    Is this on a network, DSL, or what? Sometimes network issues can
    appear as corrupt files to Media Services. Also, is this from a CD or
    a file on the system? Speed of access can be an issue here as well.
    The fact that the file plays on the server is never a guarantee that
    it works across a streaming connection.
