I have a media center 2005 PC. When I log into that PC over remote desktop
100Mbps LAN connection, and attempt to watch DVR-MS files using windows media
Player 10, the player attempts to download codecs from the internet. Then it
plays the files with audio only and no picture.

When I attempt to play the same files locally, they play fine on both Media
Center and in WMP10.

Why can't I watch the DVR-MS files using WMP10 over remote desktop when my
LAN connection is fast enough?
