Just to be clear, you are saying that changing the
response.write to Response.Write("<media
src=""c:\wmpub\wmroot\SoundOfTriState00030020-
2.wmv"" />") didn't work?
If yes, next thing to check is: What kind of access
control is enabled on the IIS box? Is Anonymous access
allowed on the IIS box?
It is possible that IIS has Negotiate Authentication
enabled (and Anonymous access disabled). If this is the
case, then it would work when you are logged on as a valid
domain user using IE to get the web page but it will fail
with WMS.
If indeed negotiate is enabled on the IIS, then on the
publishing point that sources from the playlist, go to
Properties->"Credentials" and set a valid
username/password that the IIS server will accept and see
if that works.
Thx,
Ravi
