Re: Yet another C00D1197 - Web-hosted video, not mms

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hmmm, interesting.

How do I ask for that to be done? Just ask the system administrator to
"enable HTTP on the server?"

Actually, that is an MMS URL - the WVX file is just wrapping it. So it does
appear that this is coming from a Windows 2000 Windows Media Server that
does not have HTTP enabled. Turn that on on the server and it should work
great.

Hopefully this is detailed and clear enough.

I am a college student trying to accsess some recorded lectures for
review.
Here's the URL to one of them:

http://engrsv19.engr.uark.edu/Mediasite/MediasiteData/PresentationData/2eb34965-dd9a-43b5-9a2b-4522e370cc81/2eb34965-dd9a-43b5-9a2b-4522e370cc81.wvx

I asked the class (electrical engineering students, various
configurations)
if anyone of them has had problems, and they have no trouble, but on all
of
my family's computers (XP SP2, IE7, WMP11) I get a "cannot find the file"
error. I have no trouble playing videos from anywhere else. I took my
notebook computer to school to try on that network and had the same
results,
though the campus computers work just fine. They use Media Player 9 or 10.

I have tried all of the suggestions I could find (on this board and
others,
the suggestions in http://tinyurl.com/yu658 and Web Help, i.e. ensure all
protocols enabled, etc.), disabled all the firewalls I could find, set
Internet security to minimum, to my knowledge, and even uninstalled WMP 11
to
use Media Player 9. Nothing works. I did find that the videos will play in
version 6.4 (mplayer2.exe), but that is a far less-than-ideal solution
because it is inteded to be presented on the Web (through Mediasite
software
www.mediasite.com) with a synchronized slide show of the instructor's
notes.

I hope there's enough detail to help.
****To recap:

I'm trying to play the video at URL:
http://engrsv19.engr.uark.edu/Mediasite/MediasiteData/PresentationData/2eb34965-dd9a-43b5-9a2b-4522e370cc81/2eb34965-dd9a-43b5-9a2b-4522e370cc81.wvx

Using all suggestions so far, I continue to get the "cannot find the file"
error. The file does play in Windows Media Player 6.4. All the other
students
can view the video (Some surely have computers with the same software
configuration as mine) normally. I have no problems with video files
elsewhere.

My primary system is a VAIO notebook configured as follows:
Pentium M processor
512 MB RAM
60 GB Hard Disk
Windows XP Home SP2
IE7
WMP11
All available updates installed
Intel wireless B/G Wi-fi adapter
