Hi Jim,

Thanks! I don't have any problem putting all my amature flicks in the
HOME folder :-P~~~~

I'll give it a try tonight. I've always wanted to play with the WMS, but
never took the time to learn it.

Thanks!

Pretty much; you'll want to place the .asf file in a folder that the WM
server understands; either the "HOME" folder or one beneath it.  If you
use
a different folder, you should define it as a unicast publishing point.
Try to avoid creating a folder conflict, though;
mms://yourserver/folder/file.asf could resolve to either a folder named
"folder" under the home publishing point or a publishing point named
"folder".  If you have a situation like this, the subfolder of "HOME"
gets
ignored and the "folder" publishing point gets the request .  It's only
important if you want to segregate your streaming porn...  8-)

Hi Jim,

Thanks! So, I just need to encode the .avi as an .asf, and drop it in
some directory on the media server? That sounds TOO EASY :-)

BTW: you are not a hardware snob. I'm a cheapskate :-P

Hi Tom,

    There is (was) a command-line utility called vidtoasf that would
convert
avi to asf for you, but it doesn't seem to be included in W2K..
    You can get the WM8 encoding utility from:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/winmediatech40/wm8eu/8/w982kme/en
-us/
wm8eutil_setup.exe.  I believe it replaces the old WMEv4 utilities.

Hi Jim,

I have an OT question on WMT servers. Is there a no-brainer method of
taking an .avi that I've created and slap it on a WMT server and have it
all magically work without me losing the two hairs left on my head? :-)

Thanks!

I've worked with WMT pretty extensively; what is the question?

Tom,

Does your book cover publishing WMT?  Microsoft's only Q article on it
is about as clear as mud. I haven't had much luck on my own either.

I have tried many of the settings within the WMT application filter,
tried to create packet filters, tried to publish it, etc but so far no
success.

I ordered the book today but of course I am playing the part of an
impatient IT guy.  Got to love a good technical challenge.
