Default WM-Player streaming audio.

Hi Glen,
Thxs for the link to the Tech Guy-- I read the post you linked me to-- the
poster couldn't stream video at all. I will post in the multimedia forum,
who knows, I surely can't be the only one with this occurence!!

Do you have XP now or just 98-SE, I seem to remember you were running both
OS's?? I'm happy to see your still in this group.

Very strange symptom, the song plays 80% and then just stops and gives the
error I posted. Hopefully I will figure it out, but it seems like WHAT's to
figure--- when the problem for me is only one large website, but I sure did
enjoy going and spending time.

Thanks, Star

Hi everyone,
Maybe a MVP can answer or anyone can chime in w/knowledge. I'm
experience
strange behavior of WMP on a website I've been going to for years. I am
giving a page location on this sight.

Exact web url:
http://www.angelfire.com/pa5/pattycarter3/MyLove.html

The files are streaming audia-- MPEG Audio Layer-3
The pages have the WMP control on them.

I know this isn't a problem w/my player, I suspect it's security related.
I
have added SP-3 to my W-XP OS recently since visiting the page. This
occurs only on this website which is quite large. Actually I have NEVER
seen
anything quite like this before, the player works absolutely first rate
playing audio & video on other websites.

* open website, music starts & plays 80% of song-- STOPS, dialog box
opens--
Error-- Windows Media Player cannot play the file because a network error
occurred.

* If I paste the sound location into IE address bar-- WMPlayer opens for
me
and again plays 80% of the 4:04 min. sound file.

** I receive same dialog box--. Windows Media Player cannot play the file
because a network error occurred.

I Click on more info button--
0xC00D11C0: Cannot play the file
Windows Media Player cannot play the file because a network problem
occurred.

1. Your computer is not connected to the local area network (LAN) or
Internet. Connect to the network or Internet, and then try again.

2. The path to the file is not valid. If you typed a Uniform Resource
Locator (URL) address in the Open URL dialog box, ensure that the file
name
is spelled correctly and the path to the file is correct, and then try
again. If you clicked a link on a Web page, the link may not be valid.

3. The server is down or busy. Try connecting to the server again later.
Some network protocols in the Player are not enabled. Enable all network
protocols, and then try again.

4. The proxy server settings for the Player are not configured properly.
Verify that your proxy settings are correct, and then try again.

I'm positive Microsoft IS missing MY REASON/OCCURENCE ??
Thank you.
