Subject: [Live-devel] Windows Media Player?

Hey guys -

I have the live555StreamingServer serving up MPEG2-TS files for me, and it 
works great!

When I view it with VNC, everything is perfect - yet when I connect with 
non-standards-compliant Windows Media Player to view the RTSP stream, it fails.

I've wiresharked the handshake, and it's almost right (DESCRIBE, SETUP) up to 
the point where you would excpect a "PLAY" command to be issued, at which point 
the WMP for some reason issues an HTTP GET on the file (complete with http 
headers).

I'm sure I'm not the first to have hit this - so has anyone out there modified 
the live555server codebase to allow this hackney WMP handshake to work?

Without support for WMP, I'm sorta dead in the water.

K
