Best settings for WMP9+

I'm using VLC to stream data from a camera to my Haupaugge capture card. The capture part's working fine, but some of the clients I want to attach to the stream are ones I can't install VLC on. They only have vanilla WMP9 or 10. So I wanted to know what mux & codec combination would guarantee maximum portability. I read through the manual and though an TS/MPEG1 combo would work, but WMP9 is crying. Can anyone help?

vlc -vvv --color pvr:/dev/video0:channel=1:norm=ntsc:size=720x480:
frequency=576250:bitrate=3000000:maxbitrate=4000000 --cr-average 1000
--sout '#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,acodec=mp3,vb=800,ab=128}:
standard{access=http,mux=ts,dst=gollum:8080}' --ttl 12

Thanks!

Matt

I find this works best for unicast to WMP.

#transcode{vcodec=WMV2,vb=512,scale=1,acodec=mp3,ab=64,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=mmsh,mux=asfh,url=10.203.1.9:80}}

Use mms: and IP address in WMP like

<Open> <URL> mms://10.203.1.9:80.
