Earlier I was able to stream videos online from our company’s website in WMP directly without downloading them on PC. It is Windows Media Player 10 running on Windows XP Home. Now since a week whenever I try streaming any video from the same website I get the following error message:
"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, "mms:")."
I have tried doing this on both Internet Explorer 6 and Firefox but the same result. WMP is no more able to stream the videos. Furthermore, when I click on More Information on that error window, I get this:
"C00D11BD: Cannot play the file Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the specified protocol is
not supported.
If you encountered this error by typing a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) in the Open URL dialog box, try using a different transport protocol (for example, "mms:") to open the file.
If you encountered this error by clicking a link on a Web page, the link might not be valid.
Error ID = 0xC00D11BD, Condition ID = 0x00000000"
So far I have tried whatever I know with WMP troubleshooting but nothing seems to be working. Do you guys have any idea regarding this? Please help.
