Re: problem with WMP and firefox



Hello,

For me, if I bypass the sessionid checking in my servlet, playing video into activex works, I can watch it, but, as WMP send 2 requests to my server instead of 1, my server is twice more occuped...and it's not good with my large video files.
To answer to your remark :

apparently, WMP activex used in firefox retrieve cookies from IE!, not firefox's cookies.This may explain why when you launch IE first, it works.
take a look here:

Is somebody has a solution for my issues?
thanks

Wow, what a coincidence... same *exact* problem with my project today,
only I'm on a ASP.NET backend.

Here's the really odd thing: if I watch a video first in IE, it works
OK in Firefox. WTF?!

Smacking my head against the wall today over this problem... I seem to
be doing the exact same thing that this page is doing:

http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/testpages/wmp9.html

Only mine is not working.

Clearly this page is also doing some sort of binary redirection
because that data parameter is a php page, not a WMV file. So I know
this can work.
