Problem streaming to Media Player 9 for Mac |
|
|
Hello,
We're having problems opening a stream with Media Player 9 for Mac. All of
our Macs report the same error messages. According to my boss, the same
file/stream worked in the past, but stopped working for Macs for unknown
reason.
An example stream:
mms://msmedia.wwwcomm.com/webcast/coldslow.wmv
There are no problems playing this stream on Windows. On the Mac it takes a
very long time before anything happens and then eventually, "The server
cannot complete the invalid request."
mmst://msmedia.wwwcomm.com/webcast/coldslow.wmv
yields "Windows Media Player cannot play this file, because the Player does
not support this format." and
mmsu://msmedia.wwwcomm.com/webcast/coldslow.wmv
results in "The server is not responding."
If we copy the wmv file to the Mac and open it locally, Windows Media Player
plays it without problems.
Please advise.
Thank you,
