Hi -
I have a security camera which I am streaming on a Windows XP SP2 box using
Windows Media Encoder v9.
I have a recently purchased Sprint ppc-6700 phone running the Windows Mobile
5
platform. It's running Windows Media v10.
I can't seem to view the stream on the PPC. The error I get is "Cannot find
the file. The file might have been moved, renamed, or deleted...."
I tried connecting using the url of mms://123.456.789:8080
I also tried to create an ASX file on a web server and have it point to the
above address
with no success.
Both my encoder and PPC device are on the same net with no firewall issues.
When I use a service such as www.beelinetv.com, I can view all of that stuff
OK
on the PPC device.
I can view the encoder output on another XP machine just fine. I am encoding
using WM9 150k video.
Any ideas ? :?:
Any joy
did you get any joy with this..
im getting exactly the same problem with my m5000
supported codecs ?
maybe you can try other codec, such as mpeg4
how about using software live webcamxp??, with this i can view my how webcam on the ppc screen from http://*.*.*.*:8080/pocketpc etc
Has anyone got a solution to this? I've searched various streaming threads on this forum but can't find an answer.
I'm trying to stream a video using Windows Media Encoder 9 on my Windows XP home SP2 PC to my O2 exec via wifi, but I can't open the file with either WMP or TCMP. With WMP I get the error message "Cannot find the file. The file night have been moved, renamed or deleted...". TCMP gives me a similar "Could not open file" error.
I can open the file stream from my laptop on the same wifi network using WMP, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with the streaming. I can connect to the internet via wifi no problem from my Exec. I've tried using both http://<ip address>:<port>/ and mms://<ip address>:<port>/ but with no success. I'm sure there's a simple solution!
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated, particularly if it doesn't involve buying/installing any further software (I'm not bothered whether it plays back full screen or not).
Thanks
I know its a verrrry long shot but.....
Code:
--Universal can't connect to Windows Server 2003--
Cant map to a Windows 2003 Server share? Is it also a Domain Controller? Check the server for
start / programs / administraton tools / Domain Controller Security Policy
Then check Local Policies / Security Options :
Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (always)
change to disabled
I had to use that fix so i could map drives, i could browse to the shares but it just kept looping on the password dialog.
Is it possible that the same style fix could be done on your streaming machine. after all, you do say another xp machine can do it fine
worth a shot! after all those keys look disabled on my xp machine
Had the same problem. With wme9, wm5 and media player you need to add "/*" at the end ot the url. Hope this helps.
Many thanks for the replies. It was the /* at the end of the url that fixed it. Plus I had to use the internal ip address of the PC rather than the machine name or the external ip address of the router, even though the machine name worked fine for the laptop, and it was the external ip address that was showing in the connections tab of media encoder.
Canot connect Mobile PC to Stream (WM Encoder)
OK, as per others advice I tried to connact my WM 6.1 device to my Streaming Media over bith LAn and InterNet address http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:8080 with the /* on the end. This is better than without the /* - actually brings up the Mobile player screen - however then get the following message:
Cannot play the file. The file is either corrupted or the plyer does not support the format you are trying to play.
I can get the stream on my PC's though, bith XP and Vista boxes, just will not work on the WM6.1 handheld - all WiFi.
Any suggestions ?????
Hi all,
I'm looking for a program which could make my multimedia files stored on a WinXP PC available on my I-mate K-jam (HTC Wizard) trhough WiFi, resizing video on the go accessing them.
Thx in advance
Have you tried orb or MS Media Encoder.
Orb works through the Internet. I'd like to use my WiFi network only.
Windows Media Encoder let you only stream contents, so it doesn't let you you choose them from the "client" device, you're stuck with the content the server is streaming at that moment.
Yes, I already tried them both before
Have you tired VLC?
There is a VLC port for wm5. See it that will work.
Hi!
How do I associate the Streaming Media Client with Opera in HTC HD2? Now when I try to open streaming media in Opera it starts Windows Media Player and it doesn´t work. If I run IE and open the same streaming media file the Streaming Media Client starts and everything works fine.
Anyone knows if there are some way to stream from a Windows Mobile to a Squeezebox? Now that we can run Spotify on a Windows Mobile it would be great if we could stream the data wireless over wifi like dsbridge but on WM.
I am currently syncing over WiFi with Winamp, and it works fine.
But I am finding that I like Windows Media Player's UI more. Is there any way I can sync over WiFi with Windows Media Player? Google rendered no help.
