User Manual “Streaming Client“ - V1.31 - 8. Jan. 2007
mms:// URL syntax
The MMS protocol is the Microsoft HTTP Streaming
Protocol (MMS over HTTP) and is used by most Internet
radio stations broadcasting in ASF. Only WMA/ASF
streaming is supported with this protocol e.g.:
•
“mms://host.com/topten/stream.asf”
Full URL is supported; the file to be played can be on a
remote server running on an arbitrary port e.g.:
•
“mms://host.com:12345/topten/stream.asf”
To support authentication, username and password can
be provided e.g.:
•
“mms://user1:[email protected]:88/stream.asf”
Notes
: There is no “HTTP Proxy server” support for
this protocol.
If the WMA stream is not played you should change the
protocol to “mmst://…” (see description below) to try if
the stream is delivered as MMS over TCP.
