radio works in Windows Media Player but not in kmplayer

[bobyang]

Hi,

I have been facing a problem. I create a list of radios in kmplayer but I found they wont' play in kmplayer. I always get "Error Num:FFFFFFFF, file does not exist!..." How can I get over this to make kmplayer play it too?

thank you!

I tested again in WMP and it works without any problem. then I tried "ctrl+U" in kmplayer and paste in the address, I still get the same error message.

Try this url..

[Only registered and activated users can see links]


The URL seems not to be parsed properly in KMP.

Thanks. but no. it doens't work because it generates the "sessionID" all the time such as "4772EDE8-9FD8-484A-891F-CD5BB2EA0C92" so it won't work if you turn it off and try to access it again after 15 minutes. Moreover, that seesionID only work with your computer.

If it is a protected url, no other way than to use the authorized player. No strange at all. Probably, the URL should not work in other players but for Windows Media Player. It's something like a DRM-ed file.

no. it is not a protected url. it just generates the sessionID every time when you visit [Only registered and activated users can see links] it is more like firewall to them. this link will trigger and generates an *.asx in their server with a link which has sessionID in it. therefore, they know to open firewall for that link and perhaps they run the analysis internally to count how many visitor per day to see if they need to add bandwidth or hardware for it and so on.

in the other words. if you click on the link I posted, you can download an *.asx file and open up with notepad, you get a link (I think this is what you did). then paste that link to kmp then you will get two mms in the KMP list. then double click on one to play. It works without any problem.

so I think as you said it could be KMP parse issue or I don't set up KMP correctly.

thanks

PS, I try in Media Player Classic, it works without problem.

I try in Media Player Classic, it works without problem.
It didn't work for me in MPC-HC v1.1.0.

Tried the url: [Only registered and activated users can see links]

[bobyang]

thanks.

I didn't test with HC version. I used the old version.

by the way, I think I found the reason! I download the asx file (see the code below)
it returns with an [Only registered and activated users can see links] address, but KMP only starts from"mms://" so it misses the beinging http full address part.


I went to [Only registered and activated users can see links]
and got *.asx returns of this.
