Hi, first post here Didn't really know which section to put this in so... Hi. I'm trying to stream a .wmv file but have no success. I have tried creating a wvx file (below)containing the wmv 'playlist' which works fine when all files are running on my local pc but not when uploaded <ASX VERSION="3.0"> <ENTRY> <REF HREF="mialow01.wmv"></REF> </ENTRY> </ASX> I really want to get this working but no joy, I could change formats etc if I could get pointers on how to do so.. Any help would be great Thanks
Hey Tommy, In order to stream .wmv files you need Windows Media Services installed on the server. AFAIK DASP does not currently have the facilities to support Windows Media Services (also, do bear in mind that it can be quite costly on the bandwidth for yourself to do this). refer to this howto: on Microsoft's knowledge base. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/howto/articles/webserver.aspx ---- Brian H.

ah, i forgot...you can also (if you're simply trying to display the .wmv file through a browser) embed Windows Media Player 9 into the web page itself. It is a fairly simple procedure. If this is what you want, instead of "streaming" follow this howto: from Microsoft to see how it's done. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/howto/articles/adsolutions2.aspx ---- Brian H.
