WMP Streams this fine: anyone know why VLC won't?

Posted: 04 Jan 2005 00:36
by jordanolsommer@gmail.com
I've tried this with VLC 0.80 and 0.70 on both XP and Mac OS X and am still getting the same problem.

This URL works in WMP, but when I tried to open this stream in VLC, nothing happens - sorry for the huge log output, but I have no idea how to separate the wheat from the chaff apropos the messages VLC gave me. Errors are in red, warnings in blue, and things that I found interesting or odd (for whatever that may be worth) are in green. Does anyone out there have any clue as to how to resolve this? Again, WMP plays this just fine - same exact computer, same exact URL, etc.

WMP Streams this fine: anyone know why VLC won't?

Hi

There are WMV-Files which try to connect to a web site and display a form in your media player window where you can submit your logon credentials (for which you'll had to pay I guess...) before the media file is being played. I wasn't able to play these files using WMP6 and older versions of WMP9. The error message I got im WMP was: "The file name specified is incorrect. (Error=80004005). Cannot open. Please verify that the path and filename are correct and try again." After I upgraded to the currently available WMP 9 version I was able to watch these files.

VLC media player is not able to play these files. VLC starts playing the file, but you don't see anything than some weird colours. In the messages window I saw among many others the following messages:

"asf warning: unknown asf object"
"ffmpeg debug: ffmpeg codec (Windows Media Audio 2) stopped"

Still, there ARE WMV-Files that can be played using VLC.

Hope that helps
Regards, Richard
