<p>While most video streaming web sites have moved to flash based, some stuck with WMP. Then the problem is likely to be more complicated than just installing newer version. If you have the problem like no video &amp; audio, but it says buffering then “ready”, then the way that might help is forcing WMP to use HTTP protocol only and all multicast by following procedures. </p>
<p>1. open WMP <br />2. Menu: tools &gt; options (if you can find it, click &quot;alt&quot; on the keyboard) <br />3. Tab: Network </p>
<p><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="WMP network setting" border="0" alt="WMP network setting" src="http://blog.10ninox.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/image1.png" width="385" height="227" /> <br />&#160;&#160;&#160; <font color="#a40000">uncheck RTSP/*,</font> but&#160; <font color="#009b00">leave HTTP checked</font> under protocol section <br />&#160;&#160;&#160; <font color="#00aa00">check &quot;allow to receive multicast stream&quot;</font> below. <br />4. Done! </p>
<p>happy watching whatever you want =) </p>
