PROBLEM: Windows Media Player stops playing live streams aft |
|
|
We have a problem with Windows Media Player 10 running on Windows XP
SP2.
The player runs in a web page, and constantly displays a constant
playlist of on-demand videos (WMV files).
Once in a while, the page reloads, and the player displays a live
stream.
After the live stream ends, the page refreshes again, and goes back to
displaying the on-demand playlist.
The problem is, that after a while, the player stops playing live
streams when required.
We get the following error from the player:
Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the specified
protocol is not supported. If you typed a URL in the Open URL dialog
box, try using a different transport protocol (for example, "http:" or
"rtsp:").
Re-installing the windows media player solves the problem, until the
next time.
What could be causing the problem?
What can be done in order to avoid it?
What is the procedure of opening a support call with Microsoft Windows
Media department?
