IE6 WMP11 Plugin not working
in [Windows XP]
|
From: none on 4 Jun 2010 09:17 Just went to this site with IE6: http://globalwarming.house.gov/spillcam and found the WPM v11 plugin does not activate. There is nothing in the window where WPM should be displaying the video. Can someone tell me how to install the plugin, where to get it or how to enable it? Setup here is XP Pro SP3, IE6 Thanks

Use Manage Add-ons and make sure this ActiveX Control is Enabled. Good luck, Donald Anadell > > Thanks >
From: none on 4 Jun 2010 13:04 Hi Donald Thanks for the help! Checked the setup and WMP ActiveX is NOT listed as a currently loaded add-on. It IS listed as a previously used add-on and is enabled. Any other ideas as to what may be causing it to not load on that page? Interestingly, I tried another web site which uses imbedded AUDIO (no video) and the plugin runs no problem, it shows as WPM11. Tried another site with audio/video and it too works! Shows as WPM11. <http://www.beyondtoday.tv/programs/archive/?Title=The-Blessing-of-Marriage-&ProgramID=bt011> The plugin shows as ACTIVE when on this site. We use a rather big hosts file here, does a great job of helping prevent 'unwanted pests' from creeping into the system; disabled that and still no picture. The issue so far seems to be specific to that site. Any other thoughts as to how to fix it? I was wondering if it has anything to do with file associations. WPM here is configured with virtually NO file associations. Your thoughts ...

WPM here is configured with virtually NO > file associations. Your thoughts ... The site you originally posted is using .asx files that point to the actual video stream. If you look inside one of the .asx files that are cashed from that site you will see something like this: HREF="mms://a1524.l9789235523.c97892.g.lm.akamaistream.net/D/1524/97892/v0001/reflector:35523" /> It's possible that your file association for .asx files is hosed? You will be better served asking for help on this issue in the Windows Media Player discussion group.
