Re: Streaming Media Services and Media Player 11

Mike.....Thnaks for your reply, now I have something to work with. And
thanks also for the heads up on the TCP port number also. Does that port
have to be open for both the server and the client?

Is there somewhere within Windows Media Services where I need to turn on
RTSP or is it active by default.

Again, thanks for your time......RDK

I don't know whether WMP11 support the MMS protocol. I know Microsoft has
deprecated it previously.

You should be able to use "rtsp://server/pubpoint"; just as well from
within WMP, assuming you have those protocols enabled in WMS. You'll also
need to ensure port 554 is open (for TCP at least.) You can use "rtspt:"
to force TCP and "rtspu:" to force UDP.

....I have read several recent posts and I believe I understand that
video streamed from Window 2000 server and Windows Media Services
Version 4 using
MMS protocol will no longer work with Media Player 11. Correct? For my
part I can not seem to get any protocol to stream to Media Player 11
with my server setup??

For now I have no choice, I am stuck with Window 2000 Server. If I
understand correctly, Windows Media Services Version 9 will only run on
Window Server 2003, so I am also stuck with Windows Media Services ver
4.

Several posts have indicated that I need to change from "MMS" streaming
protocol to "RSTP" or "HTTP" in my ASX files. This is pretty straight
forward as my
application is fairly well contained and available to a small/limited
audience.

However, my tests pasting a modified URL into Media Player 11 using
either RSTP or HTTP or modifying selected ASX files did not work and
gave me an error message that the file was not found. If I use HTTP and
point to the "real" folder on the website (as opposed to the Media
Services "alias") then the video plays fine, but I suspect it is not
being streamed (??).

Do I have any options for streaming video from this Window 2000 Server
to WP11 clients? Do I have to change something on the Window 2000
Server or Media Services to activate RSTP?

Also, what are the operational differences between RSTP and HTTP
monikers in my ASX files?

Thanks in advance for any help and advice you can supply.......Rob aka
