Windows Media Player-internet radio streams don't play

Problem of Audio streaming with WMP__

Hello

I try to play the audio with wmp as a customer of an authenticated http stream internet radio (continuous 24/7). WMP stops playing each time meter hits 99 h and 23-25 minutes.

I get the same result of different PCs running the two Vista (Home Basic SP1) and XP (unknown version) which is totally different places and with different user names.

I also have the same result regardless of using the embedded wmp (6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6) or standalone player (file version 11.0.6001.7008 / product version 11.0.6000.6324)

The flow MP3 96kbit and the streamserver is Icecast using basic http authentication.

When the time counter reaches 99.25 animating text buffer/station name: running on empty and the music stop and the icon of control going on pause icon display (as in playback) to display the play button (as when paused).

When you press play after stopping the unexcpected it starts just the animation buffer without any response. The program must be restarted.

I set up new test accounts with Winamp and VLC, I thought it could have been a kind of default authentication time-out value drop the customer or some kind of new authentication problem.

I couldn't reproduce the problem with Winamp or VLC, both continue to play without problems.

If it is problem specific WMP or perhaps the configuration problem in version stand alone or set up missed in the embedded version, I'd appreciate some advice.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

  • Windows media player 11 in XP does not play DRM files

    I have a new installation of SP3 and the latest WMP11 on XP Home.

    I get this error when I try to play any DRM file any provider:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/Webhelp/default.aspx?&mpver=11.0.5721.5262&ID=C00D11B1&ContextId=71&OriginalID=80070057
    You met the C00D11B1 error message when you use Windows Media Player.
    Original Original error error Code
    80070057 one or more arguments are invalid.

    All other types of video or audio files that are not protected by DRM play without problem, so there is no problem with the audio device or the ID3 headers because none of the DRM files I've tried are MP3s.

    Many hours of research I find that the error is returned for various problems. I tried all the solutions, and none of them solve the problem.  It may be missing or conflicting codecs like all types of files not DRM play without problem. The quartz.dll is recorded and uncorrupted. I reinstalled WMP11 several times. I have reset the DRM with Microsoft tools both Netlix and individualized WMP11 using several MS individualazition sites and by force using the command-line of the several times with each reinstall.

    The last thing I tried is to use the resetDRM tool and not to individualize and then installed Amazon Unbox for rentals and video purchases. I ran the troubleshooting included in Unbox and let individualize WMP11, then troubleshooting reported no problems with my set-up. I downloaded a free file short Amazon and although he'll play the Amazon unbox player, trying to read the file in WMP11 always returns the same error as before and therefore trying to play one of the other DRM files I have.

    If someone has another solution or an idea of what to check that the usual suspects?

    Hello

    Sometimes, this problem can be caused contributions file included with the MP3 ID3 headers. Make a copy of the file and then use an ID3 tag non - editing program Microsoft to remove or reset the file's ID3 headers.

    Caution:

    • Try to remove ID3 headers might damage the file and make it unplayable. Therefore, always make a copy of the file before editing.
    • Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.
