Good news:
I found a solution. Microsoft was choking on the session headers. I
designed a toolkit to interface with MySQL transparently that relies on
sessions to keep things accurate from page to page as information is changed
in a database. I added a variable called (oddly enough) $no_session, that
if set prevents session_start or session_register from being accessed.
I also needed to add headers for Content-Length, and Accept-Range: bytes
As an example, the code I use for g2 is:
$a =
"http://music.chiaraquartet.net/".$this->parent->root->table->fieldsbyname[r
ootname]->value."/g2/".$this->cliproot().".rm";
header("Accept-Range: bytes");
header("Content-Length: ".strlen($a));
header("Content-Type: audio/x-pn-realaudio");
print $a;
$a is set to the location of the realmedia file.
Yay!
