Windows Media
Troubleshooting
If you are behind a corporate firewall, you might have trouble viewing
streaming media content. To overcome this problem, you will need to connect
to the broadcast site from outside the firewall or ask your MIS department
to open the port which supports audio and video streaming specific to the
technology.
Windows Media Player Firewall Information:
You will need to either connect to the broadcast site from outside of the
firewall or ask your MIS department to open port 80 which supports audio and
video streaming.
If you continue to experience problems, follow these steps to configure
Windows Media Player to receive content through HTTP only:
Start the Windows Media Player.
Select View/Options and select the Advanced tab.
Click on the 'Change' button.
Verify under the Protocols field that the HTTP option is checked.
Click on the 'Use browser proxy settings' option.
In the Port field enter 80.
Select OK and close the Windows Media Player.
NOTE: The HTTP Only option allows almost all Windows Media Players behind a
firewall to access audio and video content. Quality may not be as good as
the other options, however.
Additional technical support can be found at
Microsoft's Product Support Services for Windows Media
