Protocol RTSP does not recognize Windows Media Player 12
I am trying to broadcast a live stream via RTSP and get the error: "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the specified protocol is not supported. If you typed a URL in the open URL dialog box, try using a different transport protocol (for example, "http:" or "rtsp:"). »
I read http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940029/en-us and tried the suggested resolutions, and they did not work.
I removed WMP by "turn Windows features On and Off" and then manually deleted WMP of Program Files, and files in the directory of the user. Yes, I restart after turning off the WMP.
The URL is valid, I can get through VLC stream very well.
I have disabled the firewall to try to verify that it is not blocking ports (you would think that it would not block ports since I can get the flow through VLC, but I tried just in case where).
I also reduced my security settings of IE for the smallest settings to see if it was a question of settings. Still have the error.I do not have McAffee (others have suggested that this could cause some problems with streaming).
I'm running Windows 7 x 64 professional. Other computers using Windows 7 x 64 Pro can get the Windows Media Player 12 RTSP stream (I checked that they have the same version of WMP that I do).
I compared the registry settings between computers that work and mine for Windows Media Player without success.
I tried to connect to the different RTSP stream and I get the same error, as shown above.
I could really use help I am running out of ideas.

How can I solve this problem.
Hi Nick91606,
KERNELBASE.dll is a file system of the operating system.
Method 1
I suggest that you save the file on your computer and check if Windows media player works.
(a) click the Start button.
(b) in the search box, type command prompt.
(c) in the list of results, right-click guest, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
(d) in the type command regsvr32 kernelbase.dll line press ENTER.
(e) close the command prompt
Method 2
If the previous step fails then I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.
The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.
For more information please visit the link below.

Thanks in advanceHi jimbosum888,
I never had any problems with Windows Media Player, but it seems that an antivirus program or a firewall is blocking Windows Media Player.
If you have installed AntiVirus or an additional firewall, just disable and try to start the media player again.

I don't know what I did. I was down loading a disc photos. Don't know what I clicked but now all my desktop icons are all of the windows media player icon and when I go to system restore and you click on it it opens windows media player also. help.........................
Hello
See if you can run the Windows System Restore as follows.
Shut down the PC. Tap away at f8 that you start the PC to enter the Windows Recovery Console. Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER. When it is loaded, click on the Menu start, open the all programs, open accessories, right-click on command prompt and select "run as Administrator". Type in the following command and press ENTER.
Rstrui.exe
I hope that this will launch the system restore. Choose a restore point at least 24 hours before the file association problem and then restore. When you are finished, Windows will restart normally.
Kind regards
