into my synologyNAS is very simple:
http://192.168.1.8:8124/
And the NAS picks it up from there and sweet music enters my livingroom

I would like to have my ATV2 play the same stream upstairs.
So I tried following the wiki for xbmc (it is a bit vague in this area)
I create a strm file called spotify.strm and enter the URL exactly as stated above
save it in my music catalogue where xbmc can open it.
And after some waiting I get an error message and the log says:

What am I doing wrong?
ATV2 is running xbmc 12.0
